Im still in need of a good ammount of UGC's before everything on my shelf has a case. Ive got a few rare things kicking around I was gonna try and sell but I figured I could try trading to anyone interested. Im in Canada so I end up paying more for my UGC's than you guys do in the US (around $125 for a case so a UGC is as good as a dollar in trading value to me ;)) Ill just throw out some rough ideas of what Im hoping to get for these.

Heres what Ive got:

Worms Armadeddon w/ Box and cheap B&W reprint manual - 60 UGC's


Final Fantasy Legends 2 - 15 UGCs.
64 in 1 Pirate Cart - Not sure what this is work since I cant seem to find one online so 25 UGC's?


Tales of Phantasia Sealed in great condition - 30 UGC's
Survival Kids Complete - 80 UGC's

Id prefer to trade with regular members who have been hanging around the forums for a while. Hope something sparks your interest.

I got a poo load of black UGC's (they are in boxes, just need to be sent Sonic and Shenske, give me like 24 hours tops).  I am liking the idea and especially worms Armageddon and Final Fantasy Legend 2,  


Only problem I have is that with some basic math 100 cases / $64 = $1.56.  Your asking 15 cases X $1.56 = $23.44 spent on cases, plus another $3+ to ship it, so we are already close to $30 net worth.  Looking on Ebay right now, I can find the same game for $12.99, $17.99, and $18.00, two of them having free shipping.  I guess I am stating, I would love to trade some UGC's for your games, however I would be loosing my balls in net worth.  If I bought that one on Ebay, I would save $17.  Again I am sure you spent a lot to get it, and in no way am I trying to attack you, I am only stating that I would love to trade!!!!!, but it would be cheaper elsewhere  :(

Well I wasnt exactly sure what you guys pay for your UGC's so I just threw out a rough idea to start with. I can alwaus go a little lower like 10 UGC's or something. But I should state Im only looking for the clear UGC's. I would of went with the black ones if they were still beeing produced.

I have about 35 clear ucg's left, but the only thing I'd really want to trade for are ds cases if you have any (though it might end up cheaper and less of a hassle if I were to just buy them myself  :-\ )

Actually a US citizen, but the US playstation id's look like crap :(

If I remember from when I ordered last time, the shipping was pretty expensive, and $64 does sound right.

I'm on the fence about ordering UGC's aswell. I live in Canada below is the quote they gave me.

$42.00 + $25.00 FedEx Ground Int'l Shipping + $31.48 Cross Border Fees* = $98.48 USD$(FOB Simi Valley CA)

YES ... they ... do
Also VHS cases work, but that requires altering the covers and most cases are too small for NES games.

I would love to have the FF game, but I feel that shipping to Canada would probably outweigh the cost of the game

Sheep don't forget that we are europeans and those shops charge insane shipping rates for overseas delivery. ;)
2 + 3 = 23

yeah - it was a quote from shopperinc.com  -  they will only use fed-ex, but are happy for me to arrange my own collection if i can find it cheaper.  which i am sure i can, if i have time..............

they have given me the wieght/dimensions of 1 box of 100, so i will get around to it.
