OK, no stupid threads like 360 or ps3 pls helpsss me..or why cant my ps1 play my ps3 game question here. I am aware we have the trusted shop thread, but this thread is to share your con story here, conning or conned tongue.gif

here is mine.

that time, everybody was street fighting 2...i only had NES that time, SF2 was on SNES..so I was helping my aunt in her night market business that time. then there was a dude, my former friend actually, so he met me in the pasar malam, i was busy seeling the ayam goreng that time he asked me why I did that, i said to gather money for snes, to play SF2.then he said why la go all he trouble, he said just give him five bucks (that time 5 bucks a lot of money woo) and any NES catridge that in have, he can help me 'copy' the sf2 into the nes cart. so i, yes,,i was a dumbass that time, gave him 5 bucks and the Duck Hunt cartridge that i had, hoping tomorrow to see the fella in school to collect my cart filled with SNES game to be played on NES.

the next morning, he didnt turn up to school. then the next day after, same story. then i got to know, he moved school. so my damage, 5 bucks, plus a Duck Hunt cartridge and most precious, my self esteem. I was 10 that time.

my con story almost the same like sniper's only that i let my friend borrow my NES cartridge. He said that he was going to return them back to me in a week or two.

Weeks turned to month...after that he told me he sold it!!! WTF!!!?? He sold it cheap too!! He told me i can go ahead and punch him in the face if i want to...but i just go ahead and broke his bicycle's rims. (i was 13 that time)

After that i went to boarding school and my bro pulak stupidly gave my NES cartridges away. It was my prized ori Rockman 1, 2, 3 until 4 T_T

Couldn't do much..he was still in kindergarten n tot i really know the kid that took them...well after that no more gaming until i was in Uni. My bro also lost my Zelda dual screen game n watch and also my die cast metal Voltron!!! Arghhhh!!! I'm really pissed now at him.

I was nearly conned by my very own colleague,
yes he is a jerk.

I am looking to get Suikoden 2 for PSX few weeks ago,
my dear colleague said he could sell his copy to me for RM300....
He said it is rare, and worth that price....

I googled the price, but couldn't really get an indication.
So i believe his "rare" story...
until guess who came to the rescue - GUNDAM, notworthy.gif
this gundam fella found an eBay page that shows the price of around AUD 60....

Man, i confronted my colleague,
and he agreed to reduce the price to RM50.

I thought i got a bargain,
until i see his "Suikoden 2 PSX" in my hand,
it is a piece of crap, with torn manual and scratched disc.

I told him i don't even want it even it is free. sad.gif

Many years ago I went to a shop to buy XBOX (not 360). They only have a crystal version in the shop. I asked if its a new item because the box condition looked a little old. The boss say its new but the box is a little old because he reserved it for someone to buy for his kids (blah blah got story one) but was never sold. I believe and bought it.

The console condition was good, but after playing a few days I happened to be browsing the harddisk, and I saw 5 old saved games there that don't belong to me. It was a used console apparently.

a smaller case -

me went to ask for RE5 (R3)
me : got Asia version one ar?
shopkeeper find find...
shop : ya got , here it is
me : this one region 2 wor...
shop : region 2 is Asia ma

i want to share my friend's story from a while back but this was quite rampant back in the day anyways.

he wanted to buy a ps2 so he went surveying around all the shops in sungai wang. at that time the market price for the slim ones that just came out was about rm900+. one of the shops (cant remember which one) quoted him like rm600+ so naturally he thought he got a good deal la.

he told the ah beng serving him yes he wanted one straight away and this is where it gets fun.

first the ah beng told that price does not include the modchip and for that he has to pay like rm200+ more. then he said because there is going to be a modchip, he has to get a fan to keep the ps2 from overheating and thats another rm200+.

then my friend wanted another extra ori controller so he had to pay like rm200 more (but the controller turned out to be a fake anyway. in fact the supposedly ori controller that came with the set also turned out to be a fake. lol). oh for the memory card (which he thought was ori but also fake), another rm100.

then the best part is the ah beng said because its a jap set, he needs to get a 'special' power adapter that can be used in malaysia. another rm200+.

in the end the total damage was about rm1600+. and my friend paid because he thought it was the market price anyways.

classic.

