I'm so excited...



Things like this rarely happen to me. Normally eBay hates me. I'll be outbid on an item at the last minute, end up spending far more than I intended to, or at worst get totally ripped off by the seller.

Fingers crossed this one will work out for the best! After being alerted to the Saturn sequel on the Xbox by the dilligent team here on the 'Yard, I managed to score Panzer Dragoon Orta for less than £5, including postage and packing!

Happy days! I've also got two VF5 online opponents lined up in the guise of our very own Nebachadnezzar and new commentor, cynicalmatt! it looks like being a very good weekend indeed!

Haha nice one! I just recently managed to snipe a bargain on ebay too. I bought a Sega Saturn pin for 1 EUR. The weird thing is, that I bought the same pin twice already, and everytime it went up to 10 EUR.

Anyways. Post your impressions of Panzer Dragoon then. I am looking forward to hear, what a Saturn gamer has to say about it.

What a deal, Father!

For me PD will have to wait, because right now I'm having a blast with Jet Set Radiooooo Future!

AND JUST TODAY I FUCKING FORGOT AN AUCTION BECAUSE I WAS NOT AT HOME AND SOMEHOW THOUGHT IT'LL END TOMORROW!!!

I really, really hate myself. It was a Model 2 PAL Saturn with some sort of Cardboardjacket /-wrapper with Command & Conquer Artwork on it. Which I never saw before and I really wanted it. Yet I just forgot to bid on it. I hate, hate, hate, hate that! Damn. I am so angry right now.

Probably the best bundle I ever got... which I haven't got that many, but still..
