Unfortunately, I have not had a good experience with this seller.

noobish hat was selling a PCE Duo R + 13 games for £300. (He has since deleted this post).

I contacted him and he told me it was available. I arranged to pick up, he agreed and gave me his address. Just before I was due to pick it up he contacted me and told me one of the games was missing...slightly strange as he had taken photos but chose to not look in the box.

Anyway, he told me it was somewhere in the house but would take “forever” to find. I told him I would hold off coming to collect so he could look for it and he told me he would.

I heard nothing for 3 days.

Then on a PC Engine Facebook group, of which I’m a part, another forum member (who will rename nameless for now) posted his “new purchase” a PCE Duo R + 13 games for £300. The exact same games as in noobish hat’s set (including the “missing” game).

Coincidence?

The best I can assume is that noobish hat chose to lie to me about losing the game in order to put me off and sell the set to another forum member.

Pretty underhanded thing to do IMO and I won’t be trading with this user in the future.

Nope. I really couldn't find the cart, and I realised I'm most likely never going to be able to find it (my collection is split up in Taiwan, my house, my mum's house, and my dad's house, and the cart is the size of a credit card). The other forum member told me owns a loose cart anyway and the case/manual would be good enough, whereas you told me you were only interested in the complete thing. Maybe I should have kept you in the loop, but honestly, I've got a lot on my plate atm, so sorry about that. I am not a liar at any rate.

Sounds like a definite case of miscommunication.
