[WANTED] Cartridge reader (EU)

[peoplesbeer]

So there's a few bits and pieces left for my build and this part is still needed as I want to go for the SD card in original cartridge mod.

I've found a few cartridge readers on ebay located in the US but the shipping is almost 4x the actual cost - so if there's anyone located in EU or even better Sweden that have a spare I could buy I'd be really thankful!

i ordered 5 and actually paid that extraordinary shipping, i guess you could have one for let's say 40 kronor plus postage.

or if you're near stockholm you could just pick it up.

[peoplesbeer]

Oh, thats quick!
I couldn't justify the shipping from the US just using one, never thought of selling the other ones...
I actually live in Stockholm as well but busy days coming up. I'd love to buy one, win win since you don't need to feel that the shipping cost were too heavy on your pocket anymore.

I'll send a PM!

[CaptainDurden]

alright, just dont pm me in swedish please, i'm still learning (i'm german)

edit: i'm terribly sorry people, the readers i have left i will need myself in future projects, please stop pm'ing me. this is the ebay listing i got them from, looks like they went up in price a bit though:

On that note, if anyone in Europe would happen to have an extra cartridge reader (the slim-factor from Nintendo DS, that is) and wouldn't know what to do with it, I'd be more than happy to get it of your hands. I'll of course pay the postage as well as the price you paid for the reader.

I have spent the last week looking for a cartridge reader in the UK.

I am building two projects and can salvage one from an old Game Boy however I am having a problem sourcing a second reader.

The seller from @wermy's latest build is sold out in the US. And I have tried eBay, Amazon and a few Game Boy specific sites.

Any suggestions anyone?

Have you checked out kitsch-bent? Here is one of his: http://market.sudomod.com/kk_gb_zero_b/

Doesn't have as much filtering as the prerunnerseth one but I've had good luck with it.

Edit: Sorry I misunderstood, thought you were looking for the actual cartridge. Yeah ebay used to have a ton of them but everyone seems to be out. :\

aliexpress has some but only in sets of 20: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/20X-Nin ... 94412.html

Cheers @wermy

I hadn't seen aliexpress, and thankfully it looks like they do international shipping to the UK, although with 20 I think I'll be selling them myself, haha.

I actually messaged the seller on Aliexpress yesterday, asking if it would be possible to ship lesser quantities of the reader than 20. I got a reply saying that it might be possible and they'll get back to me next week when they restock because even though the website doesn't say so, they're also out of readers at the moment.

Here's a new auction where you can get 5 instead of 20... don't know about international shipping though.