I "conned" myself.

A long time ago, when I had the PSOne, and I saved up money doing thesis typing assignments so I could afford ONE game every few months, I saved up RM 300.

I went to Sony counter in SOGO. I saw Battle Arena Toshinden 2 (at that time was waiting for tekken 3).

I bought it, waited 3 months for my cuti. Took it balik kampung. Popped it in.

CRIED. and I still cry till now. sometimes.

Yup! It's around there... RM499 + 100plus for the cartridge...

The Super Famicom console is really superior to the Megadrive in terms of graphics. There's no doubt about it.

Sg Wang never sell SFC / SNES at that price,
i shop for games there since SFC/MD era till PSX/Saturn era,
never once i see that price!

FYI, I stopped buying from Sg Wang after i found Lik-Sang and PlayAsia,
Sg Wang conned too much!

Bought a ps2 for RM800 upon agreement and after paying, that b*astard include 2 cheap copy ps1 joypad and when I ask why the told me I need to topup some more money for an "original" dualshock joypad. Pay him more only to noticed it was only replaced with another 2 copy dualshock joypad. doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif Total damage RM1k.

I got the impression MD has better graphic, due to the much faster processor.

I had Super Street Fighter 2 for MD. Quite okay leh, but definitely slower than SFC/SNES version. But then maybe because my MD is clone?

But SNES has better sound. I made 3 way comparison of SNES version of Lion King to MD version to PC version. MD version is equivalent to Ad-Lib audio, SNES version equivalent to SoundBlaster 16 Audio -.-

PC version can sound like either one depending on how you set up your setup.exe

QUOTE
the shop wanted me to add RM180.00 for the power adapter.

Why need separate adapter? Official Sony PS2 adapter is 100v-240v. I thought I will need another adapter when I got my NTSC U/C PS2 from eBay, but then found that the only thing I actually needed was a lead from a old VCR tongue.gif

For me, well, so far I never kena con (except maybe a bit for price of console because u know eBay laa). But my aunt kena:
- Buy clone MD (because it was cheaper- but then it may be a blessing in disguise because the clone MD has no region lock)
- Buy *ahem* Sonic 3, cannot save (because it was cheaper)
- Buy *ahem* Sonic and Knuckles, cannot Lock-On (because it was cheaper)

But then it was a long time ago.

And for Zoro's case, to top it off, those games look very real and original. The catch was a different serial number.

I know it's a little rare to find that sort of a real pirated DS cartridge, but this is actually very rampant in China.

I do get rewarded for what I did in the past, but we'd just realize when we're older that it's for our benefit. Heck, my past keeps me remembering how I only asked PERMISSION to buy a PSX. The money was saved for 2 years.

I went to get my psp 1000 from him. I always buy my consoles when they are just launched. So i got good grades in school, and they wanted to reward me with a psp. I was in my hometown, and they had a meeting in KL so, i asked them to get them for me. Unluckily they bought it in that shop, they guy sold my parents a PSP first gen launch unit that has DEAD PIXELS. And he charged my parents RM499 for a 1gig memory stick. If i were there, i would have stuck a bat into the guys ass im serious. Iam still mad up until now.

me last time bought a digimon v1 for rm100 (real price at that time was around rm 50)

bought the more expensive 1 because shopkeeper said this 1 'special edition' 1.

instead when i opened the box, the 'speacial edition' just give me a keychain that look like the tikam 1 dollar 1... sad.gif

Speaking of console been conned by a few or a lot of ppl when i was small.
The only 2 spectacular event that I still remember was
1) The so called version 10 digimon special edition as well. Took all my savings which is RM100 ( And it's seriously ALOT that time sleep.gif primary school ma) It was said to be new but turned out that it's a used Digimon tamaguchi? I knew it only after my big bro told me it's a used Digimon gaming console sleep.gif''

2) Wanted to buy a gameshark device so badly for PS one. That time the original was around RM80++. So happen that time my parents bring me to Sungai Wang ( Con paradise) . Went to a shop alone without family and bought a so called Original gameshark device for RM50, turned out to be a spoiled gameshark device sleep.gif. Haiz speechless , kids also want to cheat. LOL!!!

