Right. So instead of creating a new topic every time something moderately interesting pops up I thought I'd post it here instead of creating to forum sprawl. Unless the item happens to be particularly rare or exotic, I think we should just post them in here. This is a rough format but we can change it or just tank the thread if it doesn't work. Let's get things started:

Yahoo Auctions Japan

Mother 1+2 Artbook and Mr.Saturn Plush

It looks like the Mr.Saturn is still vacuum packed. There is some wear around the top of the box. Bidding started at 4800 yen which is where the auction is at as I post this. Not a terrible price although you do see better from time to time on eBay.

Actually, if that thing doesn't go for too much higher, it'll be the best price you'll find for an unopened one from now on unless you get really lucky. The ones that go cheaper on ebay are opened. Which if you don't care about that, then you're solid. I still want an extra artbook plush so I can have one to enjoy. It hurts me to leave the one I have all smushed in that vacuum-sealed bag.

A couple of YAJ quick bumps

Another Mother 1+2 Artbook with a sealed Saturn
A Mother 2 Player's Guide that I've never seen before...or is this just the official guide without the jacket?
Mother 3 Poster (I do now know the size) already sold but it's the first time I've seen one of these listed in a long time

It looks like M3 Deluxe boxes are still hovering around $300 and the stickers from the recent event have all but dried up. I'll keep my eyes peeled for more good stuff...

Looks like that MOTHER 2 guide is just a horribly faded version of the MOTHER 2 Official Guide Book.

I kind of realized that halfway through posting. The guides are not my specialty so I figured I'd add in that little disclaimer. Also where have you been lately, Lucas? You posted like crazy when the board started and then fell off the face of the earth I want to see photos of your latest haul

Anyways some bumps:

Mini Dosei-San with the gift box.
Lot of Mother 1+2 and Mother 3 in excellent condition. I have a feeling this one is going to get pricey.
Mother 2 Handbill. These are becoming, surprisingly, rather common. I see one every few months or so whereas I see the flyers from the other titles once a year at most. I have no idea why this is.

Sorry. Real life's kept me busy. If you hear of a company and/or iPhone app called SCVNGR, think of me.

When things slow down, I'll jump back on here. Plus my website's making some progress.

What in the world is happening lately???

It's just a sign we're coming out of the recession

Meanwhile, on the other side of the pond:
Mother 3 Deluxe Set with budget M1+2 and guide. Probably the cheapest I've seen in a while with a BIN of 15000 Yen.

CRAP! How did I miss this!? Likely someone here won it. If you read this and want to make quick profit (and make me really happy ), I'll pay $60 for it + shipping.
