FS: Chinese (pirate & original) Famicom stuff

[sumguy]

hmmm...odd that they wouldn't even bargain with a foreigner.  They are experts at overpricing 3 or 4 times the original price in tourist cities, but they'd usually go down quite a bit.  Guess if they know the next tourist is going to pay that much, its not even worth going down.  They always gave me the local price for stuff where I lived (small city in Heilongjiang) so it depends on where you go.

List of stuff added. Giving this a bump.

I'm confused, how come you're in China but shipping is in the US?

[nothing02]

Ah well... I'm gonna be back in the US for the holidays, so I'm taking 7 games back with me. In the future, I will be shipping from China.

Nevermind about finding Kirby. Think I can handle it myself from here

Prices reduced due to lack of interest so far. Buy buy buy!! Hehehe. Seriously, I can get a lot more stuff, so it's important to me to find a price point where I can make money and people will buy this stuff.

All these multi-carts people seem to be selling are of rather low condition. Does anyone plan to stock new multi-carts?

[Bramsworth]

Most interesting multi carts out there are usually older, just the way it is. Newer ones don't always have many of the old hacks and originals that people are looking for. So it's sort of inevitable to come across a lot of carts that are aged.

Yeah, I found some interesting stuff on new muticarts--problem is (in Taiwan at least) they were selling them for $9, $12, $15+ each at a night market...nice to get a couple you want, but certainly not worth buying to resell.

Just a tip, Taiwan's not the place to go for these.  Stores don't have them.  Only that one seller at a night market in Taipei had them and she wasn't budging on those prices.  Flea markets in that city weren't good either.  The one exception (besides online) is the flea market in Kaohsiung (south Taiwan).  It's huge and awesome, so go there if your traveling in Taiwan.

Multi-carts are an intresting breed. Unless you have them in great condition with super popular titles, or you have a super rare varient, it's not really worth while.

I've started making inquiries and might try to dab into multi-carts a little bit to see, but it would only be items as mentioned above. Regular run of the mill carts arn't really worth the time.

[nothing02]

I'm guessing maybe the JY stuff isn't from mainland China because I've never seen any of those. I can get new multicarts too (actually two of the ones I posted are new), but like Bramsworth said, the coolest stuff is usually only on old carts.

[sumguy]

I've been wondering if Taiwan made the JYs while there was still a market for them.  All the ones I've seen are in traditional Chinese rather than simplified that China uses.

Thanks for the info on the Taiwanese market. I probably won't be going there anytime soon but it's good to know.
