    The only Darius game I have is Darius II. Both the PAL Saturn and Jap Megadrive versions.

    Been meaning to get Gaiden for ages now.

    Have a nice CD-R copy of G-Darius :D

    Parcel Motel is really reasonable. Only problem is they only have pick up lockers around Dublin atm

    Delivery thing with a UK address. You get it delivered to them and they leave it in a locker located around Dublin (mainly 24 hour petrol stations).
    €3.50 a delivery.

    That sounds more like the plot to a film than a delivery service :pac:

    Hmm, be fine unless customs mixed your case of darius posters, hentai figurines and famicom carts up with the package of opiates that some scumbag has had shipped in!

    anyone know what the score is with Parcel Motel & customs?
    do they just pay them on your behalf and bill you?

    It's just UK deliveries isnt it? So no customs.
    Or do they do outside the UK and Ireland?

    What happens if there is VAT and/or Duty due on my item?
    Please ensure that any charges payable are paid in advance of delivery. Parcel Motel will not accept responsibility for payment of any VAT or Duty charges due on items delivered. If the postal operator or courier asks for cash on delivery, your item will be refused by us.

    Got myself a commodore 128D for 40 euros, came with commodore printer and tape drive, Guy also threw in a commodore 1901 monitor ( that was not working), replaced the fuse and bingo one working monochrome commodore 1901 monitor. The on/off buttton is faulty but hey, got it nought.

    Also got a box of commodore 64 games, some lynx games and some wait for it CDi games. Got Burn cycle, must have a go.

    Will post pics later.....

    Two small pieces of GET! today. But nice pieces. :)

    Task Force Harrier [OST, CIB]
    Awesome soundtrack for a top game. This copy I picked up is brilliant as it has spine card and reg card OCD, a cool glossy sticker and the tracklisting is a foldout piece of sheet music so you can play along on the piano! Ridiculously mint condition too, no shelf wear on the casing either.

    The Legendary Axe [Game Guide]
    Top notch little guide book for a fun PC Engine game. A nice curio for the bookshelf.

    Picked up a US 3DS and Devil Survivor Overclocked last week, along with a few DS and PSP games - Chibi Robo, Etrian Odyssey 2, Gungnir, Growlanser, along with that samurai romancing game Retr0 was on about. Will be picking up a Japanese 3DS-LL next week hopefully, the white one looks great.

    Although I hate posting in this thread without pictures, thought I'd list some recent gets:

    A Gamecube lot with both Zelda games, Super Mario Sunshine, and some old sports games

    A Gamecube lot with Paper Mario, Super Mario Baseball (well chuffed as I'd never seen this in the wild in Ireland before), Sonic Adventure 2, Mario Party 4, Mario Kart DD and some old shovelware.

    And a bargain (misprice I reckon!) in the R.A.G.E... A complete version of Team Buddies for €7. Very happy with that actually as I only had a version without the manual, I love that game!

    bought a few Japanese Saturn games off Steve via ebay yesterday, and they're in ridiculously good condition.

    002-1.jpg?t=1345561326


    also got this one off adverts, probably not Kirby's greatest outing, but reviews seem okay, so worth a punt for a tenner.
