Nice! Congratulations dude, seems to be a cheap DK Math feeding frenzy recently. Hopefully this will make more pop up. I would love to have a stack of them, although I have the feeling someone else has already done that.

The front of that DK Jr. Math is so nice and clean, it was a darn good deal, and you have a great story behind it. That's collecting at its finest.

GREAT DEAL

Thanks guys. I honestly never thought I would get this game without selling half my collection so I'm happy I get to keep my stuff! I know it's not on mint condition but it does look real nice from the front and the side that sticks outn the shelf so I'll just never turn it over and we'll all pretend it's mint from now on ok?

I thought I told you that we won't stop, I thought I told you that we won't stop.

By the way, Chris is such a cool dude. He absolutely loves this stuff and so it's totally easy to cut him a deal on things. When you come across folks who truly love items, hook them up!

Great collection, my man!

GREAT DEAL

Thanks a lot guys. I'm going to get box protectors for everything soon but for now they are pretty safe we're they are. I dont handle them too often anyway. Only need two more DK Jr. Mary's to have them all . Just need a Stack Up CIB, and a Mario Bros, DK 1, and DK3 cart to have one full Black Box set. Not bad considering four moths ago all I had was a beat up Baseball and Golf CIB.

Thank god someone bought that Sqoon. I remember seeing it at $450 and thinking "what a deal". Then saw it at $400 and thought wow, how is that not selling? That game is BRUTAL to find CIB is nice shape, even if that hangtab is punched. I'm assuming you paid a bit less through an NA deal with how long it sat, but that is quite an excellent pickup. People that passed over it will probably kick themselves in the future if they needed it.

I actually paid slightly more than the asking price. I had been eyeballing it for months and also could not believ it didn't sell. I saw that he dropped the price but I had just spent a good amount of money getting that other DK Jr. Math box and manual so I didn't have enough. Wanted to make sure nobody else snatched it up before I could buy it so I offered acidjaguar a little more cash to seal the deal and he held it for me a little bit. Hes a way cool dude. I was happy to pay what I payed for what I got, it's a beauty.

I've been having lots of success getting PAL Euro BB's off the different European eBay sites. Anyone have any suggestions on where is a good place to look for Asian and/or Hong Kong Versions? I tried eBay Hong Kong but I'm not having any luck.

I'm really surprised you didn't snatch this one up. I thought for sure you would get it before me. You'll get there soon enough, I'm sure. That one hell of a milestone to hit, all R9's.

I was thinking of nabbing it when I seen it at $400 but I've stopped buying $250+ items other than competition stuff for a while now. Not saying what for but I need $9k by April 15 to give to another member here. Hopefully I don't have to sell some of my current R9s to meet that goal.

On topic though your set is REALLY beautiful so far. Can't wait to see your next update.

Will you say after you get it? You can't dangle a carrot like that and not let us ever have a taste

Updated with two new ones I got in today. Does anybody know what's up with the Asian Version SMB in the long box? I thought the Asian Versions were all in the small boxes?
