$28 to $35?!? Damn!!! I only gave $15 for my US version, but that was 2 years ago too. I think that the most that I ever paid for a used PSX shmup was $24.95 for Einhander from a lucky trip to GameXchange last winter. It's in excellent condition and I got the instructions too. I guess that I live a charmed shmuping life. :P
Well, I just bought mine in September, of 2005. The dude who sold it to me said, "It's one of the rarest PSX games ever! :shock:. And $35 is the lowest price you'll find!", like I didn't know about the game or something :roll:. I didn't feel like searching/bidding for a copy online, so I went ahead and bought it.

I bought Einhander at GameCrazy for only $12. That was back when they first opened. Now I think it goes for around $25-$30. I too was lucky. :D
