Ugh, it was legit, but the transaction went sorta south. Basically, the guy was a newb, and didn't know that shipping from South Africa was going to be about 170-250 dollars. He quoted like 17 or something. While adding 150+ for shipping would have still been a good deal, I wasn't going to throw that kind of money at an ebay noob with virtually zero protection should he run off with that 150+. He completely understood and refunded me right away and apologized. He said ebay seemed rather tricky, and the new seller $500 montly limit was the only reason he was selling it for so little (and I guess he needed money). Said he would just try and sell locally instead.
It seemed super scam-o-riffic, but considering that he refunded me without question or hesitation, I'm inclined to believe he had the best intentions, but didn't do his research first.
Oh well.

Does anyone know the game Lords of Thunder? I was searching for some Sega CD games just out of curiosity on youtube. And MY goodness Lords of Thunder looked incredible to me even though I had never heard of it before. It's so unique. Metal rock music and bad ass shmup gameplay.
Anyways, I looked into it and it's like a couple hundred bucks on Ebay. Man oh man. Would you put out 200 bucks or more to buy one game that you really wanted? Or is there a better way to get it, iso or emulation or whatever? I don't know. I don't even have a Sega CD. This made me want one, but then again, getting a game for that much money? Why is it so expensive? Hmm I do want it though. I'm a Shmup nerd.
