This album is still in print. Buckets o'gold auctions can be avoided.

I had to use Shopping Mall Japan to get this, but I still saved quite a bit of money over the usual 10,000 yen+ used prices.

5184 vs 28,000? Dang... some people really try to take advantage of people who don't know any better. I'm a bit surprised though, I would imagine that if someone in Japan wanted the album they would be able to easily find it at the original price rather than the quadruple figure.

They still have the Out Run box too. I found out literally a couple of hours after buying one on Yahoo, and I felt like a complete idiot. Luckily, the price was similar but their shop offers free shipping on orders over 5,000, so I've spent like 14$ extra.

I'm going to get Golden Axe and Shinobi, I was mad I didn't buy them back then, so this might be the last chance

thanks for sharing

Thanks for the heads up!  I just ordered Golden Axe, which I'd been looking for.
