$23,880.17 works out at $3,980.03 for each of the six titles

If you are quick Thibaut has Vol 5 (Fushigi na Shima) up for grabs for a snip at 2000 Euro / $2,466.85 US

Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought that these expensive games function more as "conversation pieces" to encourage folks to go to the store (an attraction). In fact, it is more exciting to "overinflate" the price to make it more memorable. Now, I'm sure they'd sell Kid's Station if someone was crazy enough to pay full asking price, but selling the item is not its raison d'ĂȘtre, so to speak. Getting people in a store to buy the more "common" titles that are overflowing the shelves, though...

i just came back from japan and i can confirm this is the set that they had in Akiba. I asked them about it since i noticed it missing when i went there and they stated they moved it to the new store.

They also moved a lot of the super rare items too as it was almost depressing on how many of the museum pieces were gone. I had to ask them if they had money trouble and were forced to sell but they all got moved there.

You asked them if they had money trouble? LOL, you might want to study a little Japanese culture next time. :)

Anyway the move makes sense, Super Potato is Osaka native, and the new store is quite cool, it's probably the biggest store they have space wise, and some nice displays.  Thought the ugly-ass Treamcast kinda hurts it.
