After this system thing, I think theres no doubt this site is only after loot, IMO it's the same as NGFs site, just different guy running it.

Dion has his loyals, and people who defend him, and so does Shawn, just different sides of the same coin.

After seeing a new AES system go for over a grand a couple weeks ago on eBay, and people here were even saying how dumb that was, now Shawn copy cat's that price, it's all clear.

Plus what happened to the 500 price tag on the new systems? Sad...

The real question is how much did Shawn pay for those systems? Now i'm all for making money, but SNK is fucking broke, so I bet Shawn got that shit dirt cheap. I wonder how much of a mark up he put on them 400%???

If Shawn was saying 500 initially, then we can deduce he got the systems at less than 500 each, probably under 400 each even. Since he thought the 500 price was enough to make him money.

The system on Ebay sold for just under $1500 brand new:
http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1288326835

Now why should you blame Shawn for selling new boxed systems for $800+, when this other system sold for ALMOST TWICE that? Doesn't make any sense.

Also, the Neo Store is a retail store. Its purpose is to make a profit. Supply and demand dictate that the systems be priced such that the market will buy them, and it did. Why complain about him? Thats silly.

Shawn brought out Metal Slug 3 and Sengoku 3 English for very reasonable prices (relative to what we always used to pay for new cart releases), at about $285 each (we used to pay $268 each at NCS). I don't see anyone complaining that he should have raised those prices?

Your statements are two-faced and hypocritical. Look back at what you wrote and try again, because your logic is totally flawed. And you didn't even get the right amount on that last Ebay auction, it was ALMOST $1500!! <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0">

Oh really? You know you call TonK a NGF lackey, well your just a NG.com Shawn lackey, does that make you any better? No.

You proved my point with your post, thank's, you called the Neo-Store a "Retail Store", last time I checked, when retail stores get old stock in, they don't price jack.

Thank's for proving me right.

I totally agree with DSD and Drift, this site seems to be declining rather quickly. Their were some things going on behind the scenes that many didn't releize were going on, but now with this system thing, I think its out in the open. $1000, that EBay auction is nothing to go on, Now shit is gonna skyrocket because we flame other sites, saying their prices are outrageous, so many who come hear believe ng.com is the last word in pricing, then a system that was originally $500 is at $1000 and people don't know where to turn because the same shit goes on at other sites, that we told them to stray from, its confusing <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0">

Market control is what it is.
Shawn what the hell happened?

A fan site, does not jack prices, that is NOT fan mentality.
I believe that business should be seperate from the boards.
Its to weird these days, and to much about business.
(been that way, before it was just quieter.)

Your post still doesn't address the facts. The Ebay item sold for $1492, and Shawn sold the systems for $800+. Are those one and the same? And who dictates what price he should sell at? What rules are there that say he must price the systems at any given level? What country are you living in, that you would have the prices set by the state rather than the market? Think about it, its a free market and you whine because people are WILLING TO PAY those prices. Wrong country . . .

The Neo Store is not connected to this fan site. It is a separate entity, a retail outlet. It can sell items at whatever it deems fit. There are no "fan site" rules that say Shawn has to sell items at low prices. The market determines prices, period. If you're angry, blame those who paid $800+ for the systems, and blame the moron on Ebay who paid $1492 for his new boxed system . . . THAT is where the problems lie.

LOL what are you this sites spokesperson, why not get laid or something, christ...

Oh really?
Then tell me why there is a link to the damn thing to the left of me?Anything can be called a seperate entity, yet if it is so seperate why is it so heavily advertised?

It can sell items at whatever it deems fit.

Who said it could'nt?

There are no "fan site" rules that say Shawn has to sell items at low prices.

Yes indeed there are not.
Look how this site is advertised though, this latest move has people sparked for reason.
1000 dollars could save somalian children and shit, the greed here has become disgusting.

The market determines prices, period. If you're angry, blame those who paid $800+ for the systems, and blame the moron on Ebay who paid $1492 for his new boxed system . . .

Bullshit, you make the choice to sell high or low, as much as some wish they could blame another source for this, they cannot.
Other areas that sell extremely high priced games are a influence, not a law. Seeing that auction end shows where people are getting there prices.......Ebay is not the be all end all market, its full of morons who crave something so bad, (much like you and the female body) that it could never be seen as fact. Some people there are desperate.

THAT is where the problems lie.

No, the problems lie in the people that create this inflation bullshit, and seeing shawn price these for a shitload is reassuring of this philosophy.
BTW, chimp you know the name of Rugal's theme from KOF 98?
lol

Answering the name of this thread:

A little bit of everything,as always...

BTW,everybody coming to this BBS and sees the Neo-store has also the opportunity to read threads,discussions(and warnings?) like THIS ONE!
But making up their mind about buying and paying is still their own decision!

Wow, who would've thought that the sale of a mere ten home cart systems could create such a shitstorm? <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

/me kicks back, puts a marshmallow on the end of a bent coat hanger and then proceeds to roast it over all the flames generated by these new threads.
