    My biggest purchases:
    Around $120 for Gaia Seed for PS. (I've seen them go for $200+ recently)
    Around $100 for a sealed Salamander Deluxe Pack + for PS. (Didn't stay sealed for long, though. I love Salamander.)

    If I had a Jynx think of the things we can do together. She also kisses alot.
    Not to mention her breast plates is obviously hiding something nice

    At first I was thinking it was Panzer Dragoon Saga for a little over $100 (the best value I've ever gotten for my gaming dollar), but then I remembered Steel Battalion for the Xbox-- $180. Played through like three levels and then got tired of setting up the massive controller every time I wanted to play, so I gave up on it. Sold it to a friend for the same price I paid.

    Buy ridiculously priced game, play game, sell game for same ridiculous price-- it's the only way to "rent" good games these days.

    I paid no more or less than $150 for the big one: Radiant Silvergun. I was very lucky to happen upon a copy of RSG on eBay with a Best Offer. I think it was originally $180, but I negotiated it down to $150. I got lucky; I've seen them reach to MUCH higher prices. Still the most I paid for a single title, though. The runner-up is Akumajo Dracula X: Chi no Rondo for $100 exact.

    Keio Flying Squadron $128 (my original snapped clean in half and I had to have this game no matter the cost!)
    In back to back impulse buys, I paid $200 for Summer Carnival '92: Recca and $166 for Eliminate Down

    I have since settled down and am going back to play me games.

    Can't remember the exact price but, it was about 330 shipped for Renny Blaster and Bomberman Special a couple years ago.

    Paid $150 for Rakugaki Showtime for the PSX. The game is not worth that kind of money as a game, but as the final piece needed for my Treasure collection at the time... Priceless.

    In terms of high dollar games that are worth every penny, I paid $110 for Dracula X PCE & $130 for Radiant Silvergun. They paid themselves off years ago. Thankfully I bought Panzer Dragoon Saga when it was released, but that one is worth it too.

    Too much money on some items that's for sure. Especially factory sealed NES games. I've never spent over a grand (although close to it) on any one item but have some lined out to buy this summer that is going to cost me a pretty penny!

    My Collection - Well, kinda. One of these days I will actually get a pic of the whole collection and post it on there. Until then, I only have a few games in there with some additional collection info stuff.

    Well, not being a Neo-Geo or arcade collector, the most I've ever paid for a single game occurred in the 16 bit era. I'm pretty sure that when I bought Street Fighter II Turbo on it's release date, it was $84.95 + tax.

    I skipped on Phantasy Star IV when I saw it priced at $130 at launch. I got it a few years later for $25.

    $125 or so for Card Fighters 2 import when it was only about 5 weeks old. Sold various games over the years for over $100, but only that once paid over $100 for a game.

    I paid 71.99 for Hokuto no ken for jp ps2, which is expensive for a game on release date. But I don't regret it!

    Wow, a lot of triple-digit figures in this thread.

    My highest was probably $70 each for SNES Final Fantasy III and ChronoTrigger.

    This is my first time looking at this thread and I just think it's funny that someone got a NWC gold cart for only $1200 (a 2002 post).

    I remember when the Genesis, itself, was $130. That was fucking mind-blowing.
    Gimmie a game, I'll either love it, or pimp-smack it.
