Geez, what service did you use?! Are you sure that fee doesn't include shipping? You have to watch out for the exchange rate... JPY is strong against USD (I miss the days of $1 = ¥120 ). The winning bid of ¥3,080 is $38.31.

Rinkya charges an extra 15 for shipping to them and then there was the 20 dollar commission fee plus paypal's fees. The total came to 74.84. I would really love to know what the commission fee was for. I may have to resell some of the keychains since all I wanted was the Dordray one.
e: Holy thunderous Odin! I told my mom about it (read: complained) and she said she'd pay for all the stuff I bought and pay for shipping. She does not realize that I bought slightly more than a pack of keychains.

So what the heck do you do after winning a VO4 pilot card dispenser? Gut it, of course. It's sad to see this.MentholMoose wrote:Here's a "VO Force Terminal"... the card dispenser for VO4. Starting bid ¥50,000. EDIT: They dropped the price to generate some interest, which really worked (26 bids). It ended up selling for ¥50,001.

Re: Yahoo! Japan Auctions thread
Yahoo! Japan Auctions seller may_cat_cat, who recently sold a VO4 "terminal" (pilot card dispenser), has a new auction, this time for a VO4 ROM with Hikaru board and power supply, the I/O board, a card reader with power supply, and various harnesses. Starting bid is ¥70,000 with reserve price of a whopping ¥150,000!
EDIT: Still unsold even after a price drop to only ¥60,000.
バーチャロンフォース基盤 カードリーダー付き! Also from may_cat_cat is a VO4 control panel, housing, and I/O board. Starting bid is ¥10,000 (note that shipping this to the US would be about that much, if not more).
EDIT: A price drop generated some interest, currently bidding is at ¥7,611. Also I think shipping to the US will be way more than ¥10,000... shipping only the panel would cost that much, but this auction includes the housing, too, which has to be heavy. I'm thinking ¥20,000 for shipping.
EDIT 2: Sold for ¥12,111. Not a bad price.

Re: Yahoo! Japan Auctions thread
Here are some more pieces of a VO4 Terminal from seller busaikukamekichi. I'm curious if he will offer the ROM... I'm not even sure what board it uses (VO4 uses Hikaru but that seems like overkill for a card dispenser).

Re: Yahoo! Japan Auctions thread
Here are spare parts for the VO4 controls from may_cat_cat. I put in a bid at ¥7,500 and was outbid. I want this, but not that bad. Honestly there is only one part I want (the spring catches) since that is subject to the most wear and tear... the rest will last a long time as long as you are careful. EDIT: Sold for ¥18,000.

Re: Yahoo! Japan Auctions thread
And here's another VO4 Terminal component, the control panel and housing, from the machine busaikukamekichi is gutting. I also put in a bid of ¥7,500 and was outbid already. Shipping this thing will probably be expensive so I don't plan to increase my bid. EDIT: I increased my bid but still lost. It sold for ¥15,000.

Here's a VER.5.2 Versus City panel from seller cyberdaioo. The panel condition looks fine but the sticks look kind of dirty. Current bid is ¥10,500. I've bought these before and EMS shipping to the US is about ¥5,500. EDIT: WOW, this sold for ¥29,600!

Re: Yahoo! Japan Auctions thread
Seller france_14111 has four, count them, four VO4 PCBs on auction. Two are listed as "junk" and presumably non-functional, starting at ¥1,000:
VIRTUAL-ON FORCE 「バーチャロン4」☆ 画像不良ジャンク!1 - EDIT: Sold for ¥14,050.
VIRTUAL-ON FORCE 「バーチャロン4」☆ 画像不良ジャンク!2 - EDIT: Sold for ¥13,050.
Along with two that do work. One starts at ¥20,000, the other at ¥30,000 apparently since it includes the service manual:
VIRTUAL-ON FORCE 「バーチャロン4」☆ PCBのみ - EDIT: Sold for ¥40,000!
VIRTUAL-ON FORCE 「バーチャロン4」☆ PCBのみ - EDIT: Sold for ¥40,501!
The pics are from the last auction since they are all basically the same.

YJA seller mumon18 has a couple VOOT auctions going on now. The first is a VOOT VER5.66 PCB with Naomi motherboard, PSU, I/O board, wiring harnesses, and apparently a VER.5.2/5.4 marquee. The bidding starts at ¥18,000. EDIT: Sold for ¥19,000.
バーチャロン、オラトリオ、タングラム基盤 He also has a VER.5.2/5.4 deluxe control panel (pic quality is terrible so it's hard to see). EDIT: Sold for ¥15,000.

Here's another VER.5.2 Versus City panel, from seller taromiko2003, starting at ¥10,000. Pricing on these has been really high lately, it will be interesting to see if the trend continues. EDIT: Sold for ¥30,000... amazing!

Here are two auctions for VER.5.4 ROMs and Model 3 boards from seller premier957. There does seem to be a sticker showing the revision but I cannot make it out. Bidding for both started at ¥8,000 and have several bids. EDIT: They sold at relatively reasonable prices, ¥15,000 and ¥13,000, respectively.

Re: Yahoo! Japan Auctions thread
More VER.5.2 Versus City panels are showing up! It's amazing to see so many lately, but they have been selling for high prices so it's not too surprising. I like these things but I have several spares already and really can't justify the high prices (after shipping and fees they will be near $500 at recent prices). The first is from seller premier957 and started at ¥8,000 (EDIT: sold for only ¥19,500), while the second is from taromiko2003 and starts at ¥10,000 (EDIT: sold for ¥28,500)
I am curious as to why prices have been so high lately. I can only guess why. Maybe there are rumors about a new VO game being in the works that I haven't heard about. Or maybe the dedicated VO4 players want a true arcade perfect experience (these panels are the most convenient way). I thought the Hori TSEX was in stock recently so I don't know why these panels are so pricey.
