ah, I figured it'd be some of the good ones :P time stalker is spoken for, and 2012 is staying with me - I used to have a copy, then sold it, then regretted it, now reabsorbed it into my collection!! sorry about that!

Time stalker never heard of. But the cover art looked interesting. I assume an Roy?

2012 same here. I had a copy. However mine was stolen.

Time Stalkers is from Climax, and is kind of sort of part of the "stalker" series in general - landstalker, lady stalker, Dark Savior, etc. it's called climax landers in japan, and it's a roguelike, basically.

Damn what a good score...
I wish I had cash so that I could buy all of the Yuna stuff off of you (if you're even selling that), but unfortunately that's not the case...

I am planning to keep what I didn't already have, but I do have extras of Yuna 3, one of the PCE ones, and one Laserdisc...

Holy SHIT. I though the LD deal was amazing, this is perhaps even more of a find.

more immediately relevant to me, as well. speaking of relevance, when I said you and I met on a neo geo pocket forum, he said he had one of those to sell, and that's how we got talking about games. I reckon he sold that one on ebay or something though, because it wasn't in my lot!

Oh I thought maybe you were near Zeta LOL. That would have been too convenient, since I could have had a family member pick them up and hold them for me.

Anyway, virtually every time I've bought a LD online, it's been sent media mail, and I've not received extra charges upon delivery. So that could be an option. Really it depends what is available.

Gypsy: yeah, I've never lived anywhere but california! and I'll get back to you with some of the LDs I'm ready to send off later - would have to figure out the best way to package them though!

Sounds good man. I'm particularly interested in anime but I did just get Last Action Hero off eBay so I'm willing to take a look at the full list of what would be available.

Yeah, I've sent a number of LDs through the mail as well and Media Mail is the best route unless a high dollar LD.  I have some LP boxes but a lot of times I'll just stick them in something larger and then cut the box to fit and load it with packing.  Media comes out to about $1 a pound or so, and you can ship a single LD in the $3-4 range if I remember right.

xelement5x - yeah, even at that rate it seems pretty tough to justify! Like say Gypsy wanted all my Saber Marionette stuff (please!), that's 22 discs, which would be at least $70 to ship at that rate. That's rough! Not much room to charge for the discs themselves when you're paying $70 for shipping, I reckon.
