What Your Coolest eBay Gaming Purchase?

Post by **racketboy** » Sat Jun 02, 2007 6:32 pm

Even though I got my Saturn and first batch of games on eBay, I think my coolest purchase that comes to my mind is a tall stack of miscellaneous gaming magazines for only about $40.

There were tons of old GamePros, EGMs, Sega Visions, Nintendo Power, some obscure TG16 mags and such. I have no idea how not that many people bid on it. It was really a great deal and I have yet to browse through them all.

What are some of the best deals or most unique gaming items you've bought on eBay?

I'm still proud of my PAL complete Panzer Dragoon Saga for 40 bucks shipping included!

I guess it would be my complete mint copy of Hoshi no Kirby for Famicom with a working battery. $20 BIN. That's not too special though...I guess you could say the experience of getting a famicom adapter for my NES was more interesting. I was scouring eBay for Gyromites, seeing if I could tell which had an adaptor and when asking a seller about one of the details an adaptor version of gyromite may have, he actually had a TI-98 adapter. It works great and I got it for less than $5.

I was pretty happy with getting Bomberman Online mint sealed for $10 shipped.

I thought it was a PC Engine Duo with Castlevania: Rondo of Blood and 3 other games. Unfortunately, it was a pirated copy of Rondo. I got a refund and I'm shipping it back tomorrow.

I don't want to bring the thread down, so I guess my favorite was my Japanese Saturn Victor. It was already a great buy on it's own. Then one day I tried to put my modchip from my other Saturn in it, but when I opened it up it was already modded!

I got on December 31 2006 exactly midnight a genny a sega cd a 32x with all the cords 3 controllers 2 six button, 1 3 button. Everything working perfectly and 25 32x games. It was for $96 including shipping. And my shipping is always more expensive. A few of the games included Virtua racing, Star Wars, Doom, Knuckles Chaotix, Kolibri, MKII, I dont remember the rest. Oh yeah I forgot I got a working game gear for $6 (including shipping but man that thing took a month to get here) the guy said it didnt had a game to test it and when it came I just pluged my old adapter a game and bam it worked and its still workin.

Mine aint that unusual or special - but my Agetec/DC arcade stick certainly pleased me most, and the Resident Evil GC I got my friend
