Funny how not even a week after the video this is now on eBay:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/the-powerpuff-girls-mojo-jojo-a-go-go-dexter-s-lab-deesater-gba-box-only-/264640804330

box & manuals only, so we still don't know what versions of the games were released, but maybe try asking the seller?

Definitely our winner of the lukie lot. He's listing everything that was in there.

Full disclosure: I bought the box a few minutes before your post.

It has the 2 codes for the individual games above the UPC. Coupled with lukie auctioning the box and no loose carts or rom known, my vote is still that there's 2 carts (and manuals) in there.

Chinese New year and the Corona virus

I know I could buy domestically but it's cheaper from china

Where'd you order? I have one coming from Ali Express and the whole kit was very affordable ($56 CAD). Spent an extra $10 on buttons and pads, though.

Dragon Warrior IV had been taunting me for a while so I'm glad to finally snag a nice quality copy. F-117A is one of those you don't hear much about, but can be tough to find in good condition with the poster. Digger T. Rock seems pretty fun from the few minutes I played, so I'll go back to that one some day.

Love Digger. Intro track and Cave 3 are great tunes.

Are you sure there is a no promo Duck Tales? The only ones I've seen are MM2, MM3, Mickey Mousecapade, and Chip N Dale.

This just ended on ebay.  $1700 sealed.

PC working as of this post, GVN is 404.

10:00 PM - The site is working for most requests for now. 99% of user requests will work just fine but requests might be slightly slower. Some database intensive features may not work (price guide downloads, collection importing, etc). We are still working on a more permanent fix and hope to have it up on the site soon.

@Nesmaster haha you knew that second bidder was me?!  I'm still pretty disappointed about missing this one.

I would love to get some photos of the game/IB . Maybe one day!

FWIW, The GBA rom set I checked ( ~16gb) also did not have a rom for this. I wonder who got the lukie cart.

Here's to hoping more turn up. 

So did anyone win Lukie's box lot? @coffeewithmrsaturn Someone else wanted the lot more. ;/

I think so. But anyone looking is probably going to want the USA-1 manual to go with it. Properly listed I believe you'd get a premium. The last Duck Tales I remember like this hit maybe 2x CIB, (~$120?) and the last Mega Man 2 like this that I noticed hit $350. It was a nice copy of the game though in its own right.

Did you enter the contest? lol

 

Pretty sure that was over by the time I played it. Without the manual, I never got out of the first level.

Bottom one is the legit copy, top one is the fake. Super easy to spot.

Look at the cover on the real copy. On the left is says

CGB-B3AE-USA

The black chip on the right says CGB-B3AE-0. Ignore the 0. If the rest doesn't match, it's a fake. 

The fake one has CGB-AZ8E-0 on that chip on the right.

So did you read the rest of the posts in here or?

Transaction gone wrong: Yes

Problem: Global Shipping Program

Gouged cart from box cutter, gouged box from box cutter, GSP repackaging in insufficient material, GSP repackaging in a box WAY TOO BIG, one time it came to my house for some reason and was left in the rain, and the privilege of paying way too much for these kind of headaches.

Outside the above, I've also had insufficient packaging, poor packaging, shipping an item that wasn't the shown item, scam listing, postal worker folding a snes box to fit in the mail box, cancelling a sale after I BIN, and more I'm probably forgetting.

Customs opened a sealed Caltron and Shockwave on me, different times and countries.

I did play it, and while I thought it to be okay, the whole thing is over in like 3-4 hours. Seems like a good idea that never really went anywhere.

Celeste and The Messenger have been the two absolute highlights for me, and Bloodstained: CotM prior to that. I haven't done Shovel Knight yet, but I want to.

I played Minit through game pass and had a good time, but not something I'll revisit.

Ziggurat is an older one that I adored, sunk like 40 hours into that. It's the only roguelite that I've tried and clicked with.

Is that Cool World poster a pack-in or an ad that someone placed with it? Does it have a NES code on it?

Also, I just had my first experience selling through the GSP and my buyers were ready to revolt. Needless to say, the fees are not well presented to the buyer.

It is a pack-in. I even double checked with the seller that the SNES poster didn't end up in there somehow

Waited for a nice box with poster for a while, and then got hammered with $40 USD through the global shipping program. Being a Canadian buyer is a bad time.

Wanted a CIB for quite some time, finally just went for one!

I just got Ufouria, and this was in the back page:

To me it looks like an intentionally damaged trace so the game wouldn't boot at all. If it did it would be Ages. Should see if he has a label shot for fun.

But isn't that a real Oracle of Ages in the top photo? What's the scam exactly according to that guy? Did he receive a broken Ages cart with a fake Shantae label?

I was fucking around with a mini dart set when I was younger, early 2000's, and put a dart through the side of my Earthbound box.

I grew up owning Skull & Crossbones, so I'll always love it. Bee 52 and Micro Machines were rental favorites.

Outside of some Tengen and Camerica, I could happily go without playing the rest of them ever again. I do like one of the Hot Slots tunes, though

First purchase of 2020 arrived. Found it by accident on ebay doing the "view other listings" on the seller. I wrote off the game due to how it's spiked, but the condition and price meant I couldn't leave it.
