Does the MVS Guide reflect full kit prices or is it loose carts only?
If you're selling full kits to me, the price guide reflects full kits. Otherwise, loose carts.
I think the Neo market is at or near its peak right now.
Any plans on a Neo CD guide? I know it's probably a lot of extra work on top of what you're already doing, but I thought I would ask.
Was taking a look at the Aes guide and one game that really sticks out at me is Burning Fight Aes Jp and Us. This game was just sold here for $150 shipped and on eBay seems like the price is going down as well. I remember seeing a U.S version buy it now for $160 and didn't sell for a week.
Not at home yet, but even a quick ebay search says the price remains pretty on point. Last sold:
Last 3 US: 235, 202, 275 - avg: $237
Last 4 JP: 201, 300, 260, 150 (NG) - avg: $227
Other than the $150 one here, there is only one ebay sale under $200. That one was $187 ($199 shipped), sold at auction with 9 bids. It was a JP cart, ratty US artwork, and no manual. I don't use incomplete or mish-mashed items like that when putting sale data together, but if that is a JP cart, US art, and no manual is selling $199 shipped, then the market for that game is definitely not in the $150 range. $150 is a great forum price for sure, but it's not indicative of actual market.
Ok, how about this one Mike. http://www.ebay.com/itm/262848634653
I've also seen them go for cheap on Yaj.
CAN'T EDIT OP - updated guide below:
Greetings,
In efforts to create mass drama, hysteria, and an outlet for all your butt-hurt needs - below is a guide for AES and MVS i've been keeping for a few years.

AES PRICE GUIDE
Spoiler:-This is not an authority, but rather a guide
-A guide should be used to provide a general price baseline
-Condition / Completeness and number of items on the current market may tilt numbers up or down
-Prices are based on an average of sales
-Games w/o an accurate baseline are listed currently as NA
-Not all box and print variants are accounted for -Buy wisely
-Sales/Listings were observed on Neo Geo, Shmups and to lesser extent - KLOV/Arcade-Otaku Forums as well as ebay US and UK. Ebay France and Yahoo JP are also used but only as last resort as prices and sales seem to be quite a bit higher than US sales and this is intended as a North American buyer's guide.

I don't collect homecarts anymore but that came as a surprise. Those $450 are probably for a copy of SW2 with a badly faded spine.Stakes Winner 2 (JP) - $450
Master of Syougi - sold for $2,200 at nin-nin game little over a year ago. Was listed for $3,000 in neostore previously. It's now been sold, I assume for the full price of $3,000. NGK has it at $2,000-3,000. That's where the $2,500 price previously came from. I didn't observe any sales on here, shmups, AO, KLOV or any of the online gamestores that sell AES since the last update, BUT, I assume like most high-end AES it is going up, so I added a (+) symbol to indicate it could be more than that.
FYI, Breakers AES (JP) recently sold for 3,433 GBP:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Breakers-Neo-Geo-AES-JP-Japanese-Homecart-Great-Condition-Original-Rare-/182667166790?hash=item2a87cfc446:g:HskAAOSwuq9ZZ9Yj
Dang! I should of held onto my copy of Master of Syougi which had a sun-faded spine. I sold it around 15 years ago for about a tenth of that price.
