My game selection problems are over.
I had been eyeing the original Final Fantasy VII for some time, and decided finally to ask a local game store, Game Force, if they had a copy of it. This came about mostly because one of my friends got it and watching her play it made me want it badly. Well, they had it, but only a copy that had no case or booklet to it, so he gave it to me cheaply.
I got it home and to my disappointment, the game didn't work, so I returned it to the store, for which they said they would give me store credit and call me the second they got a new one in, something that sometimes takes months.
Well, lo and behold, the very next day I got a phone call saying they had a mint condition, non greatest hits version in, complete with booklet and game guide, (a total of usually around $90 or so on ebay) and would I like it? I told them yes, and when I went and got it, I expected to have to pay a bit extra. Well, the guy said that they would just take my store credit for it.
The moral of the story is, I got my grubby little paws on a nice, almost perfect copy of Final Fantasy VII for very cheap, and am loving the game.
So much for playing survival horror next. ^_^

Well, there's more than survival horror in Heaven.
FFVII is one of my all-time favorite games, and you got an amazing deal. People pay rediculous coin for non-greatest hits labeled stuff. I really can't complain about pricing, since a friend of mine owns a vintage video game shop. He sold me the entire PSone FF set (VII, VIII, IX, Tactics) for $80. Hope you enjoy the game Heaven.

I got FFVIII in that old big paper box they used to put games into in the past (inside a normal double CD case of course and A5 format booklet). My uncles found it on eBay in, I guess, 2003 and send me for birthday ^^ Some may also call it a luck but I guess it cost a pretty penny ^^"
