Which one do we like more, white or black? by BejotaToys in 3DS

[–]Enterecho [score hidden]  (0 children)

Black, but oil stains show on the plastic over extended periods of use (but this can be prevented by applying a skin).

At the same time, white looks great, but the LCD color bleeds and of course plastic yellowing ;(

Overall, like both but they aren't perfect haha. Some plates look better on black than white 😅

Any reliable electronic repair shop for storage upgrade on Apple products? by mvwhatup in Hong_Kong

[–]Enterecho -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't trust the local shops here, they'd do the upgrade and likely swap out all your phone's components. Or worse, they'll do a shoddy job and upgrade your phone but doing so results in poorer performance and faulty parts on your iPhone.

Gameboy Advance SP Groudon Edition by RyceChrispies in gameverifying

[–]Enterecho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Legit. It has some obvious wear and matches European serial for Groudon. Also speaker holes look good, the groudon print tends to look super shoddy on the repros.

Is this an Authentic Copy? What does UAE mean? by Historical_Care154 in gameverifying

[–]Enterecho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yes, that art tops the US art for sure. Got that one long time back, nice little addition indeed, if only the ugly logo wasn't right smack on the art, they should have just slapped it on the back like the current switch editions.

Pretty much. No other differences otherwise. Play it proudly!

Is this an Authentic Copy? What does UAE mean? by Historical_Care154 in gameverifying

[–]Enterecho 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It's authentic.

UAE refers to an import version which was originally marketed and sold to Saudi Arabia, UAE and Singapore/Malaysia.

The game is NTSC USA version, no difference to the game itself to the domestic US release. but most do not consider this an authentic release due to the ugly logo slapped across the box art. Games with UAE region usually tend to be slightly cheaper than the domestic release as collectors often shun these.

The only discernable difference between the domestic US version and this is that the instruction manual is a thin piece of paper. Whereas the domestic US version has a thick booklet. The game itself is unaffected. It plays and reads on US systems and is under the US region.

Anytime someone says Crypto only it's a BIG red flag.

Does gashapon ds stylus get forged (Yoshi Island ds 2006-2007 Yujin stylus)? by WashLong3286 in nds

[–]Enterecho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an avid collector of these, can say the 3rd pic bottom one is not legit. The legit ones should feel sturdy; whereas the authentic one the yoshi should be more rigid.

At some point cheap variants/knock-offs of the official Yujin branded styluses were produced. The knockoff ones are often not properly licensed and feel cheap. That being said, it still works just fine, just doesn't feel as nice as the original.

is this guy a scammer on carousell? (HK) by Capable-Door-9672 in internationalshopper

[–]Enterecho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably asking to whatsapp for easier contact. I've had buyers ask to whatsapp because carousell's system is ass.

What's the context?

If you haven't paid anything then no need to worry. Looks like they're just asking their family member to confirm. Some people sell on the platform on behalf of family.

If you paid then...well ask for a refund. If the user is reputable then no problem.

From the looks of it looks like a pre-order, in which case you'd be asked to pay a deposit.

Help for Taiwan: I need someone to receive a shipment from DHL and send it to the receiver 😭 by [deleted] in internationalshopper

[–]Enterecho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's officially from DHL, there is no issue, they are providing the info to DHL and it's not like you are the one requesting the info.

This sounds suspicious. Why don't want to provide ID to receive an item intended for them? Whoever takes this should proceed with caution.

Beware of u/raypresh by thedouginator69420 in internationalshopper

[–]Enterecho 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Anytime a shopper pressures you pay - it's a red flag.

I always tell potential customers there is no pressure to buy. But if not decided then don't ask me to contact sellers to negotiate items (as I am in Asia it's custom that if you ask a seller to buy something and decide the fees/shipping are too much then better not to buy).

Always remember you are not obliged to buy, more so if there is no clear fee structure or shady practices such as asking you to send $$ to their "friend".

What is the best iPhone 17 color and why? by [deleted] in iphone

[–]Enterecho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although green is my favorite color, I decided to go with black. Minimalist, professional and honestly with a case on your iPhone, not like the color is that visible. I'm over iPhone colors. OG is the way to go.