I went to get my psp 1000 from him. I always buy my consoles when they are just launched. So i got good grades in school, and they wanted to reward me with a  psp. I was in my hometown, and they had a meeting in KL so, i asked them to get them for me. Unluckily they bought it in that shop, they guy sold my parents a PSP first gen launch unit that has DEAD PIXELS. And he charged my parents RM499 for a 1gig memory stick. If i were there, i would have stuck a bat into the guys ass im serious. Iam still mad up until now.

I had Super Street Fighter 2 for MD. Quite okay leh, but definitely slower than SFC/SNES version. But then maybe because my MD is clone?

But SNES has better sound. I made 3 way comparison of SNES version of Lion King to MD version to PC version. MD version is equivalent to Ad-Lib audio, SNES version equivalent to SoundBlaster 16 Audio -.-

PC version can sound like either one depending on how you set up your setup.exe
Why need separate adapter? Official Sony PS2 adapter is 100v-240v. I thought I will need another adapter when I got my NTSC U/C PS2 from eBay, but then found that the only thing I actually needed was a lead from a old VCR tongue.gif

For me, well, so far I never kena con (except maybe a bit for price of console because u know eBay laa). But my aunt kena:
- Buy clone MD (because it was cheaper- but then it may be a blessing in disguise because the clone MD has no region lock)
- Buy *ahem* Sonic 3, cannot save (because it was cheaper)
- Buy *ahem* Sonic and Knuckles, cannot Lock-On (because it was cheaper)

But then it was a long time ago.

my first and last ps3 is a demo unit in a shop call pop toys , Bintang Shopping Centre, Cheng, Melaka

the lens was probably changed becoz the ribbon clip is white instead of brown. the ps3 lasted me around 10 months.

i did not know it was 1 month old in the display until i on the PS3 to find out the date it first switched on ...

Mine is not much for a case I guess, but here goes..

back then in Manila, I was looking for Soul Calibur (DC). Saw one dude post in one forum, PM-ed him so can arranged COD. Meet him at outside a bar around 2am, when I asked for the game, that guy(with two of his friends) smiling and showed me his knife(parang?) and try to rob me. Luckily I managed to run away, but ended up my left arm bleeding, cos try protect myself when he shoved that thing

at least I still got my 1,207PHP (around RM90?)...and my neck

wow ajis, you went to Manila.. I came from Manila and it is better to meet in the mall than in front of a bar. biggrin.gif

my con story is when I am not aware of the dvd9 first, but this is from the store back in manila. I went to buy "ahem" GOW. I asked why it cost much around 200 pesos (~16 RM). Seller said because it is DVD9, dual layer. I believed her but then when I already played it until I reach a certain stage, the game just stopped and then I just realized they gave me a DVD5 version of the game. Oh well, I can't return it coz it is ahem and already full of scratches.

the moment the factory released the ps3, it's not switch on. the default time is set when u first switch it on smile.gif

based on the default time, usually is around 1st day of the year, the current date of the time when i switched on is 1 month ++ after the 1st day of the year smile.gif


usually, suppliers will test "on" the ps3 before selling.

1 time we were in a game shop in the mall , i still remember this. the mat salleh was asking me which one is my console. i point to the micro genius , then he ask me what game is good. i pick out some games that i like. so after paying the shop , he gave to me. i gave to his son. and then he said no no that is urs. i was so shock at that time. i though he was buying for his son all the while. i was grinning ear to ear. oh man i can still remember the feeling. make my eyes teary just thinking about it. if you r reading this. thank you uncle stefano!!! biggrin.gif

Coming back to how bad we were conned. Around 2002, i bought a PS2 from a shop in 1-Stop Midlands. Not sure if you guys have heard of this shop, the name is called "Tian Lian" in mandarin. This shop also got sell some action figures and swords and etc. So, i bought the PS2 and the guy gave me 2 fake controllers. Thats not the worse part, my PS2 keep crashing and freezing on every game i play. So i brought it back to the stupid shop and he boss denies that the console is having problems. *&^$***.....in the end, i brought to Mario in Komtar and there got one lady technician who helped to solved the problem for me. She found out that the internal chips was soldered badly. damn....i still hate that stupid boss from "tian lian' ....really con me

I dont have a good conning story. But i will give this a shot, no harms done.

