collectard seller's user name says it all


It like the "get 5% off when you by 2+"

Then you look at number available 1.

When did Ys III becomes expensive?  I remember paying around $20 for one MISB way back when Toys R US still carried them.  Now it seems complete used are $175?

It isn't expensive, collectard set collectors are just paying $100 - $150 for the cardboard box.

The CIC game isn't worth much to them. At least an empty cardboard box looks like a CIB game on your shelf. A CIC game on your shelf is a spotlight on your failure as an Omega level collector and all of your gallery and youtube viewers will never let you live it down.

The cardboard is the best part.

Nah. It's the styrofoam stopper in the bottom of said cardboard.

This is a brand new “Magical Chase” fan translation for Nintendo GameBoy Color. 

This game has never ben played.  It has been collecting dust on my shelf.  Its time to start selling my collection for cash.  My loss is your gain.  Perfect condition.  Rare.

It's on one of those shit fake "Game" gameboy carts too. I hate those things. Bought a Shantae repro and it came like that, wouldn't work on my gameboy advance player. Meh.

The only thing that interested me was the plastic case used for the game boy game. Anyone know where this plastic came can be obtained in bulk so I can custom case my meager GB and GB Color games?

I already use DS cases for my GBA games. I am good there.

When I bought plastic cases for my various flashcarts, I found several suppliers by "googling". I believe that the case in that auction and the one I bought for my Everdrive GB are just DS cases with a couple clips cut out.

Oh really?  It is a DS case?  Hmm the mod jobs I had seen previously to make a GB game fit in a DS case always looked like a hot mess. The shape of the case used in this pictures looked more squat then the DS cases. I will have to double check. Thank you.


I shall now call you Sir Google

Oh it's not the DS case used. Close call thought.


It's from some sort of company called "custom game case".

Seems they do a cardboard slip cover on their cases. Might be a viable option to CIB my loose GB and GBColor games.

Yeah, that's what I got. It looks like it they made the mold from a reworked DS case.
