  1. I just got some 5200 games from Venezuela. Not only did someone (presumably an inspector) completely trash the boxes while slashing them open, but they even opened one of the cartridges! (The screw is missing, the back is cracked, and the bottom and side are marred with pry marks.)

      I was just about to say 'animals', but you beat me to it! Sorry you had a shit experience with customs. I too have been lucky in the past, but haven't bought anything recently from down there. Have heard way too many horror stories as of late.

      Didn't you know? That's the main way drugs come into the United States (inside Atari 5200 games).

      While drug smugglers seem to be using all sorts of objects and artifacts to hide it in, I wonder if there ever have been proof of using vintage cartridge shells to hide your cocaine, which I assume is what the customs are looking for in detail when they see a package from Venezuela or similar countries.
