Hey all, so I picked up games from this site for $50 shipped. 

Now I paid with paypal and confirmed that the owner is verified, but since I have never heard of this site I am skeptical on whether they will deliver.  Because I paid with paypal I know Im protected, so I will follow up when/if I get my games.

Just spoke to some guys on shout and I figure I'd make a thread and keep you guys posted.

Some crazy prices...

Yeah some of the prices are outrageous (Castlevania III $60.00, and all of their dreamcast games  :shock:) and others are a downright steal (lunar silver start story for sega cd $10, some of the turbo grafx titles,  :shock: :shock:). Seems like a mom and pop store that has no clue on the values of most games.

In either case I made an order with them, if they screw up I can just complain to paypal. I will keep you all posted as well.

Wow...$100 for Panzer Dragoon?  Not Zwei! or Saga?  Crazy!  Someone should hop on those Shockman and Hero Tonma games.

Dam and me with my paypal wallet full of butterflies. Luckily, I had enough to buy one item yet strangely it wasn't removed from the listingafter my purchase. Does that mean they have more than one?

No clue, but I did call and it was an answering machine that doesnt even ID itself as gameonman.com.

So if I dont get a reply to my emails today or tomrrow I am gonna start thinking twice...

I think it is an old site that was never updated. Check the details of your Paypal transaction and if they still haven't claimed your money, you can withdraw it as if it never happened.

It shows as "completed" so they did accept it.

So the site says Idaho (208 area code), but when I do a phone search it comes up with Seattle.  I called 208-339-4869 hoping it was a typo and its an automotive garage.   This is getting fishier by the minute.

I called 206-339-4869 and got a generic voice recording from what sounds like an answering machine/fax combo (I guess).

When I ordered, I got an 'AgoraCart Shopping Receipt' email from sales@gameonman.com. Also got the PayPal receipt.

So yeah, whoever gets their stuff please post here!
