    Saw Genso Suikoden for the Sega Saturn for 2000yen (about a tenner). Decided that getting Dark Savior and Shining Wisdom for 200 yen each was a better idea. Along with X-Men vs Streetfight + 4mb ram cart for 1000yen

    Stupid fool! I've never even seen a copy of it before for the Saturn.

      Around 1997 or 98, i wondered into my local 'solid gold' second hand video game shop and they had a new copy of Panzer Dragoon Saga for ?15. and i didn't buy it as at the time i was a SUPER poor student and couldn't even afford that. That's the one that will haunt me.

      and also REZ for DC at ?10

      and MvsC2 for DC at ?10

      i bit dumb i think.

          Buying both Caught By The Fuzz and Mansize Rooster on Backbeat Records (limited runs of 250 each) by Supergrass.

          And then giving them to my brother.

          What, you want games stuff? Well, can I just save an awful lot of time by saying we didn't all buy Samba De Amigo when it was available?

                  The one that will haunt me is my friends AES being sold for ?65 with two games but at the time i was naive and poor

                              Mine has to be the ?20 Gamecubes at the outlet store of a certain chain of newsagents :\ They were taking phone orders throughout the day and when I finally got a credit card to use they were refusing to mail them, just reserve them for instore collection only.

                                and that was the worst bargain ever too. theres a lot to be said for not actually doing any work but sitting on the internet waiting to capitalise on pricing errors, stock blowouts, and generally being a capitalist ****. buying a million then selling them on. but i actually want a gameboy
