Yeah, but they are PAL releases, probably a collector getting out or the sadder aspect of being a collector and someone is selling off an estate. There's nothing exeedingly rare to my knowledge. And one picture is probably due to the amoung that was put up.

Ofcourse, I wouldn't know if any are fake based on all that. So far nothing has telltale signs of fakery to me. Just someone trying to sell off some cheap games.

If you're gonna make counterfeit N64 games, at least make sure the top, bottom, and sides of the box aren't all the same color and clearly cropped from custom cases, lol.

I just browsed recent sales and it looks like 1/3 of the sales are for counterfeit cartridges.  The worst part is that some counterfeits have holographic labels now so it's difficult to tell without opening up the cartridge.

Hey guys. I'm not quite up to date on some of the reproduction lingo, but can anyone confirm or deny if this is a reproduction?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ninja-Gai...

He mentions he bought it from a site that specializes in "new old" stock, but I'm not sure what that means. The condition is excellent, and the price is fair, but I'm kind of getting the feeling new old stock means reproduction. Thanks in advance!

EDIT: After doing some research, it seems I was just being overly cautious, as "new old stock" is apparently a really common term I'm surprised I haven't heard before.

The high dollar boxes in this lot are all fake. Wild Guns, Mega Man X, Mario Kart and SMash Bros. I'm sure the seller is lying about finding them in a storage locker.

Hah, I took a look at the listing 20 mins ago and it was pretty obvious in the picture showing the boxes open that those ones were fake.
Now I refresh the ebay listing and noticed that picture is no longer on the listing.

This is a reseal, fairly convincing one if you are just glancing at it. Almost placed a snipe on it today but realized it was a reseal on closer inspection.

Having trouble telling if the label is authentic on this one. Seller has a neutral feedback from last year stating he sold a game with a repro label which has me a bit worried, but most of his stuff seems fine. Anyone able to help me out before I place a bid?

Edit: new front label added to description

One day auction for a sealed copy of Aero Fighters. Brand new seller with no feedback. The only picture in the listing is taken from an ebay auction in 2014 (item number 351044016201). The same seller also has one day auctions for CIB Mega Man 7, X, X2, and X3, sealed Hagane, sealed Super Copa, and Sealed Earthbound.

I was watching this one too.  I figured it was too blatantly obvious to fool anyone on here.  I hope I was right.  Seller with 0 feedback, brand new account, posting sealed copies of aerofighters, EVO (PAL), All 4 Megamans, Little Samson, Etc.  One picture for each listing, all look like they were taken with different cameras in different areas.  This screamed fake so hard my ears were bleeding.

If you squint real hard you can see where he put "reproduction" on the labels. Otherwise, at least to me, they look like exact copies. He seems to be making a lot of these fakes as well. Pretty much any game you want, he'll make a fake of it for you.

I think this SE label was cut with lefty scissors. I don't know why he even showed the board pic. But it was passed down to him. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Family-Fu...
