Carey85 #1 Posted December 11, 2009 Someone got a sweetheart deal on a Seamonster cart: eBay Auction -- Item Number: 250542297750 I was set to bid on it at the end but ebay decided it wanted me to sign in, thus killing my chance of getting it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Carey85 #3 Posted December 11, 2009 Yeah, but I knew I was going to be home so there wasn't no point in it. Was also certain that other AA'ers were set to fight for it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mirage #4 Posted December 11, 2009 That was one heck of a deal. Lots of nice stuff in there. Looks like maybe even a couple A8 carts too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carey85 #5 Posted December 11, 2009 Seeing as there is a set of Euro pads in there and Seamonster being the only real high profile cart in that lot, I can't help but think that it might be PAL. At least that's what I'm telling myself as I sip on this glass of rye and try to forget about it... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jess Ragan #6 Posted December 11, 2009 A seamonster... ATE MY ICE CREAM! (bounces around on his head for a while) So Carey... just what is happening to Amy in that avatar of yours? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carey85 #7 Posted December 11, 2009 (edited) I'll take "Getting F'd in the A" for $1000, Alex. Same thing that Bira Bira is doing to me at the moment. Edited December 11, 2009 by Carey85 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PAL versions have a different label Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+RandomPerson #9 Posted December 11, 2009 Wow, even without the Seamonster cart that lot would still have been a steal. The 2 euro pads are worth the sale price alone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nofrills100 #10 Posted December 11, 2009 (edited) Matches the PAL label on the AA database... then again the ntsc is much the same isn't it.... Edited December 11, 2009 by nofrills100 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dino #11 Posted December 11, 2009 Matches the PAL label on the AA database... then again the ntsc is much the same isn't it.... The french label is NTSC. The PAL version is english only. Look at atarimania for the difference Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nofrills100 #12 Posted December 11, 2009 (edited) Matches the PAL label on the AA database... then again the ntsc is much the same isn't it.... The french label is NTSC. The PAL version is english only. Look at atarimania for the difference yeah you're right... Ironic then that the NTSC is bi-lingual, and the PAL is just in english. Either way they are both rare by the looks of it. Edited December 11, 2009 by nofrills100 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rom Hunter #13 Posted December 11, 2009 Ironic then that the NTSC is bi-lingual Canada. BTW: the PAL version is even rarer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+RandomPerson #14 Posted December 11, 2009 Ironic then that the NTSC is bi-lingual Canada. BTW: the PAL version is even rarer. Another fine example of supply and demand. Lower supply of the PAL maybe, but higher demand for a nearly as rare NTSC version. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
