Finaly, Clies 2 day Japanese Mega Drive clear out is over on the swedish auctions site tradera. It was an odd experience, every single game I ever wanted for my collection and a few I had to read about was up for sale.

Things like:

Japanese Wonder Mega complete in box with everything
Never used boxed japanese mega Drive in mint condition.
Undead Line
Gleylancer
Twinkle Tale
Battleship Gomorra
Divine Sealing
Rainbow Island
Yu Yu Hakushu
Splatter House 2+3
And tons more.

Since these games rarely or never gets listed on tradera the prices were much to high for me to win anything really decent. Still I managed to snag:

Dragons Eye (Mah Jong)
Power Athlete (Fighting game)
Rastan Saga 2
Heavy Unit Special
Bare Knuckles 3.

But there were so many fun and odd games....and I wanted them all. Og why couldnt there be more $$$ in my wallet?

I know how you feel... I was there, got outbid on all of my wanted auctions. Before, I always bidded way over the average price on many games, and got them, with a big hole in my pocket. Now I try to be more economic, but never get any games :/.

One good thing is that a lot of people at Tradera with big wallets are unaware of eBay and its greatness. Therefor you can get many games cheaper at eBay than at Tradera, Phantasy Star IV for example.

True that.

Im mainly pissed about missing Gleylancer. 500 was a bit cheap. I should have made it 600. It would still have been cheaper than getting it on Ebay.

[kallbrand]

watched it too, did bid on a couple but didnt win anything either

very entertaining though, cant believe what some imo pretty crappy games went for...

I do consider it a bugger that I am not a billionaire, living in a large castle upon a large estate, surrounded by hundreds of beautiful naked women attending to my every whim.

I missed it.. 500 for Gleylancer is Not cheap though! It's not even that great.

[Joe Redifer]

I think I payed around $60 or a bit more for my Gleylancer. Is that cheap? I like the game just fine, it is good but it's not the best shooter ever made. Divine Sealing is.

[winona]

I would say that 60$ is very cheap for Gleylancer if it was complete and in good condition. Its not the rarest of the forgotten 5. Ive seen in on ebay a number of times. Usually with a set price of 100$+ And while it might be a while before it goes. It always get bought in the end.

Im not sure about the rarity of the FF. But I do know that Eliminate down is by far the rarest one. I still havent seen it available. Ever.

After that It might be a tie between Undead Line and Battle mania 2. Closely followed by panorama cotton.

I think Gleylancer is the most common one. But still rare.

[Zebbe]

How many copies of the FF were made? I only know Panorama Cotton's number is 5000.

[Joe Redifer]

I have Panorama Cotton, so that means there are only 4,999 floating around for you guys to get one.

[Zebbe]

I have it too. In an original Sunsoft box!

[Joe Redifer]

Oh yeah? Well so do I! Hmph.

[VinnyT]

Picture?

And Zeebe, didn't you find the tea cup too, or am I mixing up stories?

[Zebbe]

Nope, I don't drink tea, so I skipped it

[VinnyT]

I thought someone here had the Panorama Cotton teacup.
