*NOTES AND CAVEATS
- These are used, pre-owned, vintage item(s). Small imperfections and defects not visible in the pictures may be present. I do my best to provide a wide range of high-quality photos from different angles, but if you would like additional photos of anything, please ask before purchasing!
- Overlays, cartridge labels, and game boxes described as "new" or "brand-new" are usually reproductions or custom-made (exceptions include "new-old-stock" [NOS] and warehouse finds). When I am aware that a particular item is not an original vintage/antique item, I will indicate this in the listing. Reproduction and custom overlays, labels, boxes, etc. are available from multiple sources online.
- Some of the more valuable items I sell will ship with plastic protective cases; I will indicate this in the listing if a case is included. I ship overlays inside of archive-quality protective sleeves and firm-plastic top loaders (the kind used for baseball cards).
- I clean the contacts of every cartridge I sell with a 91% isopropyl alcohol followed by a deoxidizing agent (e.g., DeOxit D5) to remove built-up oxides and sulfides that prevent good contact.
- I test every cartridge I sell on an original stock video game console.
- If the game is working, I will indicate this and provide a photo of an in-game screenshot taken during the test; if it is not working despite my best efforts, I will likewise indicate this. Any diagonal lines or excessive pixelation visible on the screen of the television I used for testing are artifacts only. This is due to a mismatch between the CRT's refresh rate and my camera phone's exposure settings. Please bear in mind that most of the games I sell are 30 or 40 years old and may stop working at any time!
- USPS Ground Advantage was formerly called First Class.
- All game boxes will ship inside of a sturdy cardboard box.
- I will ship using alternate carriers upon request, provided tracking is available. No media mail.
- The eBay International Shipping Program assesses additional international shipping charges (on top of domestic shipping charges to the regional hub) that I cannot control or reduce. Please be aware of this when buying internationally.
- I am happy to combine purchases of multiple listings into one shipment to reduce shipping costs. If you wish to do this, please communicate this to me prior to paying for your items, and we can discuss the best way to make this happen. I will not automatically refund excess shipping charges.
- Need something I don't have listed? Send me a message - I may have it. Thanks for looking!
