Default Very strange....

Take a look at this ebay seller:
http://search.ebay.nl/_W0QQgotopageZ...sortpropertyZ1
He's selling brand new Game Boy games for rediculous prices ($20). And the games come without case or manual.

What do you think? I've already emailed Nintendo America about this (Nintendo Europe doesn't have something to report this to).
Look like some guy that steals games or copies them...

Most likely copying.

I also mailed Nintendo Holland. GM, mailing them would be a good idea.

The guy suddenly isn't a subscriber of ebay anymore. The latest comment on a deal is: The game came late and it's not real, it's a copy from Thailand!

Go me. *dances*

Edit:
I found another one. http://search.ebay.nl/_W0QQgotopageZ...sortpropertyZ1
I'm taking him down.

There seems to be too much GBA game pirating on Ebay... Enough for me to not buy GBA games from it...

Sometimes it's obvious (the seller location is usually Hong Kong or something like that, and is selling games for cheap), but othertimes it's not as obvious...

Just like how it's near impossible to find real Nintendo brand SNES controllers on Ebay... all people sell are cheap knockoffs (that usually comes in groups of two)...
