I never did order I just emailed him you can order a kit state side from Rose colored gaming

but to me there a little over priced I guess part of it goes to his super pretty packaging, which I could give to shakes about put it in a good bubble folder and I'm happy its not like he manufactured them he just ordered a bulk and designed super nice vector packaging

It looks like he lower his prices I guess $65 is not too bad for the screen kit but its still cheaper to order it directly

Just want to clarify why my price is what it is.

1) I offer a 30-day warranty
2) I also include components to add a 2-way brightness switch with the kit
3) I spent the time to make a clear, English instruction manual to go along with these kits
4) And yes, I offer retail packaging.  I know that doesn't add value for everyone, but that's a big part of what my brand is about; selling products and services that add the extra level of detail in an attempt to recreate the days of yesteryear when game cart came in big boxes, with color manuals, and were tucked into baggies, etc.  I'm trying to re-create/emulate that, and for a lot of folks it seems to be major area of interest in what I do  ;D


That said, Zerey's price is ~60.00 shipped, and mine is 65.00.   Zerey is great guy and I in no way mean to take sales away from him.  He's my supplier after all.  We offer the same product, but to different customers  ;)

Anywho, game on!

What specifically would you like to see pics of? Completed modded GBAs?

Good to see you on here wiggy sorry if my post came across as dick-ish do you frequent any other forums besides cover P. I wondered why you had not expanded to other forums but I guess those guys over there kept you busy enough with sales

wiggyx, do you still have GBA light kits for sale? I have a GBA with a 40-pin screen. Can I buy it from you?

Thanks!

Wiggy I'm definitely going to have to order some of your GBA Micro faceplates and buttons!!

No worries.  I didn't take it that way at all.  Everyone has their opinion about pricing and what an item is worth.  I just wanted to clarify why my price is what it is, nothing more ;)

I'm on Digipress, Cheap Ass Gamer, Assembler, Racketboy, GBAtemp, benheck, and obviously TCP like you mentioned as well.  I'm registered on about a zillion other forums, but those are the only that I post on with any regularity.

Sounds good!  New faceplates should be in very soon :)

Thanks!  I'm hoping to offer the custom SNES mini on a built-to-order basis very soon...
