Just out of curiosity, how many people have purchased something only because they saw it in this thread? Im probably up to 10 or so purchases directly becuase of these threads.

Lollipop was brand new, Shadows is used. Also, the seller didn't say it was PAL (and the picture on the auction was fake)... but it's region free, luckily :p

Also, "bad iPhone 3GS camera is bad" or something
 
No, I wasn't. Do you have a source? I wouldn't mind getting my money back, since I bought a boxless copy out of mistake.

The authentic carts have the AGB-****-USA in the lower right corner and the nintendo seal of quality in the same corner.

In addition it does not have Roy on the cover, just the fire emblem logo.

Like this? Is it possible that there are several different versions of the cart? If I'm going to accuse someone of fraud I need to have a good source to point at.

Beautiful, one of my favourite instruments, how long have you been playing? I've wanted to learn how to play Cello for years, recently been temped to pick to an electric one to start practising on.
Not long at all. I already own another one with better sound. This is a light and cheap, but full-sized, learning cello that I'm going to use when I'm taking classes. At first I was considering getting an electric one, but random comments on the internet convinced me to get an acoustic instrument.

That is the correct label. If it is missing the AGB-***-USA it is definitely a fake. Another way to check is reflect light off the label and see if a number appears in the right side of the label. If the number appears it is legit.

one last check is to look at the circuit board where the connectors are. If it is a Legit copy it should say "Nintendo" down there.

Licorice-flavoured booze?
I hate all of you because I'm poor.

As am I but no need to hate, much can be learnt through 'forced' abstention, many things we indulge in is just a purchased distraction from ourselves anyway, and short lived one at that.

Well, at least it's a good fake. There are no stamped numbers on the label, but the circuit board does say "Nintendo".

I got it from a third-party seller on Amazon. Should I complain to them directly or contact Amazon's general customer service?

Not really much gaming related thus far. But I will share!

This was a stupid preorder that I forgot to cancel. So now I have this thing.

photo1.jpg

Speaking of Dark Knight Rises. I decided to pick up a bottle of the stuff Alfred was talking about having at that cafe.

photo4-1.jpg

A couple of choice items for pumpkin season, and a couple of surprises that I stumbled across while shopping. All fantastic so far.

photo5.jpg

Finally found some series 8 minifigs, and my groping technique worked out! got 4 out of 5 correct!

Found this badboy in Target last night back in the Halloween section.

And the one gaming thing I picked up. Some monies to throw some old PSN stuff on my Vita.

O'Fallon Brewery Pumpkin beer is good, but their chocolate beer they serve in St. Louis is godly.

Excellent alcohol choices!

Zipped covered most of the points, but you can also tell because the Nintendo and ERSB logos are off (the E is too small), the seal of quality logo lacks clarity, the corners of the label are too rounded and even from the photo you can tell the print quality is below average with incorrect colours.

You should complain to the seller directly to start with, chances are they'll give you a refund so you'll keep quiet, if they deny it is a fake and refuse to issue a full refund then you have the perfect story to tell Amazon.

Thanks!

I do love their Cherry Chocolate and their Wheach. O'Fallon is some great stuff!

Yeah that's a rough swallow there. Dry and medicinal. I've found some cocktails said to work with it well so I think my next course of action is to give those a try.

Your copy is an obvious fake, the Nintendo and ESRB logo are odd and no AGB number. The second pic you posted looks more like it, but I can´t tell if it´s actually a white background (which would make it a fake) or a map like in the original cart. I would try to get a refund.

pickups for September so far,



Espgaluda II and Dodonpachi for Android on my Galaxy S3



New games, I've somehow gone this long having never played a Metal Gear Solid game, that is going to change.



Did a little used vinyl shopping, and also happened across the Mega Man 6 cart hanging out on the shelf, I had to get it.



New cartridge for my Rega Planar 2 table, and a stylus force gauge to set it up, since the cheap digital one I had seems to be broken.



And I picked up a fresh bottle of my favorite go to scotch on the way home from work tonight, very nice
