    Default Psychic Killer Taromaru

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...gory=3656&rd=1

    Yep, it's finally turned up again. I wouldn't want to guess how much this one will go for, given the craziness that is Saturn auctions on Ebay UK at the moment. If it goes for less than £150 then I will eat my hat.

    In fact, if it goes for less than £150, it may well go to me

    We shall see ... anyone want to speculate how much it will end for? I've never seen one in as good condition as this one, I have to say.

    Default uh huh?

    You reckon? Well I just noticed that www.videogameimports.com are actually sitting on a little pile of these - factory sealed! Pop over there and check out what they are asking for one of those!

    BOY AM I GLAD I found a seller who sold me his copy for 80 shipped!

    Thats right! 80 shipped. I jumped all over it.

    It's a fun little game, but you gotta play w/ auto fire on; otherwise it's just plain annoying IMHO... and I would definitely kick myself if I spent more than... say... $120 plus on it.

    BTW, I got the game 2-28-03... so it's not like "I beat the hype train"... I just lucked out and FOUND A SAINT!

    Default Well

    80 shipped?!?! I presume that is $80? Where on earth did you manage to get that?

    The auction just keeps edging up .. and there's still 2 days to go. I don't really understand why anybody bids before the last day on auctions like this one, but there you go.

    A whole LOTTA luck. :P

    It's all about being at the right place at the right time.
    It was a Brazilian too, and I dunno what they drink but they're sure damn nice.

    Another Brazilian, just last week, sold me his complete US PD Saga for 85 shipped. Unbelievable. I have yet to spend triple figures on any ONE Saturn game... and I do own Dragon Force (this one I got for 9 shipped), Taromaru, PDS, SF III, Garegga, Silvergun, FF Revenge and D&D Collection.

    Patience...

    Default hmm!

    Sounds like given a couple of years, you could cash in your collection and buy a house! Or perhaps you could just build a house out of your enormous stash of games

    Sweet.

    Anyway, the Taromaru auction ends tonight. I will be very interested to see what it goes to. Currently £132 ($240) ....

    My guess is $285... thats just insane. Even 240 is. Not worth it... but some people DO have the funds and just can't wait. I haven't checked since last February but I remember when I was searching for the game, it rarely popped up... I mean ... almost never.

    Madness... just sheer madness.

    BTW the Saturn mag complete lot only ended at $127... that's not bad at all.

    Yeah, $366 is crazy.

    However, it went for $456!!!!

    That was 80 bucks well spent by you, I believe ...

    OH MY GOD.... JUST, OH MY FREAKING GAWD!

    456 -- holy beejeezus! If you look at the 2nd highest bidder, I dunno if he was a "fake" or not... but whatever, the bottom line is he "screwed" the highest bidder... if the 2nd highest bidder never came around.....

    Then again, it's still the winning bidder's fault for putting in say, a $500 bid... as you never know what eBay idiots may do to try and FOR FUN jump up an auction like Taromaru can.

    At any rate, I'm sure he'll be disappointed with Taromaru as 456 is criminally insane.

    Default Hmm

    I don't think the second bidder is a fake .. the jrw guy .. I have bought and sold Saturn with him before. In fact, I emailed him after the auction to say that if he wanted the game that bad, he could always buy it from videogameimports.com - for less!

    The wheelaa guy seems to be busy buying up every Sega game going on Ebay UK at the moment, and often pays over the odds. He is winning my Shining Force CD auction at the moment - I hope that one goes the same way!
