Title: Found a somewhat good deal for Dracula X
Post by: Mathius on July 23, 2009, 05:28:26 PM: ChasetheChuchWagon.com had this site linked so I thought I'd take a look. There on the main page I spotted this copy of DX for $98 free shipping(air mail, not EMS), which is $10 less than I paid 2 weeks ago for my copy. ](*,) Oh well, I thought I'd give any of you "Rondo virgins" a shout. It's listed as "good condition," the disk has some "light marks," and no spine card.

Here's the link:

That's the best deal I have come across lately.

I tried to find that one on eBay but didn't see it. Got a link? :)

Looks like somebody snatched that up pretty quickly. If it wasn't Mathius, I will say that Retro Game City is an awesome person and I would buy it from him.

EDIT: Ooops, just realized you already had a copy.

Apparently it has been sold. It did show up in search results at both of my break times at work the other day.

With a price of $88 I am not surprised that it didn't last.
