Pretty sure you did all right! I paid $2650 for one in similar shape recently, and that seemed to be the cheapest one had gone around here in a year or two.

Eggbert52 is a well-known troll.

If a stock is selling at $50 a share and you feel it's worth $30 a share, that doesn't mean you can buy it for that.

I'd say a functional game for $2600 is a good deal when comparable examples have recently sold around $3000 is a good deal.

I know of Eggbert52 from my time on the Neo Geo forums.

He made a post asking what his worst thread was. That sounds an awful lot like a troll to me.

Eggbert52 - prove your point. Show documentation of several examples of this game selling in comparable condition under $2000.

What's the matter, Eggbert? You have to whine to me via PM because you can't back up what you're saying with facts?

Really, if you're finding them for $1800, I'd LOVE to know where this is. I'm apparently looking all the wrong places for my games.
