Dain, I saw somebody sell this guide on ebay. Was that you? He was charging about $25 for it.

All the NTSC versions on ebay at the moment have the non-transparent seal the one with white background, one of them is even VGA graded does that mean they are still the bootleg versions?

I don't understand. Can't someone just make an EXACT replica of the NTSC label? Besides the april fools cart's which are designed (I assume) to be distinguishable, can't some low-life with label making experience make an exact copy that is literally impossible to tell? If the actual game can be reroduced easily you'd think someone could manufacture one that is identical to the original NTCS version

Not bootleg, PAL.

Yes, they may get away with it on ebay. But once the collector receives it, opens it up, makes a closer inspection of the label, it will be caught. However, someone who isn't a collector and doesn't know what to look for could think they have a genuine copy.

below the seller info, message him about it and if he doesn't change/take down his listing then he should be reported but there is a chance the seller doesn't know so you should contact him first, just my opinion

*and i say that because the seller may have been scammed when they got it and also the fact that they have so many pics available, ballsy scammer or just no idea its fake???

...also his price is high, if he's scamming he is obviously prepared to wait a while

ok this is just ridiculous

http://cgi.ebay.com/stadium-event...

they ripped the seal and 'reproduction game" off the label and they have pictures of the cart showing UV EPROMS!!! and yet there's still bids up to $405 CDN

-------------------------
If you have any GBA signage or kiosk I would be interested. Please send me a PM because I'm only here about once a month now but I'm still VERY interested in large system signage or small playable kiosks related to the GBA.

At least that seller is decent enough to note that SE is a PAL copy.
