I posted this on the GAF buy/sell list but I figured I'd post it here. Most of it is old but is 100% WACKY JAPPY. Prices are for the shitwits at GAF-I'll take anything reasonable (read: so you're not just buying it to flip it like some kind of asshole fatwallet type) from EB folk since you bastards will actually PLAY the games.

Frag wants new flight sim gear, wife is giving him the angryface and saying I need to clear out some older crap before getting it. So here's some stuff I want to ditch, and I figured I'd offer it to GAF first since you guys are cuckoo for japanese RPGs. Everything's below ebay prices, because I'm not a jackass and just want this shit out of the way so I can get a flight yoke+quad throttle for FSX in time for the expansion later this month.

Not Pictured: Set of official Samba de Amigo maracas, complete in box

Anyway so I've got the following:

Persona (PSX): In decent enough shape save for the manual, which is complete and not torn anything but has worn ridges and some whitening of the edges. Disc is in good shape, inserts are in good shape. A couple of annoying EBGames stickers but easily removed with some Goo Gone or what not. $60, includes $14.99 clearance sticker from when I dug it out of an EBgames clearance rack back in 1999. I'm a bastard like that.

Ogre Battle 64: Person of Lordly Caliber. Brand new and sealed, never played. I was too busy playing top quality PC games at the time and never got around to it, oh well. $60.

Samba de Amigo: Game and official SEGA Samba de Amigo maracas, sensor, and mat in box. Everything in mint condition. $65

Tactics Ogre (PSX): Bought used, it's in the same shape as Persona is. Disc is good, not great but plays fine. Manual is complete but a bit worn. Inserts are fine, rear case is cracked but cases are easily replaced. $65

Suikoden (PSX): Bought new at a CompUSA in Tallahassee for $5, never opened and brand new in shrinkwrap. Yours for the low low price of $75.

Valkyrie Profile (PSX): Bought new by me, opened but 100% mint and flawless complete condition. $75

Persona 2: Eternal Punishment (PSX) - Same condition as Valkyrie Profile. Complete and 100% mint condition, but opened and not new in shrinkwrap. $60

Paypal only for protection for both parties, and will ship for a flat $4 in the US, with more to Canada (but not much more) via Priority Mail since nothing's worse than waiting for your shit to arrive.

lol, the Persona is pre-owned and you're selling it for sixty bucks.

FYI for people who buy PSX Tactics Ogre, it has a documented nasty bug that will corrupt saves occasionaly.

I own everything you're selling except for Samba de Amigo but you want way too much for it.

Smooth Groove · « **Reply #2 on:** October 10, 2007, 03:41:42 AM »

Learn to read, Ichirou. Frag said that those prices were for the assholes at GAF. We get the special EB discount. I'll like to help support a fellow hardcore PC gamer but I have a major aversion to PSX/N64 graphics.

The Sceneman · « **Reply #3 on:** October 10, 2007, 03:43:33 AM »

Thats a nice selection. Id fully buy one of those off you if I lived in the USA.

Ichirou · « **Reply #4 on:** October 10, 2007, 03:44:10 AM »

I just skimmed the post, didn't read the part where we get the special sexy discount.

Fragamemnon · « **Reply #5 on:** October 10, 2007, 03:47:37 AM »

Yeah I'd definitely knock off bucks for EB folk.

I basically priced everything by looking up the sale prices for comparable items on eBay and knocking off a good 20-25%, if it's too much I'll just reduce the prices. *shrug*.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #6 on:** October 10, 2007, 03:54:47 AM »

I know you don't like to game on your consoles, but why not get the Ace Combat 6/Flightstick bundle for $150?

CajoleJuice · « **Reply #7 on:** October 10, 2007, 03:57:57 AM »

These games are all insanely long, right?

demi · « **Reply #8 on:** October 10, 2007, 04:07:38 AM »

Wow, most of those would fetch delicious prices on ebay... you could buy a new PC part or something after the scratch you make

I already have a flight stick and a separate throttle (and USB flight rudder pedals), but that's really for IL-2/LOMAC/CFS3 and other combat flight sims.

