Its in Australian dollars.

SR2 and GTA 4 are both 60, while SR1 and JC are most likely 20 each. (US Dollars of course.) Work with that.

A little warning to those who buy shit on eBay.
Do a little more extensive research before buying stuff.

I bought a 2GB stick of ram off of there for about 40 bucks and my dad bought the same exact kind for 30 bucks (and it wasn't on eBay).

Not a great deal, but pretty good. It's more expensive to buy all four of those from amazon and that's before shipping, so I think you made a good choice bidding on it.

ebay used to be a great way to get deals, but they changed it so now it stinks.
I remember waiting until the last 10 seconds of bidding to place a bid, and steal the deal from some other jerk :)
now u cant do that

bad deal

Just Cause - 20
Saints Row - 15
Saints Row 2 - 40
GTA 4 - 35

110 US dollars total. You spent almost twice as much.
And this is BRAND NEW we're talking.
Used would've been about 70+ total.
