I'm not sure if I've mentioned this but when I came back from China, some of my shipping boxes were confiscated. These boxes contained my entire PSP and Virtual Boy collection, including some rarities such as Space Squash, Jack Bros, and Innsmouth no Yakata. No, I didn't just get them back, but I did just buy Vertical Force so I can finally play some more VB, and I do love my VB (the mint condition box of which was crushed to all hell by the demented Chinese authorities on its way INTO China). The moral of the story is don't go to China.

I bought a VB with six games in a Hard Off in Chiba in 2005 for 6500 Y, never played it, and sold it for $350 in 2011.
That poor VB was completely wasted on me.
On the bright side, I found ICO/Shadow of the Colossus HD today for $4.44.
And a box of Cocoa Puffs in Canada for a limited time for $2.80. And the big 2L Ito-En Koi Aji tea bottle for $5.28. =)
Too bad Ito-En bottled teas here are now made in Taiwan, but still retain their ridiculous prices. They're usually $7.xxLast edited by usman; 06-10-2015, 19:08.

The tablet I bought from a Craigslist guy wouldn't sync over USB. It would only charge. He mentioned this in the listing but said it was the cable. I bought a new cable and found it did the same thing so he very graciously offered me a full refund and also gave permission for me to open it up, determine the cause(in fact, he thanked me for offering to open it) and try repairing it with no strings attached.
I discovered the dock connector pins had mostly come away from the board and the only reason it charged was because those pins were intact. The pins for USB host were out, as well as A/V out and fast charging, which explained why it would take yonks to charge.
I saw today that he's relisted it. I wanted to see if he'd stick to the dodgy cable theory but he's updated the description to say a friend opened it and found the connector is faulty

Those are stupid rare, I've only ever seen one copy of each in the real world. Vertical Force is nothing to Red Alarm in my opinion.
