In so many posts that I've read I see that lots of people don't really like to buy from eBay. I have spent hours and hours (read weeks!) looking for sites that are even a little cheaper than the going rates on eBay but have had no luck!!

Could somebody please tell me where to shop?! Staying in Scotland is great for many reasons but retro collecting ain't one of them!!! :D

BTW - I saw a copy of FFIII a couple of weeks ago going for Ģ110!! :eek 2:

What are you looking for?
PAL games?
Which games?
Carts only or boxed/manual?

Why donīt you ask here for trade or sell? :)

Cheers

Are you searching UK eBay or just general eBay? With the high-in-demand games, you're better off searching general eBay. Many sellers ship internationally, and you should be able to get a better price. This is assuming, of course, that you're not searching for only PAL games.

I'm fairly new to this 'hardcore' collection thang so I'm still trying to find my feet as what is worth buying etc. For the mo' I'm buying mostly SNES PAL games because a few NTSC games that I've bought for my modded SNES don't work (FFII and Mario RPG!)! But I am interested in getting NTSC RPGs for my SNES - like Secret of Mana or Mystic Quest...I havn't really bought anything from eBay general just the UK part but I think I might try it - the postage seems really high sometimes though!! Anyway, what do you guys think of this Half eBay thang then? Is it any good?

BTW How mush does Panzer Dragoon Saga go for in the States and is it easy to get working on a PAL Saturn?

Cheers folks!

You're in luck there - those two are among the handful of RPGs that did get a PAL release.
