A WARNING TO ALL STARTING VCS CART COLLECTORS!

Post by Rom Hunter » Sun Sep 27, 2009 10:56 am

Many VCS game titles are now being sold on E-Bay as reproductions made by Randy Crihfield from Hozer Video Games:

Please know that these reproduction cartridges are NOT genuine cartridges, although they often look very similar to the original versions!

They can be recognized by the Hozer Video Games logo, a little smiling face sticking out it's tongue.

Please don't be fooled by these fake reproduction carts and don't pay more than they're really worth (which should be around $10)!

Have fun bidding!

Hozer carts were never much of an issue because they were marked with his logo and priced accordingly. There are people now selling copies that look almost identical to the originals, such as this guy:

He's selling copies of mostly rare games, prototypes, and homebrews.

Thanks for mentioning, Scott!

If there are any other sellers doing the same, please do add them to this topic.

Hate to see innocent buyers getting ripped by transactions like these.
