I assume no one will sell his/her Metal Slug 2 AES (US/JPN) for less than $1000....

Too bad that those crazy fuckers jackup the price.

No, it's okay.

Only a complete fucking retard would change the price guide over that auction.

And the maintainer of the guide has more brains than that.

Shock Troopers 2nd is rarer than Metal Slug 2.

I've heard people are willing to pay up to $600............

It's open for reasonable offer now

(this is how you jack up the price)

You need to get a better job or go back to school for a college degree or something, because all I see from you is whine-posts. This deal is none of your business, so stop the whining.

What a stupidass.

It has changed already. <IMG SRC="smilies/rolleyes.gif" border="0">

You might be right. When you see that the game can fetch $1.125+ (that`s the current ebay bid) why should you sell for e.g. $600?
I`ve got US Slug 2 as well but in mint condition and no way this is going for $600 now.

I assume this is exactly the way MS1
reached its inflated 4 digit value - one
big auction that everybody was watching most probably did it. <IMG SRC="smilies/loco.gif" border="0">

Honestly what it comes down too is if your willing to pay for it, then so be it. I am not for price jacking but in all honesty, when anyone of us sell something, we want to get the best price for us. I for one think if Kenny can get that much for Metal Slug 2, then more power to him. I know it's uncool that the price guide will somehow get affected by this but that is the way it goes sometimes.

Hey NSX-T how's the practice going?

You are practicing for our race aren't you?

You better be or else you're gonna look like one helluva stupidass when I turn up, jetlagged, and still kick your ass <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

NSX-T - Yes or No question. In ALL HONESTY do you think Slug 2 is worth a grand?
And
Do you support price jacking?

Liquid - you coming to watch me beat your son on his home turf or will you be 2 embarraced?

How many carts would *really* find a buyer at 1000$? I think the scene is pretty well represented in here.... Lets see those hands. <IMG SRC="smilies/loco.gif" border="0">

Practice racing, LOL newbie. I am still waiting for you. When we race, leave your ego behind, and have fun.

Price increases are due to newer neo geo fans, neo geo wannabes, and poorer games. Look at the some threads and you can understand. MS2 US is $350-$400.

EDIT: If you are one of those newbies who drives a "800 horsepower Honda," please bring it. <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0"> Remember a track is different than a drag, and a drivers' license will not help you. <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0">

It's only short term just a bunch of people jacking up the price on a crappy game. I mean Metal SLug 2 has got slow down in it! Wait till that lucky bidder gets his copy and realizes it sucks.

Hey less of the 'newbie'. I may still be realively new to these forums but I ain't wet round the ears. <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">

If I leave my ego behind will you leave yours? I don't think my ego will fit on the plane anyway <IMG SRC="smilies/ohno.gif" border="0">

Forget Honda's I'll be driving a minty TVR -I was thinking Skyline but I'll stick with something Brit. <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0">

As for MS2 - congrats <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">
You do occasionaly speak common sense after all. <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">

BTW - do you get a lot of 800bhp Honda's in the Golden State? We're more into Mitsubishi's, Subaru's and other rally variants over here. <IMG SRC="smilies/cool.gif" border="0">

I will never pay as much for a game, especially when you can have it on MVS for cheaper!
