Complete ibara pcb set sold for £217.00 on ebay!

[mtbd500]

Did anyone see this on ebay, i don't know much about arcade boards but this seem's like the absolute bargain of the century?, i don't even have a cab and i was tempted to bid, i think i saw one of these sell for nigh on a grand about a year ago?......

That was only for UK bidders.

Edit: There is another seller in ebay who sells the same set for more and no one buys it, so i don´t think it as really low price.

[exquisite_torture]

Fuck me! Scabby, gyppo bastards are still hawking MAME and roms as ARCADE COLLECTIONS on eBay.

[Smraedis]

Ibara dropped really low in price, so this is nothing surprising, even though it is a full kit.

[Xeno]

So why has the price dropped? Is it really that hard so "no one" wants it or?

[Smraedis]

I don't think the game did so well in Japan, and the PS2 port is worth quite a lot (even though it's not very good)

[shmuppyLove]

I think the PS2 version is so highly valued because of the Arrange mode.

Kuro/Black Label is where it's at for the PCB too.

Is this really a serious "OMG an Ibara full sold for $340 on ebay" thread or am i missing something here ?

What if I told you I bought the PCB for $160 ? Would you create another thread about this?

Do you know about google.com ? Just wondering

Good price !
Its about what I paid for my Full Kit 2 years ago but the price has been going up a little recently .

Yes it seems you are missing something, manners, as is evident from your sarcastic retort and how is google gonna help me find the average price of a secondhand arcade board?. If your not interested in a post don't reply, simple.

You could use the search functionality on the Trading Station forum; there have been several Ibara's sold there, and most of the prices are still listed. Additionally there is a "What's it Worth?" thread in that forum with the same information.

[Yes Boss!]

Seems about right. I paid $400 shipped for a new kit 2 and 1/2 years ago. Even I knew I overpaid a bit at the time, but it was from Arcade Shock and new.

Perhaps try typing in 'Ibara PCB' and looking at the hits it gives you. Welcome to the forum. Might want to check the attitude at the door and you'll do fine.

Just because i'm new to posting on the forum, does not mean i have to let people talk to me like i'm an idiot. Google ibara pcb and most of the hits are for videos, new kits and reviews.

My quote seems's to have been taken out of context, i don't actually want to know the second hand price of an ibara board, my initial post was a remark on the seemingly rock bottom price the ibara set has reached, i seem to remember it selling for nearly a £1000.00 a year or two ago but thanks for the advice anyway, the trading station would be the benchmark i would use if i wanted to evaluate an item.

You might have to get super creative and throw the word "price" in your search.

And no, the price wasn't higher a couple of years ago. If anything it's gone up in value. You are confusing it with Ibara Kuro most likely.

Don't make ill informed posts and get all upset when people point it out then. You made a post pointing out a not surprising price for a game. We pointed out this was actually about the going rate. You proceed to get all pissy and start throwing attitude around. You may be new to the forums, and obviously from looking at a lot of the posts here these days you would assume its cool to make inane posts with no real content, but it's not, and when you do, you are likely going to get sarcastic responses and ball busting. Welcome to shmup forum 2012.

If you had bothered to actually look around, either here or through google, you could have saved yourself all of this grief.

Live, learn and move on.

I suppose someone else downloading 4GB of roms is worth £2.50.

[cools]

Should've sold for double at least, highbrow gaming experience right there.

Brent sg was right, i was confusing ibara with ibara kuro, i never professed to be an expert so this thread can now be thrown in the bin.
