Is the price justified? Original G1 Dino cassettes and not the K.Os

Motto: "Power to the strong and the right!"
Weapon: Plasma Cannon
I recently saw from an online Japanese store the following Cassettes

1. C-121
2. C-123
3. C-122
4. C-124

All are opened/used but without any Bio cards. Condition more or less in between fine to near mint at US S 500.00 each at the current exchange rate. Is the price fair?

Fair? No, but it does seem to be about the going rate for them.

Thing is, their rarity is highly debatable, like Stepper's (until his reissue, poor guy) and Artfire's.
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Preparing to move to the US!

Agreed. Like I said; I don't think the price is fair because we simply don't know how rare they are.

Now that I own the KOs of them, the most I want to pay is 100 per cassette, and even that would have to be a darned good condition.
