    he's just increase priced while he is out of stock (rather than remove then relist).

    Check previously sold items for the real price. This is quite common to avoid 40p listing fee

    The thing is though this could have been sealed by anybody at any time in the last 14 years, that's the trouble with hermatic seals over logo banded cellophane :(

    Buyer beware.

    I don't know how anyone can collect sealed US Sega CD/MD/Saturn games. It's easy to fake and looks like shit anyway... why bother?

    Ugh... The prices of good Amigas now. That's one system I might love if I approached it properly. Kind of difficult in the states. Maybe I'll get lucky and find enough space later to setup a CD32 at least.

    Probably the worst try at shipping cost rip-off I have seen for a long time.

    DECHA00A TEST PS3

    This console has been up for a week prior to this, starting at 400€ plus 270€ shipping. Now, its starting at 99€ plus 500€ shipping :banghead:...

    Wish I lived in the same country. Then I'd bid and insist on collecting the item personally lol.

    :) That could indeed work :thumbsup:. This time, he did not put the note of a minimum price in the article description; last time, he wrote "no lower price, min 670€ with shipping".

    Too bad I don't have air miles I could use up for this :banghead:. Italy isn't that far away from here.

    Buy it and do an ebay chargeback on excessive shipping.

    To start with this price would be too much for a complete copy, over the last year I've not seen an unsealed copy complete and mint go for more than £70 including postage
    now read his condescending description
    [​IMG]
    To begin with, it's only the icing on a cake if your cake is made of shit, terrible game. Secondly these £150 copies are sealed mint condition and they just sat on ebay for about 6 months without any takers, while this guy doesn't even have a manual.
    frankly I'd spend £150 just to buy it from someone other than this guy
    Also he can't spell elusive.....

    It isn't even complete, so it is worth * to a collector.
