Wow.  I would've liked to have snagged it.

Hopefully someone here did... but more than likely it'll end up back on ebay with a 79.99 BIN :(

Seems like a decent price for a Samurai Ghost loosie. You can make an offer, too:

NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)
BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere. You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

Are these yours?  I want cybercore, BAD.
no, Just came across it in a Google search.  I snatched a PCE splach lake and shanghai II discs for 15 shipped from him.  HIs pricing is all over the place, but there are a few decent deals in there. :)

There was a system card 3.0 case with three games I almost bid on.  Glad I didn't since the seller confirmed someone took a pair of scissors to the rear insert of the system card case!  I still need one.  :-/

That wasn't that great of a deal, was it?  I paid exactly that price for LoT last year at the Portland RetroGaming Expo, and those expos are generally full price-fests.

Quote from: jperryss on 03/16/2013, 09:44 AMDownload 2 for $36 shipped:

Same seller has Kiaidan for $54 shipped. Is that a good price?
Download 2 is a $30 game, but has been difficult to find at an appropriate price since November. Be careful on eBay, as many of the lowest priced copies have had damage that is not noticeable in photos. It is a must own signature PCE game that is very unique and technically impressive.

Anyone who doesn't own Kiaidan should jump on it at $54, even though it's been steadily coming down in price this past year. Another unique and beautiful "only on PCE" game.

You should save your posts for a "not so overpriced" or "buyers guide" sort of thread, as they tend to be the kinds of prices most of us quote people wondering what they should pay as buyers.
Justin the Not-So-Cheery Black/Hack/CrackTiger helped Joshua Jackass, Andrew/Arkhan Dildovich and the DildoPhiles destroy 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! Him and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together! Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged/destructive/doxxing toxic turbo troll gang which he covers up for under the "community" euphemism!

Not a terrible deal, but the way the prices of Lords of Thunder alone makes up for it:

Not bad, but I already had all four of the games.  I hope that they went to a good home.

That is a great starter setup, hope it ends up in good hands. I'm about an hour away, otherwise I'd snatch it up.

I agree.  If someone's in the area, pick it up!  I'd like to get a Turbobooster Plus myself.

You could give it a best offer. I guess its better than some of the listings I have seen on ebay as of late.

There is a guy on the neo-geo forum selling a pc engine duo modded to play US hu cards, with 7 games including download and super star solider for $250

Has Dead Moon really jumped in price that much? Jeez.

As of recent yes - it goes for as much as all the late HuCards now - 75 without box - 100 with by ebay pricing. 25% less I'd say outside of retail.  Even less from forum members - mine complete with box cost $35 :)

I think that is about what I paid 2-3 years ago. I ended up selling the box and insert (I don't do boxes) and putting it in a case with a Sparky label.

Honestly that really was a terrible deal. They butchered the power plug port with a iron to I guess force another plug to fit. The system had not been recapped at all, no region mod, no nothing. Fucking terrible deal. Assuming it will be a good deal due to a best offer option is just speculation.

Maybe if it is 425 pesos... Someone got it anyway.
