Again, trust me, voiding it is definitely the right thing to do.
Yea I saw this after the auction had ended and became more suspicious

It's fake. He, or someone else, made that..

I'm sure someone here will be noting what board that is. I would but NESCart DB is blocked at work.

Thanks for all the info. This helps alot. Do you think it has any value as rare reproduction?

Also, you mentioned buying Tank Command from this dude, I'm wondering if that was a fake? I'd take a really long look at the label.

And since I am getting wild questions, EPROMS normally would mean it is real, but the wires, the fact I know who made it, I know the handwriting, and this was already mentioned by Mr. Mark in a copy/paste to a thread I posted in two years ago I think this has been answered in full that this is not real by any means.

Wow, relisted: http://www.ebay.com/itm/MATCHBOX-...

This time with a link to NA's own record of the game. Boy, I hope a mod doesn't go into the description and modify it to show that a fake copy of the game is often attempted to be passed off as the real thing...

He told me that his game is the actual game shown in the na database picture. He said the label came off w age so he retaped it. He also said he owned it for a long time but could not recall the source. IMO I don't think he is purposely tring to scam anyone I think that he is just convinced that it is real.

He got it from a guy selling it on eBay from Iowa. The label was made to be similar. He thinks he has the right one but opening it proves it was the one I sold awhile ago. The only real one I have a pic of and it was just sold this morning.

I thought he told you he got it from Etler?

The guy is either a con artist, a retard, or (my guess) a combination of the two.

Regardless of what he thinks the game is NOT FUCKING REAL!  I mean, how many roundabout ways to people need to say it.  There is one copy, and he doesn't own it.  The end.

Just for the record I just purchased Dreams copy of Scarabeus for an undisclosed amount, so I now own the only know real copy of Scarabeus. Just so no one tries to say mine is fake lol.

Lol. Nice one.

Has anyone contacted him and let him know that he has a reproduction? Maybe he is just ignorant, and not trying to scam anyone.

Yes, I did sell Scarabeus so now it can be followed.

I think if one other transaction goes through I'll have 50 protos sold today, rofl

Yes I made it pretty clear to him, but he seems still think it is legit saying there is no proof it is a reproduction

Hmm.. I wonder if a recent sale for a particular Zelda proto has anything to do with your sudden boost in sales? lol

Then screw him then. Maybe a HoS candidate..?
