I've been a silent collector for a long time. I have many collectible titles including a real asterix and rubik's cube. I check all my high profile carts by cartridge flexing to remove/check the pcb when possible.
I've been prompted to make an account and my first posting because I've been running into more and more unspecified repros by sellers. Example below is a quadrun which I purchased without fully examining. I should have noticed the missing 000020 at the bottom. It shipped as a peculiar grey, not foil. this was hard to determine in the photos before purchase. The seller then went on to relist the item. I've watched the listing through several purchase cycles after getting mine. I've also run into repros of halloween and texas chainsaw massacre from etsy.com witch were even harder to determine.
I won't post the specific listing, as to avoid direct accusations. I simply want people to be aware and perhaps double check these details that I overlooked in this purchase.
heads up. sellers not specifying repros.
