yam yam gold surfaced

I think letter in the auction is quite different because the spacing and aliments of characters seem not to match in places. I try highlighting them by red boxes, but also in the green box the Mandarake letter has spaces were the auction one doesn't.

 

yeah..my halfblind granma would see the differences.

where did yo get the one and other copy of that letter?

 

better pics for the best fake

The letter looks pretty identical to the one from Mandarake to me, the cart doesn't show any signs of a paint job too. Is it for sure that YamYam is still at Mandarake (now) or is it just an assumption?

 

That is a lot of yams

 

This picture of the letter looks real to me. But I don't understand because it seems different to the one he used in the auction.

I think finding if Mandarake did or didn't sell it for sure will really, really help.

 

this is not looking like a custom paintjob

 

assumed it is the one from mandarake, so who the hell would like to sell that super collectors gem over ebay for some peanuts?

 

With that pointed out it kinda looks fake but I would have no idea.

 

This is why I sold my Gold NWC. I don't to have to deal with crap like this.

 

two things

1) the letter I have looks VERY similar to the one from mandarake, but in the auction you can see that the letter offered is biggger than the one he sent me

2) the paint is also missing where the cartridge contacts are located

one more sospicious thing, he was offering a rockman 4, then he told he sold it and now he has another one for sale, that means he had by hands two gold rockman 4 in about a month, little strange

BUT, he's offering also the 3 sfc sample rom and the v-jump chrono trigger, those would be a lot harder to fake and not worth the effort
he also own the gundam silver cart with box
I asked to him for a kinnikuman gold, he said that he own it but that don't want to sell it, why refusing such a rich opportunity of selling an expensive fake?
so he's selling half fake and half real stuff?

I'm quite confused

 

It´s easy with Rockman to see if it´s a fake or not : the manual and the soft are different from the release version (each 8 versions are differents).

 

I think that was kinnikuman

 

But the sticker is NOTHING special.
It is the VERY SAME than the 500Y retail release.

 

My gold carts don't have that kind of "retail screws".
They have tiny crosses in them (Kunio Dodgeball Gold Cart for example).

Jhonny,what is find TOO STRANGE is that the only rare games he has to offer for sale are GOLD CARTS.
Meaning ones easy to fake by gold painting them.
Strangely he doens't offer Kunio Dodgeball Gold Cart because it has a completely different sticker,and probably he wouldn't be able to fake it.

 

interesting, so gold carts don't have regular screws?

 

he's offering also chrono trigger v-jump and sfc sample roms

not uber rare but quite rare, and not easy to fake as gold items

 

Is it just a co-incidence that the seller's other ebay auctions are mainly for "gold plated fashion jewelry"?
