    Least expensive IMPORT games you have bought

    These threads are pretty fun IMO.

    What import bargains have you picked up over the years?

    Amongst others I got 2 sealed copies of Radiant Silvergun for ?35, and a sealed Viewtiful Joe for DS for ?3.70 shipped.

    Picked up a few crafty bargains in my time possible the best was the series of Japanese MD stuff I bought last year but had to sell for my Japan trip

    Ikaruga sealed - £11 (When CEX got rid of all their import gear)
    Splatter House 2 jp MD - £5
    Bare Knuckle 3 jp MD - £8
    Bare Knuckle 2 jp MD - £5
    Super Shinobi II jp MD - £4
    Vampire Killer jp MD - £30
    Gley Lancer jp MD - £20
    Metal Slug RAM pack jp Saturn (Ebay!) - £8
    Macross SFC (the expensive one!) - £6 in Japan, although this is cheap even for Japan the till lads messed up the price and put it through as 1,300 yen.
    There's also a bunch of stuff I picked up in Japan on the cheap but didn't include that as that's really to be expected

      My best bargain was probably a mint copy of Bakuretsumuteki Bangaioh (N64) for $15

          Unless you live out side of the UK those games are not imports and thus have no relevence to the thread. Buying imports is considered a costly practice so this is what this thread is about. They've got loads of copies of <insert PAL game here> in my local indie for &#163;99p. If you made a "Least expensive games you have bought" thread which covered domestic releases you could start, and I could post about the bargainous Panzer Saga I got.

                Well i wouldn't say they were bargains as they aren't worth anything but i picked up a sealed Japanese PS2 MGS2 and Winning Eleven (can't remember which one) for 99p each. They are still sealed and sat on my shelf, i might play them one day.

                      Your AES Metal Slug has got to be the biggest bargain, Joe!

                      I haven't managed to bag any bargains really, but some lucky f*ckers did get some bargains on my eBay clearances. Among those, a mint Popful Mail (PCE CD) for around &#163;15, a sealed Strider (PCE CD) and a mint Rainbow Islands for around &#163;20 a piece. Oh, and F-Zero GX (Jap GC) for 32p. Yes, I truly suck at this eBay thing...

                          Lol, I totally forgot about that one N. I recently bought back SF Collection too. Seems terrible nowadays, the load times are attrocious.

                            Whoops, I kinda posted that without thinking. As far cheap import games go, I got a Metal Slug 1 conversion off eBay for ?35.

                              I got a bargain ages ago when I first started collecting, I put a wanted ad in the Local Trade-it for a PC Engine Turbo-Duo and I got a reply for one in Swindon for ?60 with 'some games'

                              When I turned up to collect it was mint in box with over 50 games HuCard and CD including Dracula X, Gunhed, Cotton, Hellfire, Multitap and 3 extra controllers.. and a bunch of other cool stuff.. then looking in the back of his garage I saw a boxed CoreGrafx 2 which he let me have for ?30.. even chucked in a buch of old CVG and Mean Machines mags

                              So I got a nice collection for ?90 quid.. but try getting anything other than pirate ps1 games in trade-it now..
