$2,400 for a Virtual Boy game

[norkusa]

Now this is going to be a very interesting auction to watch. The last Virtual Bowling carts on ebay sold for $1,525 & $1,450, so this may actually sell for the asking price. Some of the other Japanese releases (that usually sell for $300-$400) have recently been fetching over $1k recently, so it could happen:

Just wish I was into the VB scene 5 years ago when I could have easily picked this cart up for under $500. Now it looks like my VB collection will never be complete.

Heh, a couple others asked me about that too. I've been thinking about holding a contest where the person that guesses what/who it is wins a prize...like a game or something. Keep your eyes open for a post in the off-topic forum the next couple of days.

$2300 from a guy with private feedback? WTF?

Yeah, this is that "Adol" guy that always sells ultra-rare imports on ebay. He buys them cheap off Yahoo Japan Auctions and sells them on Ebay for huge profits. Looks like he's starting to use private feedback now because he's getting too many negatives. His feedback on Yahoo is terrible. Has several hundred negative feedbacks out of 700 or 800 transactions. No way I'd ever buy from a guy like that.

Adol... don't even mention his name on the Neo-Geo.com forums. He had all the NGPC games, UK and JAP, and pretty much sold it off for rediculous prices.
