Trading & Selling @ Arcade center

Hearsay story : This team of a single Man (with dye yellow hair) and/or a Teenager boy had always been spotted at Lot 1 arcade trying to sell their Anmal kaiser cards (some english cards and alot Japanese cards for sale).The Golden hair guy had been there frequently and he is indeed very persuasive in selling the cards to those parents /kids there.

The problem is : Sometime people complain about their attitude as he is quite pushy in his words to ask parents to buy...but this type of sale tactic may cause discomfort to others.

Real encounter from one of our ZoneX forumer:XX道, which he shared on 7/11/2009:

Blog Master suggestion: Report him to the arcade's staff if he is overdoing over his "pushy" sale that had somehow become a nuisance to anyone there & had casue any form of disruption or discomfortable feeling to individual. Otherwise,express to him politely that you are not interested or simply just ignore him !

Is trading sale ok within the arcade ?
Rumours mention that some Seller sharing their bad experienc having been chased out of the center as he try to close deal (exchange card for $ transit).Reported are 2 places (one @ parkway arcade ,the other @ century square ) where the staffs DO NOT ALLOW business Touting within the gaming premise.

Another of our Zone-X forumer had posted the following from the Miscellaneous Offence Chapter 184 that reads:

Touting for business

32. Any person in any public road, public place, place of public resort or vehicle on a public road who, in connection with any trade or business (whether or not carried on by that person), solicits any other person persistently or in any manner as to cause or be likely to cause annoyance to that other person shall be guilty of an offence and shall be liable on conviction to a fine of not less than $1,000 and not more than $5,000 or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 6 months or to both and, in the case of a second or subsequent conviction, to a fine of not less than $2,000 and not more than $10,000 or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding one year or to both.

So , beware of the Law !! Obey and do not break them in any manner

Do you know ?
There are routine patrol from Policeman (usally they work 2 as a team) to spot-check arcade place at least 1-2 times a day. I've always hang around sembawang's Sun plaza (star Factory) and had seen this type of routine spot check quite often.

Will Policeman catch you for using PRINTED photocopied AK card @ arcade ?
Accordingly to some saying , as long as you put real $ into the animal kaiser machine to play the game , it is OK to use photcopied cards for fun playing. The arcade staff also never stop you from not using original card ~ more important to them is that you put CREDIT into the machine for hours of play ..then their business is solid lah..haha


Blog Master suggestion: If really need to deal any cards, both Seller and Buyer should do it outside the arcade place. Buyer should consider carefully and make purchase only if the price is right for his budget limit.


I am curious whether if any of us here had been warned / fine for using PRINNTED card ? Also wondering if any arcade staff had stop you from using such photocopied card within their game premise? We want you to Share with us your experience..

We welcome any feedback or suggestion regards this topic.

Price Trend : Champion Lion card

The 1st prize for Version 1 battle tournament = Champion Lion Card

However, current Anmal Kaiser Version 1 is coming to a end very soon.
(Everyone is now saving up & waiting for version 2)

So , what will be the next Champion card for Version 2 tournament ?
Rumours says that it is the Great white shark !
Photobucket

The next question is ...what will happen to the Champion Lion ?

There will be no more issue of Champion Lion from Version 2 onwards. And being the very 1st issue , this is a very IMPORTANT card for every animal kaiser Collector ! I can say that this is a MUST HAVE item ..die die also must get.(Not to be missed !)

Since there will be no more supply , demand will rise and hence will be the price .

Base on what i observed over past 2 months, the prices of champ Lion various from S$75(lowest) to S$180 (Highest).

Ebay Selles always like to start bid from S$100 or BIN(Buy it now) priced at S$150

Take note that our current Version 1 (champion Lion) is slighly cheaper or almost equal to current Version 8 (Jap Champion Gorilla Card). This is the 5th champion card issued in Japan. 1 seller @ Ebay had the starting price fix at S$130 and had the same BIN price at S$150.

Take note that Japanese Champion Lion card (which is issued 2 years ago for their version 1) is considered rare and can fetch close to S$200 if not more.. with current market.

All hardcore collector should get all 5 Japan champion cards..as a complete set

Current market price ?
If arcade center are no longer giving out champ Lion card , its value and price will GROW up with great demand !

Price Champion Lion card had been gone up slightly and stablilise around S$95 ~ S$110...it's value will continue to rise up over the time just like the Japan's Champion Lion card where collector are soughting for to complete their CHAMPION SET.
I will not be surprise if it will reach S$200 for a good condition champ lion card in 2 years time , assuming that Animal Kaiser continue to grow popularity in Singapore.

Hearsay story:One of the ALL-time-BEST experienced gamer who had won more than 10 champion Lion over these 3 months...mentioned that just last week in few days ,he had very good business until he's out of stock now. He continue to receive many calls for order.This is what i call BIG demand but less supply now.

Please be reminded that we are now into the last or second last week of version 1.

Timezone had already stopped all version 1 tournament since Oct09. Rumours says that Virtualland & Star factory had already stopped all version 1 tournament.Curently, if you want to win the last few available Champion Lion...ZoneX is the only hope now.
They may stop anytime too (pending version 2 launch)...So, Go get it before they are gone !!!


Note : The above pricing are personal Opinion from Blog Master. This is for pleasure reading and reference purpose only.

Winning Tips : Sure win Champion !

How to guarentee to win Champion Lion for version 1 battle tournament?

Tip:Gather 15 headcounts (friends/relative/family members etc) and include yourself to make up = total 16. Take down all the names & IC number particular, then approach any arcade center to register early.. preferly immdiately after current tournament end(so that you will be the 1st to book for next week's schedule). Entire Round 1 will be all your own people and whoever wins also doesn't matter ...the Champion Lion card + Gold deck box + Silver deck box will go to Organiser who will pay for everyone to play free. So the inestment cost is 16 x S$2 = S$32


Story hearsay(1):31% winning percentage
2 week ago @ Ang Mo Kio Big Mac center (Virtual land) ,Both Round 1 and Round 2 had the same 10 players from 2 families.
Family (1) = 5 members
Family (2) = 5 members
The remaining places are left for others to join...
So,the chance of Winning for each family = 5/16 = 31.25%

Result : Heard that one of the family's 4 years old daughter won the champion
(1st time !)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Story hearsay(2):100% winning percentage
Last week @ Bishan J8 (Virtualland) tournament Round 1 was book by 1 resourceful Aunty. She approach the staff with a listing of all name particulars and filled up the entire list for Round 1 (all 16 spaces occupied). Then , she ask for another sheet of registration paper and straight away filled up the same name lsiting for Round 2 !! The staff did not stop her beacause registration is base on 1st come 1st serve !!

That week tournament is just like a BIG party from the same "family " gang of 16 people ...other people who wanted to join the tournament...sorry loh...full house...wait another week ..wah ~ wah ~~

Result : Heard that her daughter won 1st prize in round 1...not sure about round 2.
Its a fantastic strategy deal....

Total cost :S$64 = 2 Champion Lion cards + 2 Gold decks + 2 Silver decks

So now...what are you guys waiting for? go get your army of 16 and start to register and book for entire month..haha


Latest update:
Rumour mention that one of the arcade center (White Sand ~ Virtualland) now had tighten their Registration process. They do not allow to register for Round 2 until all Round 1 ..16 spaces are filled up
