Half those games on the lost aren't out yet and won't be. Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse got dumoed when 3DO went out. I'd go with a no on this one.
It's either a scam or the seller is doing the "drop shipping " thing.
I'm guessing wholesale drop shipping because they bought several books and links to info on how to do this recently.

What's drop shipping?
"The idea behind drop shipping is quite simple. You accept orders and payment from customers for goods that you advertise on your Web site. However you don’t hold any stocks of these goods. Instead you place an order with a manufacturer (or wholesaler) who delivers the goods direct to your customer's address. Normally the paperwork accompanying the delivery will make it appear that the goods were delivered directly from your business. Your customer pays the retail priced fixed by you, while you pay the wholesale price from the supplier, thereby (hopefully) making a profit."Originally Posted by Keir to the nth power

Drop shipping is where you sell an item, collect money for it, but you don't actually have it in stock. After the sale you place an order with a wholesale company for example, who in turn will ship it to the buyer's address.
EDIT: Achika beat me to it.
Oh, thanks. I was familiar with the practice but not the term. (I suppose I could have looked it up myself )
Ooo, I had no idea there was a Carmen Sandiego game out for the GC...
Oh, and I don't think it's really all that legit. But maybe it's just a promotional offer or something.
I'll Guess I'll ask both gamegirl79 & Achika..Originally Posted by gamegirl79
Does the Drop shipping itself way of selling work out well for sellers on Ebay...?
Or is it a buyers beware..?
Also the possibility that these are japanese consoles, modified, with japanese games. That's always a nice way to get cheap games