So, I have two xbox 360s. One is original and one is a modded set. I used the modded set to play online as well, which is the mistake i made, and it got banned by Microsoft during the first week of HALO3 release date. So, i intend to sell the machine, although it can't go online. So i posted up a topic in another forum, and there is this guy who is interested. I told him the machine can't go online, but he insisted on buying. I managed to sell the machine to him for 1k with 2 controller, and a few back up games where a new set only cost around rm1400 back then.

So, is this considered as conning or ?

i dont have many con story to share
but the one i will always remember is that MGS4 Lowyat launch.. i think its a con case...

most ppl including myself, went to queue up for many hours to get the limited version price 270 if i not mistaken?
then we all went there, after a long wait, found out its like 10 pieces only?
forced to buy RM230 for normal edition..
and that event is yawn.gif yawn.gif yawn.gif , not including the amount of hours we spend sitting + standing there like dungu..
at same night other place selling RM180 minus that wait..

at least we get the necklace but still its way overprice

The analog nub can snap rather easily when one is too harsh on it.

But RM130 to fix it.... doh.gif

I agree with snipersnake, it is almost impossible to get the analog off unless we are very aggressive and put on alot of pressure on it,

he wanted to borrow my pokemon GB cart, and he said he'll give it back in a few days.

he never did.

i went to his house, asking him for the cart, he said he lost it.

the next day, he was showing off his pokemon game.

I still remember that smirk on his face. )@(#$)@#!*(&

don't you guys realize that they don't want to be the source of the blame when they are? Its normal. Just pray they wake up from it during their parenting years. Common thing for a parent to blame someone else and not their child. Just remind yourself not to do it later.

I would smack the chinese speaking indian up his asss even before he can post in this thread.

Another story. I forgot to mention. A few years back, when gameboy colour was still fancy, my cousin conned me into lending him the handheld cause he wanted to play pokemon. I lent the gameboy to him, and up until now the gameboy is still with him and i havent seen him since. Although he is my second cousin, but he seems to avoid going to family gatherings to avoid me initially. sad.gif

here's another story of mine...

my neighbor conned our childhood friendship

i got a PS1 for my PMR. that time PS1 cost a bomb.

i was delighted to get a PS1. played it like tomorrow's gonna end. After that , i left for college. sometime college later,
someone broke into my house, stole some stuff.

at that time, i did not know the actual target is my PS1, until came back. i couldn't find it anywhere.. i asked my parents, they did not either. it was there at a spot where i put it with the box, but it was missing..

[Fast Forward due to religion sensitive stuff.]

later, i found it in my neighbor's house, it was on the floor. At that time, i put a scorpion sticker on top of it. Although the sticker was pilled, it clearly was still my PS1, the scorpion sticker's shape is there.

my mum was with me too. i just take the whole thing home and this "@#$%^&*())))))(*&^%$#%^&*(*&^%$"(sorry tooooooo rude to be said) .....

*contains some rude words :*
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

in the end, both father and son went home, heard some shouting and shouting at his house. i am not bothered..
at that time i got 2 ps1, my mum bought another 1 for me, although a 2nd hand, performance is not a good as mine original one, coz i got oil the gears in it.

in the end i sold the other PS1 becoz i prefer my original PS1.
machine wise, it never let me down.
it let me down once when the controller 1's up button is always being pressed without me pressing.
another time when my memory card was blown. my mGS1 save files byebye.
another time when my 2nd memory card has formatting problem. sometimes can and cant read.
third card is fine till now smile.gif

when we were younger in our secondary school life, we always play C.chess together, watch a few sailor moon/dragon ball episodes that time blush.gif , (ahem.... i just tumpang watch only.. ), read manga together smile.gif , cycle around the kampung together. still remember i drew a Goku pic and colored it for him.

never knew he betrayed our childhood frenship such a way..he was 1 year old younger.

