Thanks for speaking in my behalf, Caris Nautilus. Illicious, you bring up good points. Hopefully I can answer them sufficiently.
1)Why is the Ninja Masters cart pried at an insane $1200?
The English version of Ninja Master’s is extremely rare. It is unusual that I have had 5 copies in the past couple months, but I assure you, they were all 100% SNK authentic.
2)After all thoes disputes with chris R, Dion, NGF or whatever - Why do you consider trusting them more than !ARCADE! when you havent bought anything from !ARCADE! yet?
I have not bought from !Arcade! yet, you are very right! Remember when another party offered me a neo world mat (carpet) #3 of 6, for $2000, and the neo coin for $2500? Remember how everyone unanimously condemned the seller to be fraudulent? Guess who the seller was? You got it. Ray Young himself. I just browsed through my email history and saw where he quoted $280 for shipping on just the mat! I know I have been a sucker in the past, and I’m sure he’s well aware of this. Fortunately, I have learned from my mistakes. Use this link to brush up on my first offer from Ray Young, before neogeousa.com (of Canada) made its presence known:

5)Why did you give NGF such credit as to make a post rating "NGF Basher"?
Sounds like I should do away with the Anxious NGF Basher rank. At the time, it suited a majority of the members accurately. It was intended to harmlessly poke fun at NGF.
Seems like there is more going on with you and NGF. Maybe im wrong and im not saying that anything is wrong with that, but ide like to know the reason for all of this.
I assume you are asking why I’m buying large amounts of neo merchandise from NGF. It goes like this. The neo market is very limited. Honestly, never in my life have I physically seen a neo system or home cart for sale in a store. Now that we are in the year 2001, finding neo merchandise in quantity is near impossible. This explains the small selections of neo merchandise that most game stores exhibit, if any at all. NGF has apparently made connections as a result of their frequent trips to Japan. They offered me quantity home cart and CD stock, I accepted. If I’m the one purchasing the merchandise, I’m the one taking the risk. I would like to think most people see this as a benefit, considering they can now purchase through neo-geo.com instead of directly from NGF.
I intend to distribute Nightmare in the Dark, Sengoku 3, Last Blade 3, Samurai Shodown 5 and any other title that can be brought to home cart in equivalent form of the U.S. KoF 2K. This would require an investment on my part, but hopefully the prices can be brought below the $400 mark.
The fact that NGF has bad deals under their belt will not affect the way sales are conducted at neo-geo.com. I understand the negativity towards them, believe me, I’ve been there. This is business. I’m not buying for my personal collection, I’m buying for more inventory for the store. Take !Arcade!’s converter for instance. Just because the guy lacks business morals does not mean I intend to boycott his converter.
