    However most games I bought are used. That means no spinecard and not in mint condition.

    They still are great prices. Lots of eBay sellers would ask 9€ for the games you got for 500Y.

    Heh, I bet you bought that GB Camera at Super Potato? I got 2 off them too in August - for the same price. They must have a container full of them in the backyard or something :lol:

    Amazing that it fitted into your luggage.

    JPN shop prices are awesome (just as on yahoo, mainly), but if you really want to buy LOTS, you also have to calculate the shipping costs home! I wanted to buy "LOTS" and had to pay... 40-90 Euro / package and it were 8 packages. Still, I think its well worth it. :)
    The worst thing you can do is buying trash games piece by piece off ebay sellers!

    you're right, I've got it from Super Potato. They also had lots of mint Donkey Kong Country 3 for 500 Yen.

    I had enough space in my baggage, but the weight was more problematic. I had 24 kg, but only 20 kg are allowed. Luckily you can have up to 5 kg overweight at Narita Airport without paying extra fees.
