Disgaea: Hour of Darkness...$30 or less?

[CatchFiveBats]

Just to be clear, Disgaea is worth every cent of $50.

Oh, absolutely.  I have a couple friends who have it, one of whom has beaten it, and the other is fairly far in it.  Both of them have told me several times that it's incredible.

also note that the $36 is because it doesnt have instructions, which is often a big deal for rare RPG's.

Ill pick it up someday.

Just wanted to thank the OP for bringing this game to my attention.  Played it a bit this weekend, and I really liked it.  I think that tactical strategy/rpg might be my favorite game genre.  

Levelling up your items is a bit weird, there's a lot to grasp but it's a fun game.

Just to warn you, this game will suck away the hours.  I am about 90 hours into the game, and my main character is only at level 86 of about 99,999 levels.  I can easily  see putting over 1000 hours on this game.  Seriously.

I figure I'll get to one of the endings then move on to La Pucelle.

I found it! I was at the Dixieland Flea market today and the guy had a CIB copy for $12. I talked him down to $10.

It looks like it's never been played.

so I guess you'll be getting a PS2 soon eh?

[CatchFiveBats]

Holy goodness, that's an incredible deal.  Great find!

No. Not for awhile. Probably not going to buy a PS2 until it drops to under $50. No rush for me.

Thanks. I thought so, too. In fact, I had to do a double take when I saw the price. If I was playing poker at that moment, I would've been able to have been read like a book!

I do have to give the whole rfG board credit here. Because without everyone's hunting success stories involving flea markets and the like I probably would've never even thought about checking them out for games.

[den68]

great. does that mean I'll have you as competition now on my hunting grounds?

[phoenix1967]

Not likely. At least not on a regular basis...

[Sauza12]

Hmmm, Dixieland.  I've been meaning to go there for a few years now, but I just never felt up to the drive.  Maybe I'll go in soon if deals like that can be found there.

I'm not going to make any promises, because I'm not as savvy a shopper as most of the game-hunters on this board. It just seemed that I was in the right place at the right time. BTW, thanks for the recommendation on the game itself.

I will say that there are several dealers that sell games and you should be able to barter at least a little and get some good deals. Also, this is one really big flea market! So even if you don't find the right deal for games, there's a good chance something else will capture your attention.
