    I agree with jcalder8. That's a trophy. You EARNED it. Selling it on eBay just... seems wrong. And I know, it's odd for me to say something like that.

    That's just like buying that Mega Man 9 press kit just to sell it on eBay at a huge profit.

    I agree. Keep that shit. Screw $280 when you can sell it years later for three times that amount. I'm just saying.

    I don't really see what the big deal in selling it is. I'm jobless at the moment, so I could really use the money. I doubt it'll be worth much more in the future, and I'd rather be able to buy someone a Christmas present or something than have a key that will sit on my shelf untouched forever.

    Thats damn cool, if it was up to me I would keep it. Also how did they know if you completed it wit the 7 days of release?

    That was me - I got my Divers Dreamcast earlier this year:



    There's a bunch of LE Japanese Dreamcasts -- the Divers one pictured, Pearl White, Pure Black, Metallic Blue, Biohazard Claire, Biohazard STARS, Sakura Taisen, Regulation 7, Hello Kitty Pink, Hello Kitty Blue, Maizora, Seaman, Seaman Christmas (plus a couple more).

    Several of those have less than 2000 units in existence (Biohazard STARS has 200!)...

    Tron. Free, just needs power cord and a little dirty. Family was moving to Germany.

    Sell it. It's an awesome trophy for a very impressive achievement, but if you don't want it then by all means make some money off of it.

    What I think is sad is the dude buying it. That's like picking up a bowling trophy at a garage sale.

    Damn, that's one hell of a find! I'd love a Tron cab, and you can't beat the price!

    Can we please refrain from giving SegaAges a boner at work.

    That thing is awesome

    It's yours to do whatever you want with and if you need the money then sell it for sure. To me though it's something unique that you'll never get again, because it's the one that you earned.

    That is an awesome find. I'd love to get an arcade machine for that price, the free one I mean

    I'm not usually jealous. But... I have to say that I'm jealous here. Free Tron? WHAT? Dang you! Fix her up. Make her look as beautiful as the day she first hit the arcades. You better cherish that cab. hahaha.

    Default Street Fighter Eternal Challenge

    I just purchased a copy of Street Fighter Eternal Challenge from an agent I'm training for $40 cash.

    http://www.amazon.com/Street-Fighter.../dp/0973865245

    The agent brought in the book to show me how cool it is. My jaw dropped. I offered him $40 cash. I don't think he knows that the book is becoming quite rare. Rockin'.

    You had to link your Gamertag or PSN ID to Rockstar's website, and they used that to track it.

    Yeah, I saw the ad and called my wife who called the lady and said we were the first to call and it was ours. She told her I get home about 5 and we will be on our way. I swear my whole drive home I was just excited.I've wanted this game for 20 something years. Spent so much money on it at Chuck E Cheese/ Showbiz it isn't funny. This will definitely be one of my games I will keep.

    I plan on putting a new power cord on tom. I would today but I don't get off until 7 and then a hour drive home so I will be exhausted. But once I get it playing and cleaning I'll do some more pics.

    Congratulations~!

    That right now is my last original video game related goal. I really want an arcade machine. I don't have that type of luck though. ^_~

    Fight Night: Round 2 for the GameCube. This is my second attempt to get this game. The first time I ordered it, the seller didn't include the game disc...she apparently accidentally included it in another customer's order who wouldn't answer her e-mails about it. Luckily, I ordered it through Amazon's Marketplace program and got my money refunded. Today, I got my second attempt...and this included everything including the game disc. It cost about the same as my first choice, too, about $8.50.

    I haven't been "on the hunt" for some time now as the local stores have been pretty dry and I've kinda been trying to scale back. Today the wife and I stopped at Goodwill to kill time while a nearby pizza joint was getting our pie baked. In the CD section I find a TON of boxed PC games (lots of Myst and Zork stuff) along with the Lucasarts game "The Dig". It's complete, near mint with the CD, Player's Guide, order form *for* the guide, reference guide and issue 11 of The Adventurer magazine.

    I played the demo for it a long time ago and always wanted to play it but didn't have the cash at the time to get it. Afterwards I could never find it in stores and I just forgot about it until today.
