Paid pretty much full price, but paid with trade credit on stuff that cost me very little but I finally got Dragon Force for 100 even. Like I said though, it was really about a ten dollar investment in trades. Only need 2 Shining games and one other to have all the non sports games for the Saturn!!!

That's really impressive. Congratulations. I doubt I will ever collect for Saturn just because of how expensive the games are.

I live in Albuquerque. The stuff seems to come in streaks. When I 1st moved here in August I didn't find anything worth mentioning for over a month. It'll be really dry for a few weeks then suddenly I find a lot for maybe a good week or 2 but then goes dry again. Contending with the hardcore resellers has been really tough lately though.

EDIT: On a related note, I almost pissed my pants when I stumbled upon these rare and highly sought after gems for only $0.50!!! This is was a truly fine day in game hunting history.

:lol: Well that's a lot better than what I see here in Worcester ma. I never find anything and the last couple times was the most I found in month's. I truly believe that when I talk to customers or employees they all say the same thing. There are people who are there everyday waiting for tuff to come out and take everything and there are employees who hide or hold on to stuff or even steal the games.
It sucks because I may never pick anything up like I used to but it would be cool to go to a savers and see someone get psyched to find a couple snes games and he wants to play. Except for dreamcast. I see dreamcast games i'm throwing people down for that. I'm not supposed to use my martial arts but ill be damned if someone takes a dreamcast game from me lmao!!!

We are all resellers in our own ways. That's like saying collectors don't buy games to later sell or trade to either pay for more games or other bills, etc.

Holy. Shit.
I thought so too when I got it, however the games stock has dropped dramatically, I imagine because of digital releases. Goes for like $20.

Does not bother me as I want it for my oXbox collection.

Considering they're removing the digital versions, it'll probably go up in price soon.

As I said the value of it does not matter, if it was worth $3, I would have paid the $3 happily as I like the game and need it on the platform.
