2/13/2025: Localization News - Cosmic Fantasy 3-4!Rather earth-shattering news in the PC Engine / TurboGrafx-16 community: Cosmic Fantasy 3 & 4 has been officially localized to English by Edia 30 years later for the Switch! Hard to believe! I know their script quality is poor given the 1&2 port but still good to see. 
Picked up a PCE Duo from Keith recently, arrived in beautiful shape and running smoothly. Couldn't be more pleased!

It seems like much of the backlash comes from two points:
1) I'm not a contributing member of the forum.
2) My prices are too high for this forum ("asks outrageous prices for games that regular members literally give away.").
To be honest - and I've been honest since the beginning - I feel my contribution on any forum is what I have to offer for sale. If nobody feels like my prices are good, I won't sell anything and I'll move on (I've made sales here regularly since the day I joined). I don't participate in any forum beyond this capacity. Ultimately, this is another sales venue for me because, yes, I do run a business. As I've said repeatedly here, literally everything I offer here sells for more on other venues. I understand that a $205 new Somer Assault does not sit will with some of you but please understand that I've sold several at $225 on other venues (and those venues get their cut). That goes for every item available here.
That some members have given away sealed games is very generous but as a business, it's obviously not a winning strategy.
Shenmue - I've sold more than 11 copies of Shenmue in the last few months because...that's what I do for a living. The $240 unit was an LE unit, by the way.
I'd rather open up more avenues to move merchandise by offering it at fee-less prices than sell strictly on Ebay but I'll move on from PCEFX (never an issue anywhere else). I don't have the time or energy to defend what I shouldn't have to defend. For many of you, this is a coup of sorts. No grudges held, met a handful of solid dudes and made a few deals. C'est la vie !

+ one another that a dude sold for $80.
Seriously, I sell these for $90 on Ebay and Amazon. I've sold them for months. My stock is well under half what it was when I first acquired these. While some folks here complain about $80, people everywhere else actually pay $90.
So much haaaasslin' around here, jeeeeeeez.
Edit: ahhahaha, just realized I have these at 90 here. MY BAD! Back to 80!

Everything was packed up securely and he really put in the extra effort to make sure everything arrived without a scratch.
Bottom line: thisIsLoneWolf is an excellent seller and pretty cool person. This is probably the smoothest deal I've done in a long time. Buy with confidence!

Your prices are too high and I can't do $80 on PM2 just because it's sealed (no disrespect intended). Good luck with the sale.I get not paying sealed prices but I'm generally priced below Ebay on everything. I can do $21 shipped on PM2, for example. I can't compete with CIB but that's hardly my fault.

I have some sealed copies left and saw a spike in interest, now I know why. It'll cool down within a few weeks, imo.
well, we all know, it's just how badly it's gonna get fucked.
Never been a fan of the series but people do seem to love it. Neat to see a sequel finally happen.
But look, if you just wanted a good price on Shenmue you could have just PMed me.

Super annoying and it actually does happen to PS2 controller as well. Iirc (and I often recall incorrectly), this occurs after prolonged periods of disuse and is a lubricant used inside the controller and not a component of the rubber cap.

Buy/Sell/Trade / Re: FS: New Games, Controllers - SALE ON SOMER ASSAULT
05/28/2015, 06:51 PMQuote from: MotherGunner on 05/28/2015, 05:44 PMNo offense but these asking prices could start WWZ.All sealed and I offer them for less here than you're likely to find elsewhere (and I've actually sold multiple copies of every game listed here at higher prices elsewhere). Sure, you might wait it out long enough to get something cheaper from some dude taking photos with his flip phone and listing them as $0.99 auctions on Ebay, but in general I think my asking prices are defensible. Not everyone is down with minty sealed games - and that's fine - but they do command a premium.
And no offense taken. Sealed games are expensive and impractical but some people go for it. I like CIB, some dudes just have an everdrive. Let us celebrate our differences, not fight over them!
