ebay. If you wanna but online expect to pay more than $60. If you want them cheap your gonna have to get lucky at a store like EB or Gamestop.

That person is right. You would be lucky. You have to consider 2 things, one your gonna need someone ignorant enough to sell it to one of those places, 2nd your gonna need an ignorant staff, 3rd your gonna need to grab it before someone else does.

Try smaller mom and pop stores with used games, any store with used games (that have Playstation that is) garage sells. Thats the only way you'll get it under $60 (although part 1 might for for that on ebay if your lucky) But if you do find it there it's likely to be under $30, $0 at the most.

Don't lose hope. I got my Suikoden I three months ago because someone ignorant traded in Suikoden I to my EB location. I warned him while he was doing it that we'd only give him 5 bucks credit.. but he took it. Now I have my mint condition Suikoden I.. if I don't have a II before I get my credit card, then i'm going to EBAY.

I'd leave a note with any games store in town, used or not. I leave a list of games I want, and ask to be notified if they ever come in. It's about five bucks, but it's worth it. That's how I got Suikoden I and Valkyrie Profile for the standard Twenty dollars. The staff doesn't have to be dumb, because the official price should be at most twenty dollars for a playstation game-I had to argue that thoroughly for Valkyrie Profile.

Another option, is Truck Stops. They have stacks of games for three dollars. Usually they are the cheap, really bad games nobody really wants, but you get lucky sometimes. That is where my golden star came from, a sealed copy of Xenogears. I also found Persona in a truck stop. I know I have seen copies of Arc the Lad and other good games at some stops. It seems wrong, but hey, crazy things happen, and people often pawn off good stuff.

I was looking at Gamestop and they have preowned copies of Suikoden 2 for 50 and preowned copies of Suikoden 1 for 28.00. They are out of stock right now though. It would probably be worth it to look into it. They have a thing on the site that they will send you an email when an item comes back in.
