    Yeah, like the really poor quality plastic used to mold the MD cartridges I bought. I still didn't care and gave good feedback because I only really wanted the PCBs anyway.

    I believe I know the seller that Yakumo used.

    That is really nice, is there a way to get plastic cases without taking apart another game. That would be nice, someone making replacement cases for the megadrive and genesis carts. The guy has a good list of games I think I'll be buying some.

    Ya those cartridge cases are pretty standard. Usually sellers (if they know you) will throw in extras with a bulk order since they know a percentage of them will just bust on shipping with no need on your end to do anything. It's pretty weak plastic for sure.

    Aliexpress is really like dealing with eBay or anything like that, the quality of the sellers and the quality of the products themselves vary wildly, so take care and make sure you know what you're getting!

    Hey guys

    Thank you for the links. Will be a while for myself though as we had 2 real estate people come through recently and our house is worth more than i thought (even allowing of their "don't let the truth get in the way of a good yarn"). So all my retro stuff is getting packed up and into storage to "de-clutter".
