Dude, you basically have my old collection....  and thats really odd!

I went through almost your entire Haul, and its pretty much exactly what I sold at MGC.  Minus some imports and two Duos.

What?  No Cosmic Fantasy 2/Ys III/Cotton/Exile 2/Dynastic Hero?  I'd just give it back to him.  He's obviously trying to rip you off.

That is the MidWestGamingClassic; an event that took place last month or so. Apparently he sold a bunch of games that you bought. You can read more about MGC here:http://lazerdorks.org/stunningarticles/mgc2008/index.html.

Strange coincidence. My haul was picked up from the Washington area, I believe. Around the Vancouver area, as I recall. I'll ask John.

....Another hig haul located in the Seattle vicinity....

Just reinforces my belief that Seattle is the Turbo mecca of the country.

Yeah, I've notcied that. There have been HUGE scores at two of the NWCGE shows. One guy had an even bigger set than I got. It was like a feeding frenzy.

According to my friend John, there's even a store in Seattle that sells PCE stuff. I want to check it out the next time I'm up that way.

Yeah they actively import PCE stuff all the time. I always walk out of there about $100 poorer. They have ~200 PCE games at any given moment.
