Yep, rancor and I went for that. We are both pretty sure that it's fake bids.

The working one on Surugaya went for almost half of that last week. The non working one 3 months ago went for 86k yen.

The box can't be worth that much, as @needaes aes and I went halves on those DS2 kit boxes a few weeks ago (they ended fairly cheap).

He's also hiding the serial number on the box (why?)

So definitely a bogus auction. I am done with yahoo.

I know this seller (and I have bought from him). He is honest and trustworthy. If positive feedback is left for the seller and the game is not relisted, I don't think we can consider it to be a "bogus auction". I am also a bit confused as to why this went for so much, but looking at the evidence the most likely explanation is it was a bidding war between two parties that got out of hand (which is far from a rare occurrence on YAJ).

UPDATE: Positive feedback was left for the seller. The "bogus auction" theory thus doesn't have any evidence to back it up.

Let's wait and see I guess.

Dear God, I spent less than that on the cab...

350 euros for the control panel, both harnesses and the surround isn't that high. Looks to be in pretty good nick too. I think I remember seeing a complete cab selling on here for 1500 euros.

Rare cab as well, if you need those parts you don't get many chances to get them.

I paid 300+ for a NOS cp + surround not long ago (not the one listed.)

Parts for Madonnas are not common at all, but it is a wonderful cabinet.

Because everyone needs a camouflaged cab in their sauna!
