thats quite alot, at the moment im only after sam2, i have been quoted about $130 for a neo 64 and fatal fury. i want the cheapest i can get really.$465 how much of that was shipping?
Shit... like $80 or something. It was EMS from UK to US (east coast).
You can talk him down some, from what I understand.
If you were thinking of getting all the fighters eventually, it is, in all likelihood, the cheapest way to go (getting all from Vektorlogic).
Someone got Rev 2 board and 2 (or maybe 3?) games from him for $280 I think.
Check eBay for pricing on the games, both Sam Shos go for ~$100 +/- apiece. Buriki 1 and FF:WA run $75-$100 apiece. Those were the going prices when I bought my stuff from Vektor about 6 months ago anyway.
Rev 2 board... not sure the going price on those. The price you were quoted sounds like it may be a rev 1 board though. Rev 2 board was the same type of JAMMA support as going from an MVS (95% JAMMA). Rev was mostly JAMMA, but you had an extra power connector and another connection for Stereo sound if I remember correctly.
Check the Hyper forum, Chris1 posted picks of a Rev 1 board and many people commented on how to tell a Rev 1 from 2 in that thread.
