Pardon my french but what the fuck is this import charges bullshit on ebay. Do sellers really think im that fucking stupid. Lol. However, if we could somehow verify that the data was indeed on that disc, we could all pitch in a few bucks and buy it... or not? Still, that guy just wants to make money.
The guy figured out how to boot it and uploaded some gameplay. Looks like it's not the full game. It's just a demo and doesn't even have a menu. Maybe he would have been better off not making a video since everyone thought it was likely a close-to-complete game. Good luck getting that $500!
He was in a position that he had to produce visual evidence that the GD-ROM disc really existed (he did state that). His true lack of knowledge of the "Dream Cast" (see his video title above) including buying one just for the video demonstration shows his portrayal of being "one of us" is totally a deception to get our trust (and wallet). This guy has all of the makings of being a stereotypical used car salesman.

The thing actually sold! Wow! There wasn't even a single watcher with 5 hours left but someone bid on it at the last second. Apparently the winning bidder has disposable income.

I guess the buyer is a dreamcast fan. He might share the demo with the community perhaps. Looks like a poor game though and just a demo.

it is something new, it covers A) the custom charges when you order something abroad, and is B) printed/written on the outside of the parcel so C) customs simply let it pass in stead of holding it there for a few days/weeks. so it is actually a good thing
