anyone else shp there?

I am a collector and like my stuff NIB or mint.

Its nice to see such an old collection NIB at 'reasonable' prices.

They do need a new cokkin website and search engine tho - damn their DB is messy, and the category pages for each platform suck and youll see things like dead or alive in the RPG section...or Spyhunter in the Simulation section.

I just ordered a batch of titles from there

Tsugunai looks amazing, and I never got to play the Fallout roguelike.

I have never had a bad experience - they ship everything fast (1 issue out of like 15 orders - a few day delay)

They need a new website tho. damn i hate dredging thru their categories....

This is their best stuff;

And they do convienant bundles like this;

While the price isnt AMAZING - they make it easy if you dont feel like hunting down NIB copies of the set. Finding those three titles NIB on ebay would be a saga.

Yeah - but for factory sealed with the ltd edition memory card ;)

if its a nice game I really want, nothing beats NIB copies...the smell of a fresh sealed manual....etc...

I remember Tsugunai being really mediocre-looking, but it gives you like 3 different options for blocking, and it's got music by Mitsuda.

I like the premise of being a ghost who posesses other characters.

I use to have Tsuganai.  Made by Cattle Call, makers of Arc The Lad: TotS and Arc The Lad: EoD on PS2.  Not really a bad game, but kind get annoying (since you manually have to block attacks).

They're great.  I picked up a new copy of Rez for PS2 a year ago for $29.  I remember many collectors getting upset with these guys because they got permission to re-print rare games.  The collectors were concerned that their ''investments'' were losing value due to the reprints.  Anything to stick it to the swindlers on Ebay is fine by me.

I actually just had a bad experience with them. :(

See the two seperate orders I posted above?

Well they shipped my Eidos colleciton and Soul Reaver 2 immediately.....they sat on my other order for a few days, finally emailed me that they really didnt have the Fallout game :( (damn I want this bad) and refunded me $20 for it...then they WAITED ANOTHER day and finally shipped my other larger order today....Which means I wont see it till Wednesday next week due to the holiday....


They need a much better DBMS and inventory system, and a much better fulfillement process....they cant get an order of 4-5 games or more out in under a week ever it seems...yet 1-2 game orders ship the next day.

I wonder if I got the last one...I think it was in the PSOne RPG category?

Annoyingly they still list Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel as being in stock :(
