Where are you shopping to get those prices? Gotta shop around a bit in Akihabara, it's usually the OEM stuff in the little stores that have the best prices. Retail in Japan at Sofmap or Joshin will bleed you dry in no time.

Funny thing is that all the OEM drives I've bought in Japan have had full warranty in the US. Makes no sense.

I'm pretty sure we were in Akihabara. It was just rows of electronic stores. I didn't get to look around much though, my mom was all pissy at the time.

I just ate some spicy seaweed onigiri and it sucked a fat one. I accidentally got that kind instead of tuna or salmon or shrimp. God damnit :|

Hey MAME If you can get me some Sonic Plush dolls I will PAYPAL extra What ever it costs. There SUPER hard to get in the states and my son wants these SOOOO!!!! bad.

He wants :

Sonic
Knuckles
Shadow
Tails

And any bad guys.

I am being VERY SERIOUS about paying WAY! Above what you get them for. I've heard there VERY easy to get over there. If not the Plush dolls the hard plastic fiqures will also do.

Come on Brotha help a fellow Mamer out. :beer::D

Ok guys, I am willing to buy things for anyone but ONLY if you're 100% serious.

Please PM me and we can talk about it. I would like the money up front and it would also be nice if you could talk with me via AIM as well (give me your aim name in the pm). I would need to be emberced for the item as well as the cost to travel to get the item.

Please please have a picture of what you want. I don't want to screw anyone over!
