Title: Special Version Hucards - I can buy 'em for you.
Post by: SamIAm on October 20, 2014, 07:55:12 PM
Howdy guys.

There's a game store near where I live in Japan that has lots of special version Hucards for sale. Since they're so rare, I thought I would post here and see if anyone is interested.

Soldier Blade - ¥15,000
Gunhed - ¥15,000
faded label Soldier Blade - ¥12,000
Final Soldier - ¥18,000
Bonk 3 ¥20,000
Bomberman 93 - ¥16,000

These all come in a case, although there is no manual.

In addition, there is a manual-less Coryoon for ¥12,000.

Let me know if you want one of these! We can work out some kind of deal. I'm not looking to profit from this. I either want to trade, or get some paypal cash together so I can get some things off ebay.

Thanks!

Those are actually pretty reasonable prices for the special cards.

Anything special about these cards outside of the fact that they are expensive for rarities sake?

I just want to reiterate that those numbers are literally what's on the price tags. I have added nothing to them. I just want some cash in my paypal account because I don't have a credit card here in Japan.

I'm not in the market for any of these special releases, but if this shop has any harder to find (or just pricier) regular releases for decent prices (compared to eBay, etc.), I'd be more than willing to fill your Paypal account.

Here's a couple that are on my "fire" list, so to speak.

Cotton
Dracula X
Dragon Knight + Graffiti
Fausseté Amour
Hi-Leg Fantasy
Kaze Kiri
Madou Monogatari
Spriggan
Sylphia
Tatsujin

I did a bit of checking for Pixeljunky. In addition to what he requested, there's a fair amount more.

Dracula X ¥12,000 (complete and mint)
Dragon Knight and Graffiti ¥5700 (one in good condition, one slightly less so but including postcard.)
Hi Leg Fantasy ¥8400 (includes GE card)

(Pixeljunky has first dibs on these)

Also:
Popful Mail ¥5000
Bazaru Degozaru ¥12,000
Downtown Nekketsu Monogatari 13,000

Also, they had a front loading Neo Geo CD boxed for 18,000. Those are rare, IIRC.

Oh, and Darius Alpha for 84,000, but I don't think I want to trade for that much. ;)

Which is not the special version that SamIAm is talking about, so you have no point.

I bought these from an online Japanese store two months ago:

Popful Mail ¥4,190
Downtown Nekketsu Monogatari ¥5,590




I got Bonk 3, Japanese Version, for like $38USD.

How is that possible? Bonk 3 sells for no less than $300 on ebay!

I thought that was a little funny, so I went back and double checked. The Downtown Nekketsu Monogatari was sealed. The Popful Mail is complete and in very good condition.

Are you in Tokyo ? I'd like to get PC Genjin 3 Special and if you can get it this week-end, I can give you an address in Japan where you can ship it.

Sadly, there are already two other people who are interested in getting the Bonk 3 taikenban. If they both drop out, I'll let you know.

would you ship to new zealand at all? and do you think the store would shift on any prices at all?  :)

I suppose I could do that. What are you interested in?

The prices won't shift. Those special versions have been sitting there for a couple of years with no changes.

Because I don't know what Bonk 3 taikenban is nor heard of it until this thread?  Are you that desperate to take a swipe at someone because they don't go home and masturbate to their Turbo Collection every day while reciting the names of all their games in alphabetical order?  Check your privilege son.

Pull your head out of your ass and figure out what the word "taikenban" means.  Try google.

Fair enough...

English Reference for taikenban (たいけんばん)

Definitions
noun: overpriced version (extremely), this version that gets nerd collectors uppity and extremely volatile against anyone in their vicinity and gives those who posses it an extreme case of over compensation and verbal flatulence.




Damn, no wonder you snapped at me.  Next time I'll be more careful.  Walked right into that one didn't I?

Obviously I have spoken and thanked Sam personally for this but I thought it about time that I post up what he managed to sort out for me. Sam has been an amazing guy throughout this transaction and I cannot recommend dealing with him enough... thanks again mate. :)

So after many trips to the shop for me and a handful of crafty pics, I ended up purchasing all the Special HuCards (and a cheeky copy of Magical Chase) enabling Sam to buy himself a nice new toy. Between us we had some great help from Opethian as an intermediary and my best friend in Tokyo as an address to post to, so thanks to them too.

Then a few weeks back when my mate returned home for some family issues, he brought back with him all of the Engine goodness he has been looking after for me for a month or so...

Thanks again Sam.  :D