18 years old only .. contains F words

once upon a time when warcraft 3 was about to released, i went to a shop in atria (pj) just to try my luck and see if they got hold of the game 'early.'
as i was looking through the huge rack, lo and behold there it was. warcraft 3. but it wasn't just warcraft 3. it had warcraft 3 : Reevolution (or something like that) printed in all its glory as the title.
i wondered for awhile..reevolution..hmmm..hmmm. after wondering for a grand total of 2 minutes, i went ahead and bought the game anyway.
got back, popped it in and promptly installed the game as i couldn't contain my excitement. the screen loaded up..i was at the main menu.
there it was..warcraft 3: reevolution. somehow it looked strangely familiar..i ignored the feeling and clicked on 'create new game.'
as i stared at my orcs, they looked awkward. they were green but somehow not really green..and i swear this time it wasn't just a feeling..
as i scrolled around, my heart sank. all the orcs and humans had somehow managed to teleport over from warcraft 2.
they were merely the same characters with some dodgy skins draped around them..and damn were they ugly.

so finally i got what the 'reevolution' part was about...damn game shop. felt like going back there and going Bloodlust on their asses.

Don't agree.

Most of the time, their laptop is already infected that the shop itself didn't even know in the first place. Put a new MSPD in, format it, copy some games in a tadaaa! Virus goes in too!

he conned me to..

but he sincere enough:

my story.. i got my NDSL from this indian guy. the price was way lower than i could get in Melaka.. so i got it from here.

at that time i go through the net and do some research.. i wanted the tt card. ahem.

but no matter how many tt cards he tried, he could not get it 2 work with the "new" memory card.

the new ds just would not read it and pop up error.

at that time i paid already. so he offered me m3 ds real.. ahem. Which comes with a rumble adapter!! for a change at NO extra charge!!

at that time.. i was like wow.. the original idea does not have the extra thingy.

happily . i brought home the package tongue.gif

went home, the stupid usb card reader came with the package was faulty. corrupted my ahem memory card for a few times.

the memory card was unstable too. sometimes, the files in the memory card goes haywire. files inside wasn't wat i put in with strange characters.

transfer speed was slower than a snail. very dulan.. i got the original Kingston MircroSD and another card reader myself. no prob until today.

I was conned by my friend.

I own a PS1 last time. My friend conned me into surrendering my PS1 for them to test if it's waterproof.

According to him PS1 got the water proof rubber on the top disc door part . So i ask him to test it.

He straight away throw down his pant and pee on my PS1. shakehead.gif

then 2 months ago my handphone also kaboom because battery problem. so i went back to the shop where i bought it. 2 weeks later i came back to collect my phone and he said battery problem and guess what he gave me a different battery. he gave an ugly brownish spoilt sickening old SE battery and said that was mine. i know my own battery la soh@1. and he has the nerve to say i cheated them by giving faulty battery and want claim new battery from them. wtf? then he tell me go Times Square because thats their headquarters. seriously wtf. last time in melaka my phone kaboom i went to shop and they sent to SE main factory to fix it wtf they didnt send it straigth back to SE factory because my phone still in warranty what. really distressing. my father yelled on the 3rd floor of lowyat say dont buy from this shop really cb.

this is a news i copied from the net..not me but a mom kena "punked" by wall mart



------------------------------------------------------
Florida teen finds rocks in Nintendo DS box
by Ben Silverman



April 27 2:53 P.M.

Jodi Wykle knew her son would be thrilled when she gave him a new Nintendo DS for his birthday.

Instead, he was rocked.

According to WTSP-TV, the confused teen opened up his gift only to find bunch of stones and a rolled up Chinese newspaper in place of the popular handheld.


All I got was a rock.
Needless to say, mom was equally stunned.

"When he opened it, he was pulling the seal off, my sister-in-law carries a pocket knife and she opened it and that's when he pulled it out and it was Chinese newspaper and a bunch of rocks," she explained.

The troubling discovery prompted the Florida woman to contact the local Wal-Mart where she bought the curious box and complain, but reportedly workers there told her it wasn't their problem and that she should contact Nintendo instead. Of course, Nintendo told her roughly the same thing, leaving mother and son with a $138 box of rocks.

"They don't want to do nothing. They want me to keep the box of rocks. I'm not buying a box of rocks for $138," she said.

