Toshi is really increaing his prices! I'm interested in the DM2 package, but it's incredibly expensive.... including postage, that'll cost me around £95 (136 Euro) -- way too much even for an avid DM collector like me.

Still, if I was earning the money I used to a couple of years ago, I'd probably buy it! ^_^

in the other way, the two games are rare, and i'm sure that they are in good condition, as Toshi always sent me games in VERY good condition.

Rarity should not automatically dictate an over-inflated price. Objects only have value to people who are prepared to pay for them -- this is why auctions for so called 'rare' items are better because the buyers dictate the value of the item, not the seller.

In my opinion, the price listed here is over-inflated and I wouldn't be prepared to pay that. And I'm a serious DM fan! I can't imagine even the most hard-core FM-Towns gamer would be prepared to pay that.

Gambit, I understand your opinion.

As you know, i'm looking (with your help, thanks

) on Yahoo Japan for DM related stuff.
On the last year, i think i have saw on Yahoo Japan about 5 or 6 DM for FM Towns, and no more than 2 or 3 DM II for FM Towns. None on eBay !

So, I don't think, for these items on eBay, that the prices are over-inflated.

Because of the rarity and the good condition of the items, and also because of the initial release price (9800 yen, about $100).

Btw, my only goal was to inform the DM community, and i claim everyone has the choice to buy or not these items

For those who can't or want to pay that amount, I recall that I sent to ChristopheF the images of CSB and DM II for FM Towns :
