I got metal slug aes english version a few years back when it was brand new for £150.00 from loaded consoles of all places, at the time it was about the right price i use to pay for aes games apart from kof 96 which cost me a whopping £250.00 from raven games..I part exchanged the metal slug game and it worked out I got about £80.00 back for it.

The internet never existed for me back then so untill I started coming here I never knew how much it now goes for.
expectedly I was very pissed off.

Whats up lee
get your ass over to chat its dire :)
Man that was unlucky about the metal slug thing, £150 was dirt cheap, and to think you had to give that PLUS cash for kof 96.
Makes me cringe thinking about it.
oh well, at least we can still call you ploppy ;)

I got KOF '98 for only $81.00 on an eBay auction back in November of last year. I couldnt've been happier when I got it. The only other outstanding Neo-Geo deal I know of is when I got a ton of Neo-Geo, SNK, and King of Fighters manga and doujinshi for only $210 (the package was the size and weight of a large cinder block when I got it (hey, no one said this topic had to be limited to just video games).

Hello everyone,

I bought a boxed Neo Geo -serial # 052664-, 90% mint state, from a friend of mine who takes great care of his possession. He never really liked that system and only played it a few times. There was a Memory Card too, along with 100% mint Art of Fighting, Super Side Kicks 2 and Samurai Spirits. I bought the whole set for 1000 Francs -that is to say $150-. My friend knew perfectly how it was really worth but didn't care in parting from his Neo at such a price.

I bought my KOF 2K for $70 from a guy in my city who was in desperate need of money. I met him in an amusement hall, he was all speed and angst. He needed loose cash right away to pay the rents and such. I made a withdrawal right away and gave him the cash. Then, we walked to his home where he gave me the cart, box and handbook.

Those are my two best deals. I must say it was really a string of good luck.

-Tadaima-

My best was a neo gold in box with all hookups and documents still in the bag and baseball stars and ninja combat for $200 CDN. That's about $130 US. Since then I've picked up nam 75, ghost pilots, riding hero, and top players golf for $50 CDN each and samsho 2 for $80, all US carts. Not bad for a poor Canuck eh?

I know you guys are not going to beleive me but the twin cabs and stack of carts (excluding the Slugs running in the cabs for this pic) cost me US$100 they came with a bunch of other cabs. No market in PNG for arcade stuff, otherwise they would have gone to the dump. I rescued them :) Now wouldnt part with them for all the tea in China. I do love the twins.They are probably the only ones in the country ?

Let's see....

Time Span (1995 to present day)

Back in '95 I traded eight 3DO game titles that I picked up cheap at a BlockBuster Games store for:

2 NEO*GEO AES US Consoles, 4 Controllers, 2 A/V cables, 2 power supplies, 12 common AES cartrdiges in great condition with box and manuals.

Around the same time I picked up 8 brand new Neo*Geo AES carts from Electronics Boutique for $19.99 each. Games included Baseball Stars 2, League Bowling, Samurai Shodown and other commons.

Neo*Geo AES Gold System complete in box in great condition $175 shipped.

Other good deals (new games):
Shock Troopers 2nd Squad for $179.99
Mark of the Wolves (English) $229.99
Metal Slug X (English) $229.99
Sonic Wings 3 $119.99 but alas I stupidly traded that game for Fatal Fury 3 back when both titles were new and easy to find.
