Multicarts

[Peps1ru1es92]

Well, I could've sworn I saw a multicart thread on here, but I went back to page 14 and didn't find it.

Anyway, I just won this multicart off ebay for 15 bucks.





And I was wondering what other multicarts you guys have. I've seen some on ebay, but they usually get yanked or go for extreme prices.

Yeah, I saw that one. It doesn't seem interesting enough for $15 in my opinion, but tell us if it has anything cool when it arrives.

I have some crappy mario 4 in 1 cart and a Super Joy III system, but that's about it.

I have a few good multicarts. My fav is my 6 in 1 with a bunch of pokemon games on it. I have some pics on my flickr. I too have been outbid on many cool multicarts

Yeah, well I figured that it wasn't bad being that it was free shipping. And will do.

Well, sorry for double postin, but paypal sent an email saying ebay yanked it. but (to my knowledge) the guy got paid.

Damn internet communists.

Send the seller a message. He/she will probably do the transaction outside of ebay. 

[Peps1ru1es92]

Yeah, I sent an email. I'm hoping for the best.

That sucks, I hope you get your cartridge.

[Nightstar699]

Why the hell would they take it off the site?

[nintendodork]

Uhh...they always do that.  Idiots report pirated cartridges (or eBay finds them) because they actually think that they're so illegal, they just can't possibly be sold to the public.  It's really stupid.

I think (as far as eBay's policy is concerned) it's more about protecting the buyers.  In the case of many GBA games, the pirate cartridges are virtually indistinguishable from the real thing.  They're suspecting that people are trying to sell pirated carts as if they were real, thus lying to the buyer and ripping them off.

When someone tries to sell a pirate FC cart as a "super rare, unreleased L@@K" cart, they're lying to the buyers.  It should be obvious to the buyer, but some people really don't know any better.

Other times, cheap FC pirates are advertised as cheap FC pirates (and priced accordingly).  Unfortunately, these carts usually get detected as the former.  They're still technically against the rule, but eBay's missing the point of the rule when they delist them.

Hmm. But I would think the average person in America buying a famicom "999999 in 1" would know that its pirated. I wish ebay wasn't the only place to safely buy this stuff online. 

[nintendodork]

Well, it's not.  It's the just the easiest, most convenient place...in the U.S

I was watching this very nice rockman 6 in 1 cart but it got removed. It was very disappointing...

Well, it's not.  It's the just the easiest, most convenient place...in the U.S

And the most trusted, although if a site supports paypal payments it helps put my mind at ease...

[Nightstar699]

Yea,on ebay they also charge alot for pirates. Just up kombat famicom, or street fighter famicom. 50 to 100 dolars. I use to think that was worth it, but from what i hear, theyre not as rare as i thought.
