Hello, i am roezers! I collect master system games for 2 months now. I am from the netherlands and bought 3 lots of SMS games from dutch and belgium sites. I have around 80 games now, but now no new lots apear on these sites . I started collection because of my history with SMS, when i was little i used to play it, but my parents didn't allow me to buy much games, only had 5 games inc alex build in, so now i am making up for my traumatised youth j/k. I join this forum cause i read a lot of intresting and funny stuff, the story about the teddy boy gay bar made me laugh I am also hoping to find some information about shipping and how to minimise these costs, cause i have never bought from ebay yet and i don't know how you guys do this, if you see 1 good game for say 5$ it costs like 10$ to ship right? that's no good. Also i read about brazillian friends who buy for you then send in 1 pack, i would like this friend too some time Also, ruperts collection made me horny and molest myself (j/k ), though I don't think i'll have as much as him after 1 year Here a pic of my collection, kinda crappy quality, cause i took it with my qtek also this isn't my complete collection, some games are still at my friends house where we used to game

welcome to the forum. i'm pleased my collection turned you on regarding games on ebay - some sellers over charge for shipping overseas, I dont really understand why though It makes more sence to buy bulk lots off ebay if you still need lots of games, buying a job lot of 40 games for $80 is better than individually at $10 each.

rupert: yeah that's what i am looking for atm, need to require a credit card first though before i can buy from ebay, right? or can i join for example paypal without a credit card (dutch) as far as i understand it you can join/ create a paypal/ ebay account with a standerd bank debit card - which i'm guessing you must have? This will mean that when you pay for things it will create in effect an e-cheque, thease take about 6 working days to clear - which means about 8 - 10 actual days. This isnt great but most sellers seem to accept it (my Girlfriend doesnt have a credit card so her payments for items are like this). On the other hand if you have a credit card added to your paypal account then your payments are instant to the seller - even if using your bank debit card (this is what i do) - I think having a credit card attached just means your payment is garenteed. So you don't actually have to use your credit card, it just means your payments to sellers are instant. Hope this is understandable? If i'm wrong on any of this i'm sure sombody will correct me (please do).

Payments are instant with a debit card too, you don't need a credit card.

as far as i understand it you can join/ create a paypal/ ebay account with a standerd bank debit card - which i'm guessing you must have? You should be able to sign up with just a bank account - I did, but that was a few years ago... On the other hand if you have a credit card added to your paypal account then your payments are instant to the seller - even if using your bank debit card (this is what i do) - I think having a credit card attached just means your payment is garenteed. So you don't actually have to use your credit card, it just means your payments to sellers are instant. Sort of, yes. If you have a bank account and a debit/credit card linked to your PayPal account, you can pay directly from your bank account - but instantly. The transfer from your bank still takes up to nine working days, but PayPal will pay it instantly on the theory that if it fails to take it from your bank account, it can take it from the card you have also linked to your account. That's how I do it - it works fine.
