For me it would be a tie between Zenki on the PC-FX and Gimmick! on the Famicom. I paid about $200 each.

Do arcade games count?

I paid $220 for a partial kit of Ibara. That was actually a very good deal. I'm sure someone from the shmups forum is going to come by and blow us all away with several thousand dollar purchase of a pristine brand new Cave kit.

Heh, ironically, I paid $140 for the ps2 port of Ibara, just under what you got your partial kit for.

Casey's 10th most expensive purchase would blow all these away :lol:

Probably Shinrei Jusatsushi Taroumaru for Saturn for 12,000 yen. I played through it then sold it for almost twice that. I may pick it up again in the future.

$75 for Lunar Silver Star Story Complete PS1 brand new back in 1999. Had cash flow issues in 2006 and sold it on Ebay for $75 including shipping. Regret it only because two weeks later my financial situation unexpectedly got much better... it was collecting dust anyways, and the buyer was a true fan and very happy, but damn I wish I had held off.
