Aaah! Selling Wander Wonder again! I can't believe it. I have been waiting for years for this to happen! Years! I need this game! I have the answer to the eternal question: what is the meaning of life? Wander Wonder! I have an infinite, genuine gold mine, and all of it is dedicated to Wander Wonder.

Then you and I shall be as enemies on the auction battlefield then Seldane. I look forward to it. : )

So sinister! I admit, though, I got my eyes on at least 4 of your games now. Saturday should come faster!

Prices will start at 1$ with no minimum. I wasn't supposed to sell my chinese games already, but I can take the cds with me (both FS1&2) Two questions : 1°) How much time do you want to bid ? I'll be close to my game boxes for two weeks. I won't be able to send items after the 24th (of April). I'll continue in July. 2°) Do you want a buy it now option ?
I'll have to check the shipping fees for people living outside of France. It could be quite expensive. (Don't be surprised to pay 20$ just for one game ! It'll depend on the weight of the package). You will pay all the shipping fees, and just the shipping fees. (I won't charge your for the gas I use with my car of course !)
I also have a few dozen audio cds from the (infamous) companies SM and Everanime. If you win an item and send me a message with your ALOY member name, I'll give you one cd of your choice for free as a bonus. (I have vgm, anime, etc...).
For those interested, I'll also sell a Creative Vision M 30GB mp3 player with a few accessories. Very nice, but I don't use it anymore.

Sounds cool to me, though I would suggest not doing a Buy it Now option at least for the games that you know may attract many bidders. I mean, I'm probably going to lose Wonder Wander to Seldane anyway, but it's the thrill of the fight that will make the winner of the auction truly victorious. If one of us were to just swoop in and buy it now, I just doesn't seem fair to the other people interested in the auction. It would be the same as negotiating a final sale through PM. : )
Also, Ebay charges extra if you use a Buy it Now option and they charge you extra if you exceed an auction length of 7 days. So if you keep it at 7 days, that should give everyone plenty of time without charging you extra. You could do 10 though if you definitely want to give everyone who might be interested plenty of time.
And the SM/Everanime thing sounds cool to me too. I've got plenty of those as well, but I just can't really sell them directly, it has to be given as a bonus to something else I am selling.

Ok ! That's exactly what I had in my mind at first : no buy it now option, 7 days auctions.
EDIT: I also take my Magna Carta CDs (4 cds) and the War of Genesis III part1+2 cds (8 cds !). Warning : Heavy boxes !!!
EDIT2: I've just checked the shipping fees : It looks like you'll be able to order game (or games) in small packages with a weight <1kg for 18$ (Priority mail). I've just started my first auction, but it's not yet available (It's Wander Wonder). I'll work on the auctions tomorrow.

"7 days auctions"? So I'll have to keep biding on the final 6th and 7th days then, I suppose.
I'm afraid I'll end up biding something crazy, but even more afraid of losing the bid because someone bidded later a second before the auction ends. >____>

Question : It's been a long time since I sold something on ebay. I see now that I have to give imperatively the shipping fees if I chose to sell my items outside of France. There are so many options possible (slow, letter, box, different countries), and it's almost impossible to tell the exact price or give all the options that I chose a fair price (I think), but that's only for a fast shipping service with tracking. Will I be able to change my mind when the auction will end ? I mean, if the winner wants something cheaper (slower) or more expensive (faster), can I give this option when I'll ask for the payment ? Can I sell in the entire world even if I choose not to do so ? (and then I can choose the exact shipping price after going to the post office). Thanks for your answers.

Indeed. A payment is processed through PayPal, I don't doubt that one can make a payment and then either party can click somewhere on eBay that "the item has been paid for" -- I think for buyers, that will be under their account, buying.
// Edit-out: I asked the initial question *after* receiving the answer.
// Also: Doesn't France have a website like the US has USPS? I don't know if your country can calculate shipping online, but mine does -- as long as you know how much a package weighs, you can get a price. (or an estimate, at least) DVDs and PS2/360/Wii games are generally around 6 ounces. I imagine all three of those Melty Blood CDs are less than a pound together.

Zeomare, I've modified the auction a bit : take a look at the photo. I've added "Other shipping options available. Please contact me if needed." If you win, we'll see what's the best option for you.

But there are many different prices for different countries, and many shipping options available (letter, box, slow, fast, insured) and I can only estimate the weight. Someone told me it's possible to make another choice than the only choice I gave before the payment, so I'll add a line to all my other auctions about this. The shipping fees I gave so far are for a "Collissimo International". Fast, secured shipping fees with the item(s) sent in a box.

Guu~~~
You don't have to part with your Chinese games if you don't want to. YesAsia actually has FS1 for $19.99 US right now but I noticed that the one you had had more stuff! *_*
Actually, the one on the YA site lists it as people the Special Edition? I have no idea what's so special about it cuz IIRC, the description just says it comes on 4 CDs(?) and has a beautiful manual. 9__9

The bonus are a poster, a small dvd wallet (or binder ?) to put your cds in, a beautiful color manual. I'll also sell the expansion disc (you follow the story of the girl :o) and the AWESOME game guide.

Alright, well let's see... from France to North America...
The price for Collissimo International sounds alot like the cost of Priority Mail, so I'm willing to bet that say... Lunar for example should be roughly 8 ounces (give or take), that'd be about $6.65 (which is about 5.04 EUR). That's all under the presumption that exporting costs are anything close to the importing costs.
Let me know how close I am -- I'm uncomfortably low on funds and want to be sure that I can afford the S+H + Item before bidding. I'll definately be keeping a sharp eye on these auctions.
(Don't worry zeomare. As tempting as Lunar is, with its beautifully higher resolution graphics and movies from the PSX version, I wouldn't swipe it out from under you.)
// I forgot to change my estimates. *fixed!*

I should be saving money considering I'm going to the US for a few days via plane from Toronto but ... I'm a total spender. >_>
I'll probably ask for some method of tracking and the option for signature required for delivery to reduce the chances of it ending up in the black hole next door. >:E So even if it's gonna cost $30 Canadian to ship, I'd still do it. ^^

The cheapest price for a packet is almost 17€ (delivery time : 3-4 weeks) and 22€ for a delivery time of 5-10 days. Yes, it's very expensive.
