The "cute little story" is straight from the seller. I know him because he buys up the flea market I visit.
It's not bullshit, unfortunately.

I'll definitely call him and tell him you guys want to see the board, if he doesn't have the tool, he can drive his ass over here and we'll open it together. First he has to turn his phone on.

I just got a message saying "Oh this one is not fake....I got this from a very reliable source. I'm not good with taking it apart and would rather not attempt...as I may damage it

- vampwolfgirl"

I wouldn't touch it personally.

Pics of the board would do more for me than the story. 

It also seems like you have a serious vested interest in the auction.

If you don't want to believe it, that's okay with me.
And I'm so impressed that you can analyze people through text on a forum, quite an ability indeed.
"Serious vested interest" lmao, you have a serious vested interest in causing arguements.

As soon as he answers me, I'll tell him you guys want pictures of the board, until then, relax with the conspiracies. Deal.

Yeah, don't you know if they open it one of those wires might snap right off?

I know so far that the seller is dishonest since it came from "a very reliable source", so there's that. Board pictures (and other non-grainy pictures) would definitely be in their best interest.

I am not sold on OP being in on the fake. 

We all have that acquantance that is an asshole, but we take their phone calls and talk to them somtimes. 

So OP's contact (not friend) texted him the CL listing and the car picture.  If OP is not familiar with SE then it all looks ok.  I didn't know about 3 or 5 screw unitl I researched it tonight.

So OP posted the find, as it is a rarity for NES, not knowing it may be a fake, and people asked if the contact was selling, so he posted the auction. 

It does not look good, but I am hesitant to lump the OP in with the seller, unless we get some more proof.

Just got off the phone with him, he opened it, and is taking new pictures of the board and manual pages, as you guys requested.

The seller's username is vampwolfgirl and the OP's avatar is a vampire, they're both vampires in this story, they must work together somehow lol.
