What is the biggest bargain you've ever made buying a Neo Geo Game?
Mine:
Last Blade 2 USA NEW: 9.90$ <IMG SRC="smilies/loco.gif" border="0">
Japanese Neo Geo Cartrige in box(very good condition): 99.95 $ <IMG SRC="smilies/loco.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/loco.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/loco.gif" border="0">
That guy didn't know at all what he was selling... <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0">

Yours (i mean 'the Last Blade 2 deal') is absolutely outstanding.
For me, it's been 2 months ago when i bought a like new Metal Slug 3 AES cart for just 125 u.s. dollars (well, the equivalent of, since i live in Italy). Not like yours, but definitely not bad. <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0">

Metal Slug 3 AES cart for just 125? Wow, very lucky! <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0"> I wish I could find like that.

But I must explain one thing:

It was either the Metal Slug 3 (mvs) for $229.00 or all those 1000 yen mvs carts... most were majhong or quiz games though... still only $8.20 each.

Let's see they are:
Please note that these are the best translations of the titles:

Quiz King of Fighters
Quiz large criminal-investigation line
BAKA Mr. Mr. mah-jongg travel sketches
Mah-jongg 狂列伝
It wears out and is my まる子. まる子 deluxe quiz
Quiz 迷探偵 neo & JIO

I asked my friend to pick up any quiz & majhong games he could find. Sorry for the rough translations. They are currently in Japan & will be until December 2001. My friend is slow, but he gets the job done.
If you can translate better:

クイズ大捜査線
バカ殿様麻雀漫遊記
Mah-jongg 狂列伝
ちびまる子ちゃん　まる子デラックスクイズ

I also purchased Shock Troopers from an Australian distributor today for $30.00 us.

I'll be on the lookout for them. If I see them I'll ask him to pick them up. I do want to stress that this is a big IF... and if he does pick them up he won't ship until december... He adds games to mame and it takes him a long time to dump the roms. (Not just neogeo naomi model3 cps-2 all sorts of pcbs that have to be dumped.) Have you tried asking Laurent or Mike from mdgamesales? <IMG SRC="smilies/crying.gif" border="0">

Yeah I have talked to just about every seller you can think of, mdgamesales blows me off and says he has never heard of/seen anything like that. Laurent's eyes are open, but nothing seen yet. Called Aslan, nope, Videoconnect... they were nice, but no dice. Cosmico said they did not get them cause they did not sell in their market. Super Sellers in Japan won't write me back. Etc, etc, etc, I have contacted many many more. I understand about the probability of getting them, I appreciate the fact he will atleast be looking for them <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0"> If you hear anything or see them elsewhere let me know. These games are very cheap in Japan, but so hard to get over here for some reason. <IMG SRC="smilies/frown.gif" border="0">

another recent neo pocket deal: silver NGPC,
euro MOTM, U.S. neo turf masters, U.S. card fighters clash, euro sam sho 2. all mint/like new with all boxes and docs for only $79 (and that included shipping)

my brand new neo cd system bought brand new with 4 brand new games (KOF 99, slug 2, real bout and KOM 2) for only $240 shipped.

I think there are A few others but I cant remember them.
