PS collectibles in online auctions.

I want the 3 CYOA book they made for the first 3 Phantasy Star, if only for the original artwork inside (even though I would wish to read them, but don't know a thing about Japanese )

Edit: The transaction with my Japanese contact is done, here's what I will get (just need to wait for them, the pictures are actually what he sent me).


(he sent me pictures of the CD too, everything is in perfect order.






Total for all 3 items, 240$ shipping included (since he took a little profit for himself for having bid for me on Yahoo Auction). If those items would have apppear one eBay, I would have paid surely A LOT MORE. I'm so happy

Heeheeheee! <drools>. See what I'm talking about xellos? YJPA may be complicated, but it saves you some serious money if your willing to tough it out. Oh, and The first of my PSO related winnings from YJPA arrived in the mail today. ^_^

Check this out. Someone is selling the complete set of all seven PSP2 pre-order promo cash cards!:

Oh, and this has got to be at least eleven star rarity! Phantasy Star Memorial CD-ROM/Book 2:

Can't say that I've ever seen that before.

I love the PS:P2 cards, great arts. You could get those in Japanese Pre-order? I'm sure Sega of America won't be as nice with us. Like the first PS:P, we won't get anything from pre-order

What was your PSO related purchase by the way?

There was more than one pre-order item in Japan for PSP2. People who pre-ordered through Amazon received an exclusive single disc version game soundtrack. SoA Has really been stingy with its marketting here. Only been two modern (post 2000) Phantasy Star games that they've offered pre-order bonuses with. PSO Episode 3, if pre-ordered at EB or GameStop included a mini-preview version of the Prima strategy guide. And PSU pre-orders included the one disc version soundtrack CD, which is the only Phantasy Star soundtrack that has been officially released here in the U.S.A..

my new way of working with yahoo auction japan. First I use this link which type Phantasy Star in Japanese

http://search.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/s ... 0jp&acc=jp

next, I browse all the pages for the items I want, and then I contact the guy I'm doing business with in Japan, and he bid for me. The last two auction I won because of him

Phantasy Star Compendium at 3800 Yen
Sega Gals Set #1 at 1200 Yen

this is dirt cheap...of course, I'll pay a little extra for using a third party in the transaction but still far less than on ebay.

My contact in Japan got the two items.


unfortunately, it does not come with the little "wrap" at the bottom of the book...but I guess I can live with it.


Can you find Nei??? She's somewhere in there...in pieces...How sad. I can't wait to fix her up!!!

Next step, I put the guy on the Japanese guides for PSI, PSII(the 2 of them), and PSIV...sadly the PSIII guides (the 3 of them) are lacking on Yahoo Japan.

But even better, I'm on a lead to get the Phantasy Star Collection Rock-Zah art book. I will have confirmation about it tomorrow, and will put more details about how I got it then on the topic in the Parlor sub-forum

I'm almost done with all the important Phantasy Star official merchandises for the classic series, which was always a dream of mine (only unofficial thing I'm searching for is Toyo Ozaki PSIII art book, if anyone have any lead on it, please contact me)...Stay tuned....

That's odd. For some reason I can't get ファンタシースタ (Phantasy Star) to go through as a valid search phrase at the moment. Hoping its just Yahoo doing some maintenance to the site or something of that nature.

Can still perform searches for full full titles Phantasy Star Online and Universe, just the "Phantasy Star" search that isn't working.

really, i tried the link I posted few post ago, and its still working fine. I'm using that link everyday now to see new Phantasy Star offer. And it doesnt have failed me yet...this is really weird

That was really odd. It's working for me again now. Guess it was some sort of glitch.
