I just trusted him this time because he confirmed explicitly that all spine-cards were remained their original color. I got the stuff from segagagadomain btw, he definitely knows how picky collectors can be. The prices were very good, but still it was an expensive package overall so I would've expected a bit better. Packaging was poor too: a tiny box in which everything fit perfectly like in a well-played round of Tetris, just so that there was no space for stuffing and many cases got cracks.
My email about this remained unresponded.

Well, anyway. I'll buy again from him for the good prices, but next time I'll ask for pictures with my name + date on it. I can't stand discoloured spines :evil:

As he is also a collector, I think he just find a way to get rid of the games he bought for cheap prices in a lot on YJA (or other shops) and make a quick profit. He knows he will not be able to sell them if he tells what the real condition of the games is. That's just a scam from someone "well known" in the community. He uses his notoriety to make profit on other users.

Good prices but for not so good condition games => rebuying games to have them in better condition => not a good price afterall.

Btw, I am pretty sure if you talk about this on AG forum (feedback forum), you will have the chance to have your post deleted (as I had some of my previous posts in the past: he didn't like them, he deleted them). Or maybe you will have the chance to get some replacements...

Not to make this a bash segagaga thread derailment but I hear something like this about him a couple of times a year, sorry it was you this time ave. EDIT: It's always a minor/major issue (depending on your viewpoint) so most mention it and let it go. Since the gripes are usually in Games Bought threads it would take a lot of time to find them as "proof" of my statement. END EDIT :P I agree if this is brought up at AG it will be edited/deleted. I've only been at AG a short time and I've seen a lot of abuse...er...moderating of threads there. So many good members too :(

I was going to wait and post a picture when it arrived but to get back on topic ;)

Segata Sanshiro for $20.50 shipped! The seller claims it's in like new condition so hopefully it is. No idea if it's complete...odd that with my Japanese collection I'm less picky of the completeness of a game compared to my US ones :ugeek:

Game Soft Set Sega Saturn for $2.37 & $19 for EMS (they charged another dollar for for a box which is fine).

I'm not sure what it is or what should come with it but I know someone here should :lol:

This comes with 9 discs including House of the Dead (with instruction manual?), Dynamite Deka (w/instruction manual?), Puzzle bobble, Daytona USA & 5 others in a zippered soft case.

What makes you think that case is related to the Sega Saturn? :?:

@segagaga

I did not know that and I haven't posted this on AG yet, but maybe I will do so soon. The Message Navi discs are not super-easy to find despite being extremely cheap, same applies to Clockwerx. Well, my quest goes on... to be fair though, the other stuff was in excellent condition and very cheap :)

I just wanted the disc's to be honest and at that price I couldn't pass it up. If it was anything more that would have been a plus :)

A new SFIIIs3 for under $30 shipped :o I thought for sure I wouldn't win but I'm glad I did bid.

I've really been surprised by the drop in price for both Scenario's 2 & 3 over the past 5+ years (when I bought mine :lol: ).

Yep, the case is definitely not Sega Saturn related ;)

Let us know if you sort the thing out. And for the spincard, we need to make a "Looking for spincard / Trading corner" thread here, as it could help people complete their games without the need to buy another complete one, and so not waste money.

Yep, they dropped in price, but SF3s3 was not the most expensive one from the series, SF3s2 was. Does anyone know if this is due to be released in less quantities ?
