(pics to follow)

 

Hey, that is really good news. I know there are a few members who have recently acquired PS2 Tools and therefore I hope that we'll see even more information, comments, posts and data on their usage. :clap:

I bought a NES five minutes ago, and i'm going to pick it up in an hour.

 

Stuff I got last month:



Chibi, Fire Emblem, Odama and DDR are sealed.

Sorry for the bad picture!

 

nice shoes!

 

Thanks! Didn't even notice my shoes where on the pic.

 

Bought a G4 titanium laptop, three saturn review copies, LocoRoco, Mac OSX Server 10.4 and a new cell phone. The three saturn games( Sega touring car championship, Manx TT,Sega worldwide Soccer 98) aren't very different from retail except touring car which acts really wierd on my system. they were part of six but I only managed to get three:-(

Laptop is without charger but I think it works( pulled it apart to put in the hinge and managed to put everything back right). Also bought battery for it but it hasn't come yet. Hopefully my server will be running soon

 

Finally replaced my loose copies of Gran Turismo, Street Fighter Zero 3 and Tekken 2, all NTSC|J. All in MINT condition. (Some boxes seems cracked, but it's the anti-dust plastic protection that's damaged)

Also got for free a PlayStation Picks demo disc, the first demo disc of the SCPH-1001 model.

The Gran Turismo 4 Sticker was a gift from PhantasyStar. Thanks a lot!

Sorry the crap picture, it was taken with my cellphone with low battery.

 

Nice buys for me today. Got a clear green n64 including all cables and came with controller and transfer pak

also picked uo ace golf on the Gamecube

 

the others were resident evil and die hard, Right?
I really wanted the RE on but the max bid was really high so I gave up
I nearly won die hard somebody outbid me with like 43 seconds

 

Indeed. Didn't care too much for Die hard and Resident Evil wasn't worth the money for me. The others I already had. They all were 100% identical to retail anyway. (afaik).

 

Resident Evil was bought by one of the member here.

I really think the guy who sold them really knew what he had in hands but he made his auctions and comments like if he knew nothing about them: as not a lot of people know about review copies, he said they are maybe proto or beta copies.
In fact, 99% of the review copies are just retail cds without the cd label. I asked the seller to give me the serials found on the inner ring (matric info) of every cds he had for sale. I never got any reply from him. With this serial, you can be 100% sure if the game is the retail one or another copy.

He just gave the serial for the RE cd on his auction. This serial is exactly the same as the retail cd, so the one who bought the RE cd just bought the RE retail cd without the label (a review copy identical to the retail version) and not a proto/beta of some sort.

I compiled all of the serials from the cds I have (and that's a lot!) and all of them are freely available in my database on the net. So for future buy, don't hesitate to ask the seller this serial and compare it with the one on my database.

For ex, in the case of the RE cd, the serial is:
MK-81092P-01812 A 12345
To check yours, the important part is:
MK-81092P-01812
If you have the same serial => you have a retail cd (or cd with exactly the same data as the retail version) and not a proto/beta.

I hope this will help some people here
