Sealed in bag only I think he would have asked at least 50% more if the box was sealed too :wink:

Just won!

He's listed it a few times, and took me up on my best offer. Not bad consider it's only about $100 more US than what a regular unsigned one would go for.

Does anyone want to buy mine?

Well someone was gonna bite the bullet eventually! lol. Good man Violent, glad it went to someone on here!

Bay, I love your posters man, I have some of those in the mail. If you spot any more of the Eva, First Bite and Monkey posters let me know, I'd love to get those.

Yeah, I really wanted that item. I knew it wouldn't close at that price, so I just kept watching it get posted. It must've cost about $20 or so just to keep listing it.

I sent a best offer of close to half his asking price, but it had expired. He msg'd me right after with a link at 200gbp buy-it-now and I went for it.

He also has MG for famicon and MG for NES both signed, but honestly, I think 2 of the last 3 weekends I've spent over a grand online each time so I gotta put a stop to the spending. So, if anyone here wants one of those just find the auctions and send a lower offer. You never know.

I just won this... anyone know if this is legit or not?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... ht_528wt_0

I've looked at Mekomeko's site, and apparently this is the AMERICAN version... so hopefully american versions dont have bootlegs. Also, I've saw that the other one ran for quite a few $$$, so I was thinking its the same thing.

Thanks in advance.

Lol, I was gonna bid on that too! I'd really be in the bad books wouldn't I! :)

I don't know if it's legit mate but if it's anything like that 2nd URL, it certainly looks it, plus the legit one comes with a sticker so I'd say it's a safe bet that it's a legit copy. Congrats man, good price!

I didn't bid in the end cos he said U.S. and Canada Shipping ONLY! So no luck for me being based in the U.K.!!!

I can confirm it's legit. It's the north american release that includes that sticker.

That's a hot price man. $10!? You're lucky I didn't snipe ya :)

Hey, if you needed something that is Canada/US shipping only, let one of us here know, I'm pretty sure we will be willing to help you get it over there in the UK.

I'll be expecting the SAME thing from you =D ahahah.

Lol, it looks green in the picture but it's actually a cool silver memory card, it's the outer card holder that is actually dark and green. And yup, it's proper special! :)

Nothing special really. The original MGS through eBay. The one I have in my premium package is a little scratched on the 1st disk. I'll swap it with this one.

Yeah, I was bidding on that too. I was bidding on that Silver Snake figure also, but I wasn't home to see the auction off. Hope you enjoy them.

Man I'm not doing well with stepping on people toes lately am I! lol. Sorry man. In fairness you can't tell who's bidding on eBay which I think is a good thing. I'm very happy with my purchases but I don't like the possibility of me outbidding another Junker Member!

But also, at the sametime, we should all be free to bid what we want on these things so it's really for the best that we don't discuss what we're bidding on, on here before we win it. After we win however, is a different kettle of fish! Feel free to slate me or anyone else in the appropriate "I hate *** (insert name here)" thread! lol.

Anyway, apologies man, I'll keep my eyes peeled for more of the same for you and will be sure to PM you.
