Donkey kong hockey => Fake ?? was created by shadeoner
Hello all,

I found lot of Donkey Kong micro system on ebay brand new !
( search.ebay.fr/search/search.dll ... category0= )
I'm asking me if this game was really original Nintendo Game & Watch because of their low prices...

Thank you

Hello shadeoner :D .

DK Hockey is one of the most common brand new Game&Watch's available through ebay, along with Black Jack & DK 3.

IMHO, you shouldn't pay more than US$40, US$50 at an absolute max.

If you are unsure about an item on eBay, ask questions!!!! If you don't get a response from a seller, don't bid!!! It is as simple as that :D .

Cheers, The Black Wizard.

I no longer have the box. but I can generally say that I've had no problems with shippers, you may get the odd damaged box. but the last 4 shippers I've had have been perfect. maybe 3 slightly dented boxes.

ive had 3 units with manufacturer flaws from two and half shippers two with cracks in caseings and one with a glue mark across serial number yes a percentage dented or marked boxs in shippers, all this i say reduces numbers of actually 100% mint manufactured games.

I suspect what may be happening is the remaining stock is damaged etc. i.e. some wholesalers may have had 50 shippers, from a sales point of view it makes sense to place all the good stuff in 1 box and sell it on. Now that we are getting to the "end" of the BJ/DKH/DK3 shippers we may be seeing the worst of the remaining items. well thats one theory anyhow.

The first shippers I purchased would have been quite a while ago, almost 2 years.

I've asked them before as well, and even if there was I doubt you would get it, most of there employees I spoke 2 know the deal. Apparantly they do have a display cabinet with some in it but.
