    I got a bunch of pokemon cards and a pokemon plush for $6 because it was mispelled as "pokeon." This is why it's important for people to check their spelling when making a listing.

    I keep getting double items from aliexpress.

    Nothing too crazy, but last few times I've ordered lasers - I get one in the post, then a few days or a week later another turns up. It's almost like they have not kept records of what's shipped or something. But this has been with multiple sellers.

    Bought a Japanese Gamecube on Ebay when I noticed that it had the broadband adapter installed on it.

    I keep hoping I'll find a Dreamcast like that.

    Oh man, and everyone seems to think that taking a picture of the sticker on the bottom of a DC is important. If there's more than one picture, it has the sticker for some godawful reason.

    Actually taking a photo of the sticker of the bottom of the DC can prove to be quite useful. This way you can check if it's compatible with GDEMU and also for the more specialized buyer it's a handy tool to check if it's a preferable model.

    Yes, you can tell what motherboard is in the console from the bottom sticker. Saves me asking if I am looking for a VA0
