A handle controller and power strike II in the same week is a great score. Unlike some of the other expensive games Power Strike II is a good game to play.

This was an epic tv show. Was pretty much my only way of seeing games played before getting them. My favorite part was when the gamesmaster would give out tips and cheats.
To bad the master system wasn't featured to much as they focused mostly on megadrive and snes.
Looking back at some of the shows on youtube I'm surprised Dominik Diamond got away with some of stuff he would come out with, he was fond of the mildly sexual innuendos involving joysticks and some of the questions to female celebs where borderline for a show at 6pm. It was a different era I guess.
One of my saved searches on ebay is a gamesmaster golden joystick, never going to happen but one can always hope.

You went to the german market to get Masters of Combat? Thats like flying to Russia for buying tea. Nothing here is cheap anymore. Everyone thinks their Wimbledon is going to be the next Smurfs 2. Well I bought games from a few countries Germany , France, Italy and Czech Republic. My point about the Germans in particular wasn't about the prices rather their service provided, which is important when buying rare games. Unfortunately with some of those games pictured I feel the days of getting them cheap are over, regardless of the country

Here is what I picked up over the last month. Its been successful with a few quality titles making their way into my possession. I've had to expand my searches into the european market as some of the games don't pop up in the uk much. I was weary of buying games from aboard to begin with but have been impressed with the sellers and the prices. German sellers in particular always seen to dispatch items quickly with tracking uploaded and indestructible packaging

Nice pick up's, Daffy Duck rarely pops up especially complete, I think it may be a game to sore in value in future. I've seen a few good deals on ninja gaiden lately, seem's to have fallen back a little in price. Yeah championship hockey is like London buses.

It's a good price for an incomplete copy. Even if you decide to later buy a complete version you should easily be able to get your money back on this.

Winter Olympics extra booklet in various languages. Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego has an extra booklet. cheers rupert yeah I got the miracle warriors map and Ultima map , those 2 additional Ultima books are on my most wanted list, they are few and far between to say the least.

yeah don't remind me about that one, smurfs 2 is the only game I don't even have a manual for. Got a good copy from croatia but I will have to bit the bullet at some point and get one from Italy.

Hey my goal is to have all my games complete as they would have been when new, so I want all my games to have posters. Most have the general sega posters but I know a few have their own unique posters.
Their's the codemasters games, the Olympics games , world cup 94 and maybe did monaco gp have a poster.
Anyone know any others or is that it, ??

Sigh, I hope not. Having enough trouble getting people to actually pay without the ones that do sending their stuff back. I've had games returned in different cases that are cracked, with missing manuals and even one with no game! I not had anything like that happen me personally but its easy for someone to abuse the system for sure. I bet Ebay could do nothing to help you. You can't even leave negative feedback to warn others. All you can do is report them, block them and move on.

Yeah some people just love to be a pain. You will have no option but to accept the return, If they open a case ebay will side with them, just relist it and hope someone sane buys it
