Behold, disgrace at its finest accord.
I was on the Assembler forums and I came across these guys once more through a topic there.
This is a perfect example of what is bad about the neo.
It is really ashame a system with such great games, attracts the greediest people.

Damn, that would be expensive if it was in AMERICAN dollars, let alone British pounds.

Its just going to get worse and worse. I have heard this line before most likely. Now im saying it. (believe it was Lord Ill)
As a community we are growing at and insane rate. While few people post, the demand is horrible.

People I see as friends who know what neo is all about. Then there are those that only appreciate the bare materialism of the carts. This board is a small fraction of the collectors and gamers alike. We all know this.

Companies like this who jack things up to prices beyond the richest mind startle us all.
Here we are: Garou MOTW, released in 1999 and if this game is so fucking rare, why is it all over the place? This has been stated countless times. Real Rare games are not in stock. PERIOD.
Or there obviously not rare imo.

This propaganda is going to always turn eyes.
People like F and myself know what gaming bliss is all about. All I can say to the newer audiences, shed a tear you wont be able to see the beautiful art on so many good HC's. Be EVER thankful MVS carts are cheap. I dread the day when MVS carts get sharked with these hold backs.

Nobody in there right mind, even myself would drop two thousand on a cart and feel okay even letting the slightest hand oil meet it...
I seen some people in the selling forum adding fuel to the fire.
I got ahold of a VFG English from these assfucks. Now look at the price on that thing?

Nobody writes these prices in stone We all have to abide by, one moron can do whatever, but that one moron is still that. Anyone care to guess what inspired that insane list of prices?
Ebay, Mental Illness, Price guide acceptance.

Sites should never say "CALL" cause that in the neo world means past the K's. I say challenge these morons, and try selling them one of these carts you got doubles of... See what kind of share you get...

170 pounds for AoF 1? If it weren't actually posted in an attempt to screw someone, it would be funny. What a joke.

While I admit I used to whine about prices more then anyone here. I just could not believe one of the random sites I visit that carries neo games has the most crazy prices.

Its near amazing how bad those prices are...

the_move, I think Metal Slug and many others are rare. Garou is just "in demand"
I also would not take ebay serious. Many interesting things have happened...

BTW, how goes things?

170 for AOF. While I admit AOF is a pretty bitching game, and back in the day it was the SHIZNIT. (yeah, I played SNES port back then :p ) It isnt no where near the process of 1 anything...

Like I said, try to sell back and make a insane profit. See if they stand by those quotes.
