Hello, can anyone tell me if 475.00 was a good price for metal slug 3? After reading these forums I'm
Afraid to buy anything on eBay, but what are my options? Any help would be appreciated. It was so much easier collecting in the 80's and 90's. None of this bullshit. Thanks for all the help.

Jap. version? First or second print?

Did I pay too much
Or was it a good deal. It's been a few years since I bought any Neo Geo games. Just starting collecting them again.

Sorry about that, it's my favorite Metal Slug. It seemed like a good deal, any comments?

My comment: Stop bidding on games if you unsure of whether or not you paid too much.

Thanks all for your input and help. As far as the comment to not bid if I don't know what it's worth, that's why I'm here. I'm not new to collecting I'm just not an expert with the Neo Geo. Any help and suggestions are appreciated. So where is the best place to find out the value of a game before buying? I know there is a list on this site but is it recent info? Thanks again for the help

$475 is a good price if the spine is unfaded.

You dont find many nice copys of slug 3 for $375.

I'd say 375$ is a good price IN Japan.

475$ outside of Japan is still acceptable. There have been MS3 1st prints on german Ebay that went for more than 600$.

You must have a nice hook up then. Because everyone's prices are now matching ebay. And can you really blame them? Most prices here in the selling forum have been at ebay levels or even higher.

ROFL Soester apparently pulled his own bidding auction and turned it into a BIN auction.


a really nice guy I must say!

God this guy is annoying as hell, he got a samurai shodown 2 from here and is now trying to sell it on ebay at an inflated price :mad:
Traders do nothing for the community apart from making up daft prices that people are willing to pay for some reason, I wouldn't mind if they left it on an auction so it can find the right price but oh no they have to fix it, I’ve been watching this MS2 for a few weeks now and he started it off at $5500 yikes i wouldn't even pay that for a car.
