Some one is also selling a Pirate DS multicart by you.
http://london.craigslist.co.uk/vgd/3693355565.html

I have one of those and like it pretty well. It's nice being able to access all of the games from one cart. Is that wrong?

Yes and no, mostly yes though.

It's not even about owning one of the flash carts that I find annoying about those ads it's the fact that they sell fill it up with pirated games.  Buying it to use for personal use is one thing but buying it then filling it up with games and trying to sell it for some huge profit is another.

It's like this one guy around me that offers a 2tb hdd filled with about 100-300 ps3/wii or xbox 360 games for $200 bucks.

I would seriously buy if I could get it home:

I would immediately buy that, I don't care if I had to drag it home walking. But alas, I live in in S.FL

Ditto!  That sort of thing is the reason to own a shitty $2K pickup truck.

My only beef with CL is that my area hardly ever has anything I'm after. For example, one game I really want is "Super Double Dragon", and I haven't seen many on there at all. Usually, its part of a bundle, and they don't want to sell it separately. :(

Buy bundle, sell rest of lot.  I think that's what a lot of us end up doing.

http://kamloops.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-sell-video-games-consoles-older-generation-supr-nintendo-games-W0QQAdIdZ483869214

In my town there is this guy who makes fake ads constantly, I just dont get why.

Obviously I am going to respond, but never hold my breath.

I don't get it.  What's seemingly fake about it?

To good to be true. About once a month there will be an ad that is just incredible.

Last month it was Neo Geo AES carts for $2 a piece.

Month before that was a lot of Nes games with a sealed Stadium Events.

I'd be skeptical too. Notice the Earthbound in the top left and then there's Super Metroid, FF3, Mario RPG, MegamanX, Donkey Kong series, Actraiser, Chrono Trigger, Kirby... Half my want list is there and the other half are some of the best games I have.
