Could find a copy of R-Type Final, so tried ebay, none on sale from UK based people so searched further-a-field, found

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?View (space) Item&item=3041930141&category=27256&rd=1

Bidding up to about $9.00 so far, with days to go, cheap price, but Postage $45.00, emailed chap thinking it was an error and got this reply:

"There's no error. It is the shipment and handling fee.

Thanks for your inquiry !"

Umm, so only £54 in total so far, it's different to setting a reserve I suppose....

Only an idiot would charge (or pay) that ammount for shipping. The most it'd be is about $9.

$9+$45=$54 which means if you win the bid the price will be about £47
