New ex-reviewer auction with sealed Keio Flying Squadron

I stumbled across this one a few hours ago. While there's nothing exceptionally rare in there (unless I glossed over it, which is possible), the standard of rarity of the games is pretty amazing, considering the quantity.

I'd like to buy it, weed out the crap that I want, and sell the rest individually; seems like I could make my money back, and get tons of stuff for free. Somehow I doubt I can spare what it will eventually go for, though.

There's another, similarly good auction up, that ends in just under 24 hours. It is apparently the entire collection of an ex-video game reviewer, with tons of stuff. The downsides to the auction is that it doesn't actually list everything included item by item (I wonder if there are any prototypes in there...), and the seller is not the owner of the collection, he says he's selling it for a friend. Still, any auction with a factory sealed copy of Keio Flying Squadron in it is enough to get me to pay attention:

I get nervous when people don't accept paypal.

Speaking of rare-ass and factory sealed games, on videogameauctions.com there's a UK seller with a factory sealed copy of the U.S. release of the Sega 32X Spider-Man game, the one that usually goes for like $150 cart only. His feedback is 100% and he says he'll ship to America/Canada for free (though you have to pay for shipping if you live in his home country; odd).

Here's the link:

yeah
ive bid on that auction several times before
it never meets the reserve and he wont disclose what his reserve is
i think he was offering the deal to us members to try and get some hype oput about the site if i had to guess since its primarily a uk site
spiderman loose sells for $80-100 usually, not $150 as well
