Title: Any place to buy Dracula X other than Ebay?
Post by: Malick on January 18, 2006, 11:18:31 AM

Hello all,

After years of procrastination I finally bought a Turbo Duo  :D

According to everyone I have talked to Dracula X is the best game on the system.

Are there any places just to buy this game? I keep trying to bid on them on Ebay and get snipped at the last second  :(

Other than that this system is amazing and Lords of Thunder rules.

Thanks, Malick

YHJ or Yahoo Japan Auctions is probably the best place for japanese imports. All auctions are in japanese and sellers usually won't deal with bidders outside japan. So around this I suggest going here Shopping Mall Japan (http://www.shoppingmalljapan.com/). It's a great website because they translate all the japanese text to english, and they will handle all of the transactions and S&H.

There is one more thing you should know about YHJ. If someone bids on a auction within the last 5 minutes of closing. The time gets extended by 5 or 10 more minutes. This is helpful against those snipers.

I got mine from JapanGameStock.com.  They get it in every now and then.  If you email them, they'll track it down for you.

You could try http://www.mailorderjapan.com (http://www.mailorderjapan.com/)

Still you have to e-mail them... to see if they can find a copy for you.

My only other advice for getting one of,off ebay. Is useing a (snipe program) or check for one that's buyitnow.

Don't buy it on Ebay. It's a very common game and is very easy to get ahold of on Yahoo Japan. Not only that -- it's much cheaper there.
