Boxed Duo-R for £150
« on: March 05, 2012, 11:19:02 PM »
It's a good price compared to eBay, and it saves me the ~£40 shipping I'd pay from Japan.

I should buy it shouldn't I?

Seems kind of high to me but if the box/system/controller/manual is minty it might be a decent deal. It's hard to tell without having a look at the condition.

Everything seems to cost more in the UK so Id say its a good price all things considering.

If you're buying it as a collectible and really want the box, it might be a reasonable price considering your location. If you just want a Duo system to play games with you should be able to get a much better deal.

Yeah I collect boxed systems.  It's probably the lowest down on the list of stuff I don't have (LT being tops :(), but it's a pretty good deal at todays rates.

Well I'd say with the strong pound you might be able to get a better deal on a boxed system from the US eBay, even with shipping.

Cheapest on ebay US at the moment is $210 plus $80 shipping which converts to £182.
