*blows off angry steam*

Okay, so I just lost two auctions on eBay and I can't seem to find a way to get Minish Cap (With instruction booklet, please) for $15-20 in any way, shape or form.

Can anyone help me?

I'm pretty close to finishing the game. It has a crumply box but comes with the booklet. Have anything to trade for it?

Your experience depends on the seller. As with everything in life there are reliable ones and dishonerable ones. In my 50 or so ebay transactions I've only been screwed over one time, so I'm inclined to believe most sellers are trustworthy. Just read the sellers's feedback and pay especially careful attention to any negative feedback they have when bidding.

also, only transactions worth at least $25(without shipping) are covered for reimbursement if something goes wrong with your deal. I was pretty pissed to learn that when my one bad transaction came to $24. So watch out for such carefully priced merchandise. :/

What do I have to trade for it? Hmmmm... well... I have some games I don't play anymore.

Castlevania: Circle of the Moon
The Lord of the Rings: Two Towers
The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.

All of them are GBA. Believe or not, those two LotR games are quite good.

As for money, well, you'll need to wait until about the 10th-13th before I have enough money.

I know its pretty unlikely it will still be there but If you havent already tried i guess its worth a try looking for yourself if you have a K-Mart anywhere near you.

There's always a ton of bootleg GBA games on ebay, so that's something to be wary of too.

I think this seller was brought up before in the GBA/DS forum concerning bootlegs because this part looks very familiar:

It is used/rebuilt from parts, but works well. send back for refund if U want

If you're buying GBA games on ebay you should only be buying ones that have an actual picture of the cart, not just a stock box photo like that. Also do some google searches for "ways to spot GBA bootlegs."
