WE ARE NOW CLOSED. NEW WEBSITE WILL BE LAUNCHED SOON(APPROX. SEPT 2005).

Nope. There's probably just a delay.

There are big decline in business to those who "buy-japan-sell-ebay" or "buy-japan-sell-homecountry" type of sellers nowadays..

Probably because the Japanese themselves now are swarming ebay auctions, so now very slim chance for non japanese trying to make some money out of the import business.

It's good to be like this, so more options to buyers rather than at mercy of the jacked prices of non japanese middlemen

I just think the saturn selling and buying scene in general is at an all-time low in terms of comparing 2k5 to 2k-2k4.... a lot of us already bought all that we wanted, and most these days are patient and not willing to overpay 10, 15 dollars for a title they know they can get for a decent bargain if they waited.

i.e. metal slug for 48 vs. 63 bucks

hey, every dollar counts, esp. in the long haul

It's been going on like this for a while. Trust me, the gravy train ended around 2001.

Again -- prices have been very sane for a long time. The streets of Japan are not paved with Radiant Silvergun... unfortunately.
