What's hot, what's not - October 08

*HOT*

Collectors selling off their entire collections - you think mattbellamy has been selling some deadly items? shin092922 off yahoo japan is selling his due to an upcoming wedding, and he's had tons of items I've never even knew existed. When the dust settles he'll probably have a good chunk of change to play with. I've noticed a couple sellers on ebay listing many MG items as they're selling their collection.

Ultimate Sorters - 76,000Y for a black sorter? The new white sorter package on YJP? No matter what they come with these are a scalding hot item.

MGS2 - Again, still red hot. Wether it's a ration tin, a poster, a sealed game, a t-shirt, anything MGS2 is red hot.

*NOT*

Twin Snakes - The foxhound gamecube can barely fetch $200 these days, and Twin Snakes in general seems pretty stale for collectors. Even Twin Snakes posters tend to fetch quite a bit less than other games.

Medicom RAH Raiden - Most everyone has it now, so the days of it closing at $200 are long gone (for now)

Signed MG items - Definately the craze has died down, and they are closing to maybe 50%-75% what they did a couple months ago. Even the MGS4 theater style poster signed goes under $500 when it used to fetch almost a grand (and even over a grand!)

Ooops, forgot to add one to the *NOT* list.

ebay - seriously, compared to Yahoo Japan ebay has been quite stale lately for quality Metal Gear items. My ebay watch list doesn't have a single Metal Gear item in it and it's been quite empty for a while now.

As you have said Twin Snakes (NTSC) version is really cheap but PAL version is still very expensive.

LOL I could see how people might misunderstand what you're saying as "ya" might be confused for "you".
