    I'm looking for the following japanese Dreamcast limited edition consoles to complete my collection:

    - Maziora
    - Biohazard STARS
    - Custom
    - D-Direct pearl pink edition
    - Seaman clear
    - Seaman Xmas
    - Sakura Wars

    I'm also interested in any other jap. LE consoles, e.g. LE consoles given away in Famitsu contests.

    Hope for some offers.

    Welcome GZ, nice to see you on here!

    I can vouch for Ground Zero, as can a few others who frequent the DreamcastHistory site.

    Hi Tachikoma. This is really a nice Forum with lots of die-hard collectors. I visited Assembler some times before, but never saw that there was a Forum.

    >>Sakura Wars
    These come up regularly on ebay....easy to find as long as you're happy buying off ebay.

    >>Seaman Clear
    Lingjr had one on sale last week...$800...not cheap...

    There are Sonic DCs floating around occassionally as well (not on your list).

    The Sakura Wars DC is only missing in my collection because it's so common. I'd saved money for the more rare consoles in the past.

    I'll get a Sonic DC soon, as i'll trade it for my second Partners Dreamcast.
    800.- $ is too much for a Seaman DC. I didn't need a new one and got an offer for 330.- Euro some weeks ago. Sadly this guy never wrote back, maybe i should give him another try.

    I would take it as a sign of a lazy seller...

    You're not the first one, it happened to me too :smt043
    Maybe we need a bigger button on assembler's site, as most of us have read it thru at least 5 times already and this board is what keeps the whole shebang alive :smt043

    Sounds like he wised up. One just finished last night on Yahoo Japan (new) for 76,000 yen or so, so I'd say $800 outside of Japan is fair.

    That offer was from a shop in Tokyo. This one is cheap and reliable - but totally lazy answering on Emails.
    Maybe i'll get an answer in the next few days - a mint clear Seaman DC for 330.- Euro is a really GOOD price.

    I still hope for some serious offers from one of you.

    Yeup, very good. Just beware.
    "If something's too good to be true, it probably is"

    I will say that if it's opened/used, the price does drop dramatically. There was a Biohazard Veronica model that was used, and was missing the cap for the VMU. Finished at 12,500 yen. :)

    The 330.- Euro Seaman DC is missing its manual, but who cares for a missing manual anyway.

    Keeps the morans out (yes, I know I misspelt it... and that).

    As for the Seaman w/o the manual... yeah, it does make one clench their ass cheeks a bit, but isn't really THAT important. Hell, just find out if it's the same as a regular DC manual and swap it. :)

    As far as i know it's a regular DC manual. Hope that the special limited edition Seaman sign isn't missing.

    I remember seeing your rows of DCs back on DCH (a couple of months ago), any chance of a updated picture? :smt033
