Quick checks - I can only pay via Paypal. Unless stated, I don't mind what edition of the game it is. Standard/limited/Vista is all good (LE's preferred)! Condition - It doesn't need to look like you just unwrapped it, but at the same time nothing that you had to fight your dog for either I'm fine with light scratches/corner smooshes and so on. ------- Games listEiyuu Densetsu 3 Gurumin Moonlight Destiny Ys 1&2 Complete Ys 6 Zwei ...and on the offchance somebody has finished it and doesn't want it any more - Zwei 2! Would also like but probably can't afford - guidebooks/data books/that Gargharvtrilogy fan book. ------- I should say that I can't afford everything here all at once, so items will be bought based on whoever gets to me first

Um ... you know, I never did sell my Ys Eternal (regular edition). Would you like that~? It's not "optimized" for WinXP though but it works on that system~
Gotta warn you though -- shipping to the UK might be a bit frightening especially if you want tracking on it.
I got folks here that can vouch for the zany prices of Canada Post and Purolator. :/
(Yeah, it might seem like I don't want to sell stuff but it's the opposite! It's just that I feel like I must make potential buyers aware of the evilness of our postal costs.)

Isn't Ys Eternal different to the Complete set? I was under the impression that Complete had some graphical touch-ups and tweaks that made it better. I'm more than a litle fuzzy on this though :S

But underneath it all, it's the same game. >:3 'Course, if you're aiming for Ys I.II Complete, you'll be getting two games in one!

I just ordered the current Xanadu Next + Zwei special, but I was iffy on picking up the PC version of Zwei in light of the fact that there's a chance we could get an English release of the PSP version... so if I hear definite confirmation on that, I'd probably be willing to sell my PC version of Zwei. Unless of course you're waiting to hear the same information about a PSP version.

Haha, no, that's alright, I suspect I'll keep seeing the game on my shelf and won't be able to resist the urge to play it, even if a US PSP version is coming. Although I do think it's kind of funny that there's now three people (including myself) who I've seen make posts about ordering the current special and then shuffling around games between each other.

You know... I was thinking about pre-ordering Zwei!! PSP, and throwing in the special of the week for Zwei!! and Xanadu Next, then selling Xanadu Next to justinzero for cheap since I already own it... maybe I could do the same with Zwei!! PC, since I already own that as well. You'd have to wait until December, though, and I'd be screwing over macroidtoe from selling HIS copy of the game to you... but if you'd be willing to do this, and justinzero would be willing to pay bottom dollar for a copy of Xanadu Next, this might just be what the doctor ordered. -Tom I am more ready and willing than a young bride on her wedding night!! Send the green light and Ill send the paypal cash *** Maybe we can see about buying that Riviera and Falcom Cd from you too I am pretty sure you forgot.

Wyrdwad - that would have been perfect, apart from the December bit (I'm an impatient soul when it comes to these things)! Macroidtoe - I would be interested in talking a price with you, but I understand the wait for a US Zwei might be a while so it's up to you what you do. I am more ready and willing than a young bride on her wedding night!! From experience, the only thing this (not so) young (now) bride wanted to do on her wedding night was sleep. Honestly, we were knackered!

Ill take that Zwei off your hands too if she doesn't, and if I don't like it Ill probably send it to her anyways.
My wedding is going to be a real haze by the time I am done!!

Just make sure to let me know how much cashola you want like a week in advance, so I can clear it with my better half. I am terrible with money, so I tell her when I do paypal transfers.

I won't ask for much, don't worry. I just like to throw in as much as possible when I order from Falcom, to justify the shipping costs. (: -Tom I do that with Amazon Japan purchases but that 4700 yen for Xanadu Next and Zwei!! probably already exceed the shipping cost so I think just ordering those was okei! I wish the Zwei II guidebook was out already though~! Not that I need it but ... I dunno. I sort of want it for some reason. XD Sigh. I wonder how long it'll be until Falcom replies. :/

Macroidtoe - I would be interested in talking a price with you, but I understand the wait for a US Zwei might be a while so it's up to you what you do. I just got my confirmation on my order, so I'll try to make up my mind for sure as soon as it arrives since it sounds like wyrdwad and Justin have worked out a deal. I probably have enough games to play for the time being that I could part with it: after all, if a US PSP release never materializes, I'm sure the Japanese version will show up again in one of their specials paired up with something else I want to order. I can calculate a price now, though -- I'm just looking to recoup my costs, not make a profit: Original price of items before discount = 12880 yen Original price of Zwei = 3960 yen 3960/12880 = .31 (percentage of the special which Zwei represents) Total cost of special with shipping = 7900 yen 7900 * .31 = 2449 yen 2449 yen = $25.88 (currently) So $25.88 + whatever it costs to ship to you. Quite simple, really. EDIT: Oh, if you also want the Zwei soundtrack, that bumps the percentage up to .54 (the Zwei soundtrack is 1000 yen more expensive than the Xanadu Next soundtrack for some reason -- 2 discs, probably), so the total for both would be $42.66 + shipping.

Ooh that's great! Let me know when it's arrived if you want to keep it or not and we'll go from there

Oh, I missed the part where Justin said if he doesn't like Zwei, he'll send it to kimimi... so okay, here's the deal:
1) wyrdwad sells his Zwei to Justin 2) I sell mine to kimimi 3) if Justin doesn't like Zwei, he sells wyrdwad's former copy to me
We will single-handedly keep the postal service in business.

Sounds good to me, as long as everyone is happy than there shouldn't be anything to worry about. My biggest thing is being able to play the game, and I hear there are ok FAQs for Zwei, and Xanadu Next is easy enough without one.

Well that works even better. Besides, my "Zwei Shuffle" plan really stemmed from a sinister conflict of interest, since I just started a job with the postal service. More seriously, I wonder if that means I get some kind of employee discount on postage/shipping...? Probably not, this is the federal government we're talking about, after all. Employee discounts are inefficient! Return to your duties of wrapping things in red tape!

If the game is as good as everyone says it is I probably won't let it go to easy ha ha. I don't have a problem lending it out though.
I am starting to get excited for these 2 purchases, hey Wyrd, when did you say you were ordering those??
