    Hi there folks, I'm after a working Gamecube Broadband Adapter, does not necessarily need to be boxed or in blister, loose is okay as well.

    I need to get it quick as I'll be hosting a Mario Kart: Double Dash LAN tournament soon and need one more adapter.

    Payment will be via PayPal, and shipping will be to:

    Montevideo, MVD 11200
    Uruguay


    Thanks in advance!

    I can loan you one mate and get it shipped out tomorrow but I would need it back (I need all the ones I have).

    Just an option if you don't manage to sort anything.

    Drop me a PM if you need my help!

    The first one only ships within Germany, though I've been following the second one for a couple of days here:

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAP...3176553&category=171814&_trksid=p5197.c0.m619

    I tried contacting the seller as it looks an awful lot like the modem instead of the BBA, but can't quite make sure of it unless he/she replies (which has not happened).

    Thing is all the ones I found on eBay or other sites are either extremeley expensive or have some kind of issue with shipping internationally (or sometimes come bundled with other items).

    I have a ton of other expenses related to this tournament, which is to be held at an anime expo and can't spend too much money on the BBA. I sent a PM to kiff so hopefully he can save my butt on this one by lending me one of his BBA's :pray:

    It's a modem, GC BBA's have a kinda holographic/shiny label to them ( I'll try to take a pic when I can )

    That and the cable included is a regular phone line...

    Hope that helps...

    Yup that's what I thought.

    I actually wondered because of those 2 things, I've seen my BBA has a shiny/holo label, and that cable from the pic looked an awful lot like an RJ-11.

    Thanks for double checking for me :)

    You can still buy them new from nintendo for cheap in the US. I got one not too long ago.

    EDIT: Nevermind, I checked and they don't sell them any more :(.

    BUMP!

    Still looking for this :(

    I need to get it here before 18th February, so now shipping would be via FedEx/DHL I guess.

    Searched for a few on eBay but none do international shipping.

    Sorry for the lack of response to your PM, email and this thread but I have been mega busy lately!

    I actually posted one out to you the day after you originally PM'ed me and now I am quite concerned that it hasn't yet arrived... must be over a week ago?!

    I will dig the tracking code out in the morning and shoot it over to you mate

    Oh! No prob mate, sorry to have bothered you on your e-mail, I guessed you were busy, just wasn't sure if you got my PM.

    I believe it was last week yes, so if you posted it a couple of days ago it is still right on time, postal service during this holiday season usually gets everything a bit delayed.

    Thanks again for saving my butt, I owe you one :thumbsup:

    BTW, shoot me a PM whenever you can with the shipping price so I can pay you back.
