FND #3 Posted August 7, 2011 One of the very few I need to complete my set. Unfortunately starting bid is far out of my price range. Sadly that seems to be True for just about every games system, when I get down to the last few titles I need to complete the collection the cost goes up accordingly less then 10 hrs left on this one Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
