I will be listing various series items, new products, and rare goods from time to time. Most of my collection has been stored in a dark location, so many items are in relatively good condition. There are a number of complete sets with bands and postcards included. I would appreciate it if you could check out my other listings as well. Collectors, how about taking this opportunity? 【Condition】 The case and disk have no noticeable scratches or dirt and are clean. The manual and postcard are also in good condition. It is an almost unused item in excellent condition. There were no issues when confirming operation. This is the most expensive premium software in my PS collection. I played it once, but it was too difficult, so I quit quickly. It's a cult classic work, isn't it? Perhaps for that reason, it has become quite a premium item. I have regretfully decided to part with it due to certain circumstances. How about taking this opportunity? Please understand the description and product condition, and I request no claims or returns. Shipping will be via Click Post. I will pack it nicely with bubble wrap. 【Regarding bundling with Click Post】 Bundling is possible, and it's recommended since shipping costs will be cheaper. However, due to the variation in case thicknesses for different software, it might not always be possible. For example, in the case of PlayStation software, Type A ## Collector note This near-unused copy of *Serial Experiments Lain* for PlayStation represents a rare find within a cult classic series that first aired in 1998, known for its groundbreaking exploration of consciousness and technology. As a limited edition release featuring a postcard, this item appeals to collectors drawn to unique media artifacts that reflect the series' impact on anime and gaming culture. The excellent condition of the disc, manual, and accompanying materials significantly enhances its desirability, particularly among dedicated fans of the genre and those seeking to preserve lesser-known but influential works from Japan's rich animation history. With collector demand typically driving prices in this range, this item exemplifies the quality and care prevalent in early-run Japanese products. ## Images - https://auctions.c.yimg.jp/images.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/image/dr000/auc0112/user/a29ff78f6e3284150ec74f1f680c29fb0f4cff9cc4cf3a85f54d6ebcc5f29d11/i-img1200x1024-17667977537030mvzbu8206046.jpg ## Links - View on Rinkya: https://www.rinkya.com/discover/item/type-b-ps-serial-experiments-lain-with-postcard-near-unused-condition-v1213912229 - Find live items like this: https://www.rinkya.com/discover/live --- Rinkya is a proxy bidding & shopping service for buyers outside Japan.
