I just got a DS lite at a yard sale; are the ultracheap Hori screen protectors on eBay any good?
(for example: http://cgi.ebay.com/NDSL-Hori-Screen-Guard-Protector-For-Nintendo-DSL-NDSL_W0QQitemZ190288447340QQcmdZViewItemQQptZVideo _Games_Accessories?hash=item2c4e13476c&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A15%7C66%3A2%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7 C301%3A1%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50 )

I've had a Hori screen protector on my DSL since day one and it's been perfect. It (the screen protector) got really messed up after years of use but I just cleaned it (50% rubbing alcohol & 50% distilled water mix- dab with a cloth and wipe screen) and it looks brand new again.

But the only thing I wonder is if those ones on eBay are fakes...

I don't trust any kind of screen protectors. They always muddy up the screen.

I've had a lot of luck with the Hori myself (purchased from a fellow CAG actually).

To be clear, I'm looking for a Hori protector, or equivalent quality, but because it's a Japanese company, most of my fake detection abilities aren't working.

Just buy from a legit site like play asia or amazon

I was hoping that there was a cheaper place around. I ended up sending a PM to brianmoy. (That's the same seller as Splatoon used.)

Buy it from Amazon. $6.99 & eligible for FSSS. If you pay any less that, you've just been sold a fake. If you want a fake, you can buy it from Dealextreme.com for about $1.27 shipped. (I've got a fake on mine, had it for almost 2 years, but the quality might be different than the ones they used to sell/make)
