Man, there aren't that many games you can spend that much on, unless you're talking AES carts, in which case 208 is chump change LOL!

Snatcher, lol - sorta retail priced but I had extra paypal money I have been saving if I could ever get it sub-220$, put 210 on a bid and won it. One of the few more expensive games I am after and brings me down to 1 game for sega cd/saturn I am want (keio flying squadron).

While its a ton of money, its money I made selling extras I had so used games to buy games. I somewhat justify it as I get deals on most everything else, sometimes I just have to bite the bullet and buy it

Whew that's a lot of cash for a Sega CD game. Strangely in this case the PAL version seems cheaper than the US if privately bought.

By the way. What do you mean with retail priced? Were Sega CD games THAT expensive in the US????

It's a lot, but I can't say I have seen a copy go for less than 200 in quite some time, especially in the condition I will be getting. By retail I don't mean the original retail price but that of what a current retail video game store might charge for it, meaning higher end

PAL games are often cheaper for the more expensive titles, Little Samson for NES is a great example of this

I've been doing the same as you.

Getting deals on gaming items selling at a profit and spending the profit on the more expensive stuff that I want.

Just pretend that you traded the items that you sold for snatcher straight up and forget that you even spent the cash directly.
