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?) :problem:

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.

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.
