This thread is just for people who are thinking about buying that game, or bidding on that auction but are not sure if the price is right :)

Suikoden 2 - complete

It will be around $150 AUS including shipping? Deal?
Well I bit the bullet and brought the sucker, I couldn’t wait around any more :P So was that a wise move?

Oh and could someone change the thread name from is to it? :)

I was lucky and got Suikoden and Suikoden II in a fleamarket deal and they were as low as Euro 5 a piece in good condition. Overall I bought at about 120 titles from that specific dealer. I inspected each and every game and that is the great advantage when buying ‘offline’ - save on shipping costs and verifying its condition first hand, not just from an auction text and miserable pictures taken with a mobile phone (this is a cell phone to all non-continental europe residents).
I also was not able to obtain the rarer/more expensive titles titles like Parodius, Castlevania: SOTN Limited Edition, Kula World, Devil Dice locally so I also bit in the sour apple. Retrospectively I think it was actually worth it to grab BIN’s and enter bidding wars. Some things just don’t come your way by chance…

59 euros for Alundra and Alundra 2 (shipping included in that price) - good or bad deal if I were to take it?

Definitely expensive. I got both for a much cheaper price off ebay. In fact even a sealed copy of Alundra 1 went for about 20 pounds. I’m sure you can get a better deal.

Whoa, WAS too expensive, I got both my copies from the UK and I paid something like 30 AUD shipped. Pay about 10-15 bucks each, any more and you could find better else where.

Namco Museum 1,2,3 and 4 $79 GBP too much?

yes, would also say a bit too expensive for the Namco Collection. tempting nonetheless because you would get 4 out of 5 with one shipping charge.

I saw that pack before but it really is too much to spend at once, even if those games are rather uncommon nowadays

In what price range should Parodius lie for one to purchase it?

Is Space Rider rare? Would it be stupid to pass on it?

In a way or another I think most of the Phoenix games were not great hits, so it might become rare one day even if it sells for a low amount.

Alex, I would get Space Rider. We’re sure that there are ‘not many’ out there.