Amazingly enough, however, Wal-Mart soon caved after learning that the same box of rocks had been previously returned by another disgruntled customer. How exactly it made it back onto store shelves remains a mystery, but for her troubles, Wykle was given a full refund and a $20 gift card.

It's not the first time Wal-Mart has gotten into hot water for selling a questionable handheld. Earlier this month, a PSP system bought at a different Wal-Mart store in Florida was found to contain a memory stick filled with pornographic images

The rock thing has been around for ages. Cosby show even poke fun at it once iirc (the guy go buy a new TV at discount price only to get a box with a TV back cover and bricks). And then some guy also go buy a iPod from Wal-Mart only to get a box of rocks oso.

Also, that's literally how the term "bricked" came into use tongue.gif

My cousin and I went out to buy a PS2 from a "friend" of his. This was before the slim PS2s were released. So we go out, get the PS2, two controllers and a couple games from the dude (don't remember how much we paid for it, probably a couple hundred ringgit).

Went home, hooked it up and it wouldn't read any of the discs. So we got back to this guy one week later and he said something about the laser. "No problem, I can fix one..."

So we give him the PS2 console. And never saw him again!

These were the days when we didn't have handphones, so everything done through word of mouth or calling people at home... ah, the good old days! Sad part is that I probably still have those controllers in my house somewhere!

I'm once hampir kena con. I go to a mall in search to buy a digimon. After looking for some shop, I found one. And the conversation begin,

Me : I wanna look at this digimon. Is it the ori one or the fake one?

Shop : Of course ma. No need to look. I'm possibly sure it's ori.
Me: Then, give me a look of it.

Shop : (Take the box and give it to me)

Me : (Take a look at it and found out its the fake one). Hey tauke, this is the fake one la. Don't try to cheat me.

Shop : How did you know it is the fake one. I already sold 5 units of it and no one complain bout it. Don't play2 ha....

Me : Aiya.... Because I already know la i know this is the fake one. The brand also not BANDAI. It's BANDAL.

Shop : Owh? It is true? I'm also didn't know this is the fake one. Damn those suppliers.. They say that this is the ori one

Then i going out from the shop and laugh out with my friends. The shop owner also didn't knew that one is ori or not. Really wierd....

My conned experience.

You remember the days of playstation right? I played FFVII and I heard that we can get Septhiroth and young cloud as playable using GAMESHARK.

So, I borrowed my friends gameshark, the cd looked weird and all with fuzzy prints on the cd. I used it and wanted to return it to him.

And... on that day due to a freak of nature I fell and broke the cd. Ya know whut?

My "friend" charged me RM50.

It was only a few years back I noticed that I paid RM50 for a fake GAMESHARK.

and.

I did have him a Sea Warrior Destroyer Fist for other reasons back in school.

I dint regret doing it when I think about it. smile.gif

My so called con story, con by my frend.

Tekken 3 damn popular. my frend have tekken 3 PS1. then he wanna sell me. I said no money. He said got cheaper RM 20 for PC. I said u stupid ke? PS1 cannot play computer game. He said can play laa.

So tomoro he give me the PC CD i pay him RM 20. Go home pop in the CD and press the green button (which is reset). So it turn on but stop at the PS1 logo (i think so) so the PS1 suddenly pusing so laju and loud. Me become damn worried since it's my bro PS1 (if rosak who know how my bro gonna seksa me like tumbukan pendekar laut etc.) so i open the CD part and the CD pusing pusing like hell. I cabut the Power supply and suddenly keluar sound "bhew". then dun dare to touch the PS1 anymore. tomoro at school sepak my friend.

I wouldn't really think so, seeing as most places selling PSone nowadays also sell for around 250-300. 700 with the stuff you got in '99 should have been okay, I guess.

certain game shops post very cheap price games and when customers showed up at their premise, then find out that they have no stock.
wasting time, effort and gas money.
sort of like making customers refraining from buying at shops that have stocks and proper pricing.
i dun know if this amounts to a con job , certainly it is very unethical to do so.
not a right thing to do as a business person, making people go all the way but cant deliver the stuff

This maxlink is a con shop. I bought a ps2 from them in dec 2006. Guess what? The 2 controllers are fakes. I believe your ORI DS2 controllers are fake too.

