This "Nintendo Game & Watch ZELDA MIB Perfect Mint Beautiful!" that theretrodogg won is quite cheap at $67.10 USD: cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=2541&item=5931782046as I've seen many without as much paperwork/plastic bag in worse condition going for around 50.00GBP! I was gonna bid on it but had internet problem at the last minute arrr... Kevin |

Oh WOW...I didn't see that MCF TT CGL as I'm not looking for one...the condition of the box/game seem SO NICE and I would have expected the price to be around $150/+ USD!  So it looks like Paul lost a little $ after ebay/paypal? fees, adding the certificate and yellow sheet from the auction he won before from Chizuru: cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=2541&item=5924651477Maybe Lianas66's collecting these like I'm on MTJ? I've won 2 recently so my total is up to 7 now! Anyone noticing that certain Japanese sellers like Chizuru/akajiyajp2004 and Yakichijapan bidding/winning a lot of G&W lately? I wonder if they're reselling these in Japan or actually COLLECTING them?! Kevin |

That's a bummer! A small point, but maybe it's because the title only says YM901 and not YM-901 or YM-901S or even YM-901-S. I know the last couple of months when I was looking for one I just searched for YM-901 because I'm lazy and couln'd be bothered to look through all the auctions. Andy. |

Andy - always add a " * " to a search string and it will bring up many more returns. For example " nin* " is a better way to search for nintendo because so many people spell it wrong! Perhaps you knew this anyway?  There's a lovely boxed YM901s going at the moment, I gather....  @paul - what a bummer for you, man. I applaud your bravery for selling rare items with no reserve, but it can backfire. Hope you're not too upset |

I think he's trying to monopolize the ym901s market. Regarding, the aforementioned sellers, the answer is yes, I've seen them selling the items they buy in Ebay, in yahoo japan. Michael |

Hey Michael, I see-then his "investment" in monopolizing YM-901S is quite expensive! I don't really browse around Yahoo Japan as EBAY/other websites and work takes up quite a lot of my time already! Here's a MCF WS Boxed that ended for VERY CHEAP @ $25.00 USD (Low reserve ): cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=8131616705Kevin |

Hello people. I was surprised at that one really, strange, but hey, got to move on and groove on. Jon - It's taken me 9 months to list all these games, so I don't have time to mess about re-listing em - still got another 45 ones to go!!!! It's crazy, I sold the dk1 for £157 yet no one bids at the last minute on the YM? Andy - good point, but I had about 40 people watching it, so i don't think it was hard to find it. I think sometimes people see a price and think well someone is going to bid a lot more than that so I won't bother, then no one bids!!! Silly really as it's a bit like the lottery, you gotta be in it to win it, so if you don't bid you won't win!!! ;D I've not put a reserve on any of my games and I think overall I've done really well. It's funny, I've only ever had two bad auctions and they have both been YM901's - bloody things, common as muck!!! ;D I think next time I'll give 2 weeks away in a time share with one!! L8RZ as my niece always says!! Paul p.s. I have spoken to Danny (Lianas66) prior to the auction and he seems like a normal decent bloke. He loves the games as far as I know, he also has all the other g&w except the crystals. I've had over 10 YM901 go through my hands, so is it that weird? If he likes em, he like's em. I will have 4 white box's soon? p.p.s Still got 3 to sell, so as I'm getting crap price's on the bay, pm me your best offers ;D |

Andy - always add a " * " to a search string and it will bring up many more returns. Yes, of course, but my point was it said YM901 and not YM-901 so unless someone looking for that specific game searched for YM901 or YM* they wouldn't find it. And I'm talking about someone who didn't want to look through all 'game watch' before someone asks.... Andy. |

I know, but then everyone probably thinks either I'm mad or I'm going to re-sell.
It's just you all know me, so you know I'm mad!!!!
But even if he does plan to re-sell them in the future? I don't have an issue with it.

The game itself however is in superb condition (not even a scratch). If it is the game you need, I have it right here.
