Looking for some opinions on this Neo Geo deal

[cityside75]

I have the opportunity to purchase a Neo and 7 games for $225. Here's what I know:

-It works fine
-It appears to be in pretty good shape
-It's an import system from Japan

It comes with these games:

Baseball Stars Professional
blue's journey
fatal fury 2
fatal fury special
samurai spirits
shin samurai spirits: haohmaru Jingokuhen (SS2?)
world heroes 2

It also includes one stick, adaptor, and AV. The system has no box, but the games are all complete.

So what do you think? Is $225 a good deal for this? I need to get an answer back to the guy ASAP, but I thought I'd run it past you experts first.

Thanks!

not a bad deal, and you get some good playing games to go with it. I would say it is a fair deal.

Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for. We are in the process of putting a deal together now. He's open to trades as well, so I'm offering $200 plus a NES in need of a new cartridge connector. I'll let you know if the deal goes through.

Well I did it, probably not the best time to be making such a large purchase but I rarely see Neo's popping up in this area for a relatively good price, and it is beautiful :)

We ended up agreeing on the terms I mentioned above - $200 plus that broken NES. I think it was a pretty good deal based on the research I've been doing. Plus, I'm getting my money's worth already just finally getting to actually lay my hands on one of these beasts - the cartridges are unbelievably massive.

Thanks swlovinist for the helpful info!
