Arseen:
Hmm how much you want for it?

I was insatiably interested and we have literally spent the last 6 months talking about it and negotiating its price. lol.
Well, today was FINALLY the day that we came to an agreement (probably with him just getting sick to death of me! ;D ) on =
Looking to flip it as I already have my SFC version that fits with every other Megaman game I have the SFC versions for (all apart from Megaman and Bass)......so want to fund the buying of stuff I actually want.
Whos serious? I will happily ship wherever in the world and will split the cost of shipping but I will ONLY send it via a method that gives me proof of delivery, and if its outside of the UK (which I assume it will be, lol) then it will be tracked and signed for.......typically costing around £8/$12 with very careful and diligent packing......so £4/$6 for whoever wants it.
Go!!! ;D

;D......sorry Arseen but I know PRECISELY what it is worth and have recorded on my database of game price trends/tracking many instances of it selling across the world (17 in the last 6 months to be precise)........so, I wont name a price because that loses me the advantage of someone who may have been willing to pay MORE than what I would like for it/value it at.
I will accept serious offers aligned with its typical value but of course take into account the lack of Ebay fees..........I am not expecting or demanding anything more than what it typically sells for, and that price for a CIB copy is pretty consistent.

I was just curious, and bit interested in manual (bit better than my curreny) and box (no gots).

So you bugged a guy for a year to sell it to you at a knock down price, just to flip it immediately? That's pretty cold! ::)

LOL!! I guess...........but this is the only way I have been able to amass a 406 game, 9 system, multiple arcade stick, multiple new special cabinets, 2 superb Bang & Olufsen CRT TV, RGB lead all round, multiple accessory, limited edition, figure's collection in the past 3 years whilst being a jobless student with a mortgage, Mrs, cat and all the associated bills! ;D
When I got back into to collecting again, my Mrs and I agreed that I would never spend "our money" that we need to live, as we existed (and still do because Ive had a lot of medical problems this past year and so have to prolong my degree) on a shoe string budget.
So at some point, I had £50 to spend.......and from that day forward, I have bought and sold for profit my way to the above collecting state I am in right now, I buy stuff so I can buy what I want! its the only way I can do it...........but rest assured, I am no scalper, I work my ASS off to do this and dedicated a lot of time and effort to the hunt
I actually enjoy the negotiating, the wheeling and dealing, the bargain finding and the general hunt.......almost as much as playing, collecting and displaying it all. :P
Ohh and Arseen, no way I am breaking it up of course and selling you the absolutely flawless manual and only general shelf wear on one corner box. ;D
If anyone is genuinely serious then I will take some better pics in better light tomorrow.
