high voltage Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) http://www.ebay.de/itm/Atari-2600-Halloween-absolute-Raritat-guter-Zustand-/141725734959?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_77&hash=item20ff83182f eBay Auction -- Item Number: 141725734959 If I'm not mistaken, the cartridge never had a wrap-around label, it was always two, front and spine, and it was more matt looking. Seller mentions instructions is a copy, but the cart just looks wrong and also to new/shiny. Edited August 8, 2015 by high voltage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philflound Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Think you should inform him it is a repro. Can't read what he wrote, but if you're asking, he must not have mentioned it. Then if he doesn't change the description, report the item to ebay saying it's a repro. Phil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If listing does not say repro ebay will not remove it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil I told the seller, he said "Thank you" (In the auction, seller doesn't mention it's a repro, but he says game will increase in value. It also says he lost the original box years ago. He does say that the manual is a copy of the original) Edited August 14, 2015 by high voltage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philflound Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I don't know if it's illegal to sell a reproduction on Ebay, or at least against their policy. I guess you can always say it's a re-issue. Reprint comics and reproduction trading cards are always sold, though they usually are official from companies. Well, if they aren't supposed to be selling those games, then I say let the listings get taken down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
