homerwannabee Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 (edited) Am I missing something here? This is a NTSC Asterix. This is super freaking rare. Yes I know the label looks like garbage, and yes I know it is from Mexico. But how on earth does this game go for $6.68 plus $10 shipping and handling?

holygrailvideogames.com Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Seller is in Mexico. Zero feedback as a seller. The label looks horrible. No guarantee that it is NTSC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elw00d Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I would have dropped $20 total on that. I could get a better cart later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Beard Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I saw that auction and was sure I'd seen that photo before, although I couldn't locate it. Add that to the low feedback and I wasn't willing to take the chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Paul Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 I hate drudging up old threads, but did this one ever get figured out? I only ask because another one from a more reputable seller has come up. No end label = almost certainly PAL, but someone else might want a chance on it.

RickHarrisMaine Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 do like the Space:1999 clip art thing he has on his auction page though..... that alone might make me put a bid down there..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian Paul Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 I hate drudging up old threads, but did this one ever get figured out? I only ask because another one from a more reputable seller has come up. No end label = almost certainly PAL, but someone else might want a chance on it. Ended up going for $36. Probably about double its value if it turns out to be PAL, so not an epic loss given the potential payout. Anyone here win it? If a end label-less PAL Asterix shows up on ebay in about a month, I guess we'll know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianoid Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Er, was Asterix NTSC really confirmed to have been sold in any quantity? AFAIK it's harder than Quadrun. Am I missing something? Did anyone ever find out if this Mexico Asterix cart was for reals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I missing something? Did anyone ever find out if this Mexico Asterix cart was for reals? This is the third Asterix I have seen come from Mexico. Since Mexico is NTSC, I am pretty sure it's NTSC.

Didn't Rick Wies buy a CIB one from Mexico? He might be able to confirm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
