In Europe 400€
In Japan 1000€.

Six boards sold for 34,500 to 57,000 JPY (295 to 485 eur) in the last four months.
There was nothing wrong with the one that sold for under 300 euros.
Where were you getting a thousand euros again?
It's the prestige of being associated with Glorious Nippon, but to be honest I think it starts that there are **** western versions of certain games that lead a lot of collectors to conclude that all western versions are ****.geosnow wrote: ↑August 31st, 2019, 12:07 amtops, beep, surugaya etcnem wrote: ↑August 30th, 2019, 2:43 pmAgreed, Japanese shop price isn't indicative of value.

And if you are using a proxy and pay VAT of 20% and etc you end up 30-40% higher.
However I do not understand people prefering the Japan Version of PCBs. They are all 60hz and not PAL.(yes I know some are different)
Uhh, what? You're pointing to home computers and consoles now? Arcade PCBs have RGB output. not colour encoded composite...
This is generally true.
Tops says their In the hunt has damage on the board. They still want 98k yen for it.
Yup, I’ve been on a full-on, duffer streak recently!
I doubt I’ll ever buy again from Suruga-ya after my recent experience. But surely G-Front are the worst of the lot? Genuinely lost track of the number of horror stories I’ve read about broken boards.
In case you noticed I traded a nice Kaitei daisensou with all labels and holo sticker in the amount of €500. That was a fair deal for both.stt1 wrote: ↑August 31st, 2019, 10:17 amUhh, what?

Anyway, the topic was price discussion - even putting ~30% on top of 57000 yen open auction end price wont make more than 74100 (633e).
I paid 80 euro + shipping for one last year.Gill wrote: ↑September 2nd, 2019, 10:39 pmWhat can I ask for a original Metal Slug 5 NEO-GEO Jamma PCB?
It's the same as this one https://www.ebay.com/itm/Metal-Slug-5-A ... 4181959136
That price is a lot more than I can ask for. What's a fair price?
