Hehehe No need, I have both CDs and already ripped in lossless.

Thanks guys, yes it was quite a long wait to finally get it.

The only reference I had of its existence was the music catalog that came on the PC88 version of the game. It has the catalog number, a small tape icon and price below the CD.

Whatever it is. It looks worth the money

I have found Metal Gear Solid 2: Platinum Edition (SEALED), Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (SEALED) and Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence (SEALED)
at bargain prices today. Guess it is my lucky day

I have been encountering an item like this months ago before I became very active here. But I simply ignored it. Now, I think I'll watch out for them again.

How do you guys think this differ to the other boxset 20th anniversary pack?

!!!

This item is a bootleg. It's not an officially licensed Konami item. When it first hit the scene I actually contacted Konami about it (as I was skeptical it was legit as it was orginating from mainland China) and it's as authentic as a Miya branded soundtrack.

76,000Y for the black sorter? You could have had mine with original shipping box and message card for only $1000!

+1 I have actually contacted a few places too, they say it is bootleg and the manufacturing company is from china, non legit.

this is usually on the AU ebay market though

Yeah, as a general rule of thumb for buying from China:

Hong Kong =most likely legit
Rest of China = most likely a bootleg

HK has a much higher crackdown on bootleg items

LOL!

Well, maybe not to you.

But the last time a gold shareholder package closed with original Konami shipping box and message card it went for over $1200! Shortly after a sealed one closed without the box or message card and it went for $350.

Without box and card 35,500Y http://page8.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/h61549986
Wtih box and card 131,000Y http://page2.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b91680589

So to you it may not be (and honestly, it isn't to me either), but to some collectors it is. Or mabye it's not interesting but it is valuable.
