Title: Ebay question.
Post by: Izret101 on May 05, 2005, 01:56:16 PM
I just wanted to know what everyones thoughts were on games from Asia.

I recently saw 3 or 4 auctions listed in english for a US game but it said that the item would be shipped from Malasia, Asia or China. Those are the 3 i remember.

I personally don't trust it just because of the huge pirating that goes on over there. That and one of them had a pic and the box color looked off

Personally i think i am going to stay away from that type of stuff.

Has anyone else encountered such a thing?

I agree, I'd pass.  If you are buying Japanese games, then obviously you may have to import, but US games?

yea, any US games shipping from Asia you have to stay away from....they are almost definitely Pirated and not worth the plastic they are made on....
