I have a chance to buy one of these, but I'm not sure whether to go for it or not - I am talking about the giant arcade sized thing, which is basically two arcade sticks in one huge unit, so you can play a two player game as if you were standing at an actual arcade machine :D

I know someone who recently paid £200 ($400) to get a boxed / mint one of these from Japan ... the one I have a chance to get is loose though. How much do you reckon is a fair price for one of these?

P.S. One of these:

When I used to watch Yahoo Auctions Japan on a regular basis a couple of years ago they were usually selling for about 5,000+ yen plus shipping, depending on condition. I can't imagine that shipping would be more than $40-$50 (it is a heavy item) to the US. I got lucky when I found mine in a little local store near where I lived in Japan.

It truly is a superb stick, best I have used on any system.

P.S. $400 is ridiculous, even for a mint set.
