That all looks like fair pricing to me.  The PC-FX isn't particularly cheap, but it's pretty decent when you factor in not having to pay shipping.

CPTRAVE that is a very good price.  I've been trying to snag a PC-FX for $150 off eBay (my only option) and it's impossible once you add on the SAL/EMS shipping costs.  They typically sell for $150 on eBay, so if you can pay $150, walk away with it and put it in your car you are doing very well.

Hell, if you decide to not buy it for $150 let me know.  I'll send you the money and an additional $50 to ship it to me.  As long as it isn't yellowed.  I hate that.

I'll take the street fighter ;)

On the PCFX - agreed, doesn't seem like a bad price. What's the condition of the unit?

I think that's a decent price. I got mine a few years back for $100, boxed, but it didn't include any games or an extra controller.
