Loose Arcade Card PROs are selling for $40 - $50 on eBay and there is one available now with a BIN of $69.99. Loose DUO cards sell on eBay for $14 - $20.

If game-related prices are a concern, you should learn how to eBay's search features properly. Otherwise you're only creating higher prices.

The Duo systems and SCD format were the most popular for PCE, so the Duo card is much more common.


Yeah, I guess I must being looking wrong... care to share links?

Fatal Fury isn't the best excuse for an Arcade Card

I would be down to get a card for Sapphire  to see what the fuss is about, and to check out Strider to see what they did to get that game on the machine. I have passed on it because I didn't feel like the 35$ offers I've seen were too high to satiate a curiosity. The current perceived price makes me even more hesitant to check it out. Is sapphire the only worthwhile arcade card exclusive experience?