Same happened to me. But for Dreamcast, only a few months then discontinued.

btw, here's my story: Dreamcast

Looking to buy DC then at Sg Wang, as usual gazillion conmen with the B4 and AFTER story.

Usually B4 will say low price. After you paid the cash, then will ask you to pay more.

For my case, the girl (last i saw her many years later, still in Sg...but a fatter b*** now), she tried to con me with the PSU thingy if i remember correctly. And then she try to con me charging dunno > RM100 for a stupid pirated disc for booting the DC (Back then, need a Boot disc to boot ahem DC game). I told her off and said i'm not paying anything for that ( i knew about it, in fact, i can download that if neccessary). In the end, she reluctantly let me have the boot disc for free...LOL.

mine was a sad case:

i remember back in the days i wanted so bad of those DR DISkPRo or something, can't remember what it is called.Its the thing you hook on to the SNES using diskettes instead of catridges. So my friend have one and the market price was around rm800+ that time, he was willing to sell me for around 700+, can u imagine how expensive rm800 was during the snes era? i didn't have any money so one day i found a stash of foreign currency belonging to my parents and i stole it. It has currency of over 30 countries from their travelling around the world. I even had a few 100 pounds corrency and imagine it was one stash of different country currency. I didnt know how much there was and i didnt know where to exhange it to rm so i approached my friend, he said he was able to exchange it for me. So i pass the stash to him and he refunded me around rm200+. I was really naive that time, i got the dr disk or whatever u call it but what i didnt realise is i might have lost my parent's couple thousand ringgit worth of money or unreplacable "traveling memorabilia". I still remember my mum use to ask "did u see the stash of foreign currency here?" i denied ever see-ing it. I never told them the truth and they never know till this day.

Now i'm a grown up i feel sooooooooooooooooooooo bad about it. I feel like crying. If i ever see this friend of mine again i'd punch him square in the face.

I'm soooooooooooooooooo sorry i was only 13 that time. sorrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

Same tactics use to con customer in Sg. Wang. If not adapter, they'll use modchip, bootdisk to chatge extra to the customer. doh.gif


Must the the fatty working in the same shop with the infamous "Chinese speaking Indian guy". Last time they owned a couple of game shops in Sg. Wang. But last time when i went there they closed most of their shops and move to a shop at the upper level and all cramp to a small counter with the fatty taking most of the space in the counter. I was like laugh.gif Good news maybe, coz from what I heard the upper level rent is cheaper then the lower level. Maybe they'll close their shop soon.

Really "nice" story u all got here. I have a story but not mine. My friend is
studying in France and one of his professor went to Italy if I'm not mistaken. His professor's husband bought a kind of fancy camera at a shop but the shop owner asked him to not open the camera box. They went back to their hotel and the fun part is there is only rock in the box. Her husband was afraid to go back to the shop but thank God she was brave enough to go back to the shop and get back their money.

whoa, this shop...really con that much? i thought of buying my wii from there...but i think i got conned too i guess, from the PAL and NTSC thing

as far as i know today (not like 8 mths ago), a korean mod set is a korean mod set...probably instead of a PAL switched region, they give you a NTSC switched region...and if you know how to work around things...it can be done without the additional rm250 i've paid out...in addition to a faulty battery pack as well that i paid for rm 80 (which doesn't really hold its charge even with a 3600mah power source)
of course, with homebrew...you can play like almost all region games, right?lolz

a side story also, just happened like 2 weeks ago till today
bought a handphone at sungei wang (this wretched place again)...a k770i (at a price of rm480)...found that it has a faulty battery hold (it drains battery charge like drinking water, on standby mode, 50% of it charge goes away after 7 hours)...so i decided to change it to a newer model today (27th august 2009)...i got a w890 for rm580...(an additional rm100)...but upon further research...the price is about rm 500+ (around rm 550 at most), and it comes with a 2gig memory card...what i have is the 512mb memory card (from the k770i phone)...which is a 2nd hand card and i must say that i didn't mind much about it before...but a 512mb with a 2 gig memory card and a much higher than market priced phone...now...that is some con job around there...zzz

Last time which around early 2009 my sis wanted to get a new wii for herself so decides which place is cheaper and good reliability services so I pick either choice which is in 1 utama or sunway pyramid. so I pick the destination 1st is 1 utama i usually start surveying upper floor opposite TGV sells a game consoles but funny thing they charge weird price if come in whole set it charge around RM1200 and excluded adapter so I had fishy about that price but worse thing beside MCD charge bloodie expensive is like extra Rm 200 for no reason.