A yoke/quadrant throttle is for civilian flight simulation, which is what FSX is all about.

I don't have a 360, and if I did Ace Combat wouldn't be up there in terms of stuff I want, unless there is an unlockable complex engine management unlockable feature and realistic flight model. It IS really, really pretty and I wish there was a modern combat flight sim that looked nearly as good, the A-10s in the promo shots give me a boner (I knew one of the dudes that helped design parts of the GAU-8 avenger autocannon on that plane, his daughter was a close high school friend of mine).

Edit: Selling old collector's JRPGs for even nerdier shit, I'm awesome.

Do Persona 2 and VP have decent English-language localizations? I'm interested in both but wondering whether I should look for the Japanese versions instead.

The localizations for both are very good.

ill take suikoden - PM me if its still avail.

tiesto · « **Reply #13 on:** October 10, 2007, 09:59:01 AM »

I'd definitely be interested in that sealed OB64 if its still available.

AdmiralViscen · « **Reply #14 on:** October 10, 2007, 01:51:36 PM »

Do you still have Samba?

Ill Take suikoden for sure - but if you want a quick sale ill give you $100 even plus shipping for suikoden and the used/dinged "Tactics Ogre"

bluemax · « **Reply #16 on:** October 10, 2007, 04:31:36 PM »

Suikoden is worth $75? I should rip a copy of mine and throw it on ebay. I bought it for $40 and thought I got ripped off.

Fragamemnon · « **Reply #17 on:** October 10, 2007, 04:42:07 PM »

Tactics Ogre is claimed. I'm sending PMz out to everyone else right now.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #18 on:** October 10, 2007, 05:19:45 PM »

How much does Samba de Amigo and the official maracas go for now? I've got a set sitting in the den that I haven't use for two or three years now.

Also, Ichirou, do you ever see Samba 2000 in shops? I couldn't find it last summer in Japan.

recursivelyenumerable · « **Reply #19 on:** October 10, 2007, 05:34:28 PM »

ok, I'm definitely interested in Persona 2 & VP.

Synbios459 · « **Reply #20 on:** October 10, 2007, 06:21:47 PM »

I'm interested in VP to.

Himu · « **Reply #21 on:** October 10, 2007, 06:24:51 PM »

lol some of these are total rips but frag knows what's good. you can get suikoden 1 for 30 bucks, persona 2 got a reprint about a year back and now usually costs 30.

good prices on the rest though. too bad i have them. MWAHAAHA

Fragamemnon · « **Reply #22 on:** October 10, 2007, 08:36:02 PM »

VP is already claimed (for now)

Well, the Suikoden is brand new and unopened (hence the high value, good luck finding one in that shape) and Persona 2 is in picturesque condition.

I do think I might have overshot Persona 2 a bit, but I was going off of half.com/ completed ebay transactions on comparable items and then doing a markdown off that (and for the EB folk that PM'd me, I discounted stuff even further, since EB is good folk and will actually play the games).

If you know a better place to figure out fair prices, let me know. I got another set of oldie PSOne JRPGs I will be moving out as soon as this one is done.

abrader · « **Reply #23 on:** October 11, 2007, 03:26:09 AM »

ok I paid ya - I look forward to seeing your next batch.

Error2k4 · « **Reply #24 on:** October 11, 2007, 03:28:20 AM »

is that OB64 copy still up for grabs?

Synbios459 · « **Reply #25 on:** October 11, 2007, 09:16:58 AM »

Suikoden still available?

No, but I've never actually looked for it, so it might've been there and I mighta missed it. Want me to check?

Fragamemnon · « **Reply #27 on:** October 11, 2007, 12:57:02 PM »

Everything but that original copy of Persona is pending waiting to hear back from interested parties (or sold, in the case of Suikoden and Tictacs Ogre).

I'd sell Persona for $35 shipped for EB members if anyone is interested just to get it moved out.

next batch isn't nearly as good of games and will be bunches cheaper, but it's lots of JRPGs again
