We really don't scan manuals here.  My suggestion would be to purchase it, scan it, then return it, to be honest.

i would, but the seller doesnt accept returns, and i am trying to avoid spending $70 to get it, but i think at this point, its inevitable....

Please, don't be that kind of asshole.

When you abuse eBay's "Money Back Guarantee", the seller is forced to refund ALL the money, including shipping cost. Here in Europe you even have to pay an additional €19 "managing fee" to eBay.

This dick move could cost the seller up to 40 bucks, depending on the shipping cost and region. So don't do that.

Look at "sold" auctions and see what/ how often the game sells for that price. Buy it, do your thing, then resell it.

No need to be an asshole at all.  Throw $10 into the box and say thank you lol?  If it costs $40, throw in $50 as a thanks ($40 out of $70 is some Hell of shipping fees!).  Half the time I contact people and they are fine with it once I let them know why I am looking for the box and trying to preserve it on the internet for others to grab for free.  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Hell, I've even gotten scans from sellers themselves after I have explained who I was and what I was trying to do and they didn't need to ship it to me.  There's always options.  But again, as a last resort, you can always buy it and return it.

Also for OP, please don't mind PX0, he legit hates me.  Must have slept with his wife/mother or something in the past ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ bwahaha

True dick move in this case is not allowing returns, but hey, keep yelling at those who are in your face lol.  I was just pointing out that "you can still return items even if they don't accept them, eBay has a 30-day guarantee policy that overrides any sellers choices.".  So even when it looks like you can't return an item, you most likely always can. 

The ultimate dick move (now that you got me thinking) would be receive the item, scan it, BEND it, say that it arrived damaged, then start the return process.  That way, the seller is then out $40 in fees and will receive a damaged item in return that they can no longer sell ;D

Someone should also get We're Back for Game Boy. It's American reskinned version of the same game. Only $10 with manual.

We're Back SNES version is not the same game as Radical Rex, however.

Sounds like you are plugging one of your eBay links 😂

Back to ebay though and the manual for $70, I'm only seeing the German manual, so the ones for sale wouldn't be in English :-\

Haha, no. My name on ebay is striderzero. Just thinking that someone should scan We're Back for preservation. I don't even have a scanner right now (did you scan that dang Game Saver yet buddy???). Maybe the English Baby T-Rex manual can be recreated with a combo of We're Back and the German manual.

I'm picking up what you are putting down.  Didn't realize that Baby T-Rex was a PAL game to begin with.  Frankenstein the two sources together to make an English alteration of Baby T-Rex (trex photos with we're back's wording).  I like...

(did you scan that dang Game Saver yet buddy???)

Don't hate me lol!  please see this post from yesterday.  Slowly getting things cleaned up here, and scanning is on the project list of things to do while properly putting things away!!  😬

I have called you out on your bullshit a couple of times, that is true. I also don't like a lot of what you do here, yeah.

It does not make me wrong though.

Try justifying your stupid advice all you want. I am sure, you did not entice people to commit fraud on purpose. You just did not think about it, as usual...

Yup, though there may be an English version of T-Rex, since I saw a video in English of gameplay. Here's the 4 versions (much like some of the Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle games):



On the YouTube videos I saw, all were English except Bamse.

Oh and the Gave Saver, haha I get it. I'm in the same boat. I have like 70,000 projects I'm working on at any given moment. None ever get finished.

Speaking of eBay, this just came in the mail.













Damn straight I am returning this.  What the actual flip.