Then I decided to move 2nd location is sunway pyramid when we arrived at game shop is upper floor I guess opposite of IT store cant remember a name but has been renovated a new shop which I never heard but not sure wether own same owner shop as before so I asked fello ah beng guy how much is the wii price and he say is somewhere around RM900 for whole console set and comes with korea wii box the mod chip switch into english channel able to understand then I say ok but he told me I have to get a new adapter for wii coz the adapter voltage is different compare to malaysia then I say ok another extra RM200 so total cost is RM 1200 or 1100 something, plus edition with wii controls which cost around RM 200 but When i found on survey price supposedly average Rm 160... after I found out before we bought it, so total cost around RM 2500 I guess if i am not miss calculation bought 3 wii controls+wii fit and guitar rock band total amount. After we left sunway we decided play few games then when we wanted to play wii sports something was not right.... the consoles no problem but 1 big problem is the Mii character channel is missing is like WTF.

The next day I quickly send the wii to shop owner asking why there's no Mii channel.. Another ah beng say he not sure and I would be expecting that ah beng had low customer service . so I asked ah beng contact boss and he told me charge me RM 200 to get A mii channel back. I am so mad why that seller never told me there's no mii channel and charge me ridiculous price I ask idiot boss can give cheaper and he say no cheaper but guarantee fix price, looks like I came wrong shop but con my money so I called my sis and we really had not choice have to pay to them RM 200 after they done. After came back from my college asking help forum to urge luckily a person suggest me to go somewhere pudu jalan and told me is free no charge guarantee then I feel so relief and quickly get back wii before they install channel. I called back that stupid boss I need to get it back my Wii without any fixing on mii channel then suddenly boss charge me cheaper from 200 to 150 I expected he really want con my money then I told him no just dont fix and return it back. I always demand when wii will be arrive and told me he's in KL currently doing some business and ask me come back at 1 pm and I say Ok better be sure arrive, after a while I asked again when wii will arrived another 1 more hour then 2 hours then again 3 hours i feel awkward walking around in shopping more than 5 hours just to eagerly get it back. I approach stupid boss but he didn't call me when he's around in sunway is like wasted my time and wasted precious so quickly get it back and ciao I never forget cheated us for stupid channel price.... So finally I got a mii channel with no charge biggrin.gif

Really "nice" story u all got here. I have a story but not mine. My friend is
studying in France and one of his professor went to Italy if I'm not mistaken. His professor's husband bought a kind of fancy camera at a shop but the shop owner asked him to not open the camera box. They went back to their hotel and the fun part is there is only rock in the box. Her husband was afraid to go back to the shop but thank God she was brave enough to go back to the shop and get back their money.

a rock for a camera..that is really some con job laugh.gif

The same shop mentioned by User "Gion" in his/her above post about buying wii issue.

The one opposite of the Digital/IT Center entrance, easy to spot cuz they are like the only shop selling games there (on that floor and outside IT center)

i remember i bought a wii remote plus 3 days after it was released in US. price: 130rm. now you can buy one for about 80-90rm. i was so desperate and got it from ebay. the seller was smart coz he knows i was desperate, and u can't find them in shops at that time. a week before i bought the game "grand slam tennis" that supports wii remote plus, so i needed that hardware to complete the experience. was it worth it? well i should had been more patient. but by nature i am never patient. so in that sense it was worth it.

they told me buy this game
it take u 5 yrs to finish 99 game in 1 catridge
i beleave and yes...till now i never finish all 99 game

oh speaking of this 99 in one cartridge, remember browsing thru the games in Bangkok, I held this NES Double Dragon cartridge, then I saw another cartridge,999 in 1. Well, of course I resorted to the latter, thinking it was wise economically.

Booted the game, I saw Super Mario World 1, Super Mario World 2, Super Mario World 3 and so on. Contra too. I was 10 at that time. Sometimes I cry because of this.
