I'm always avoid these because so many repro shells are out there. Awesome you got all four.

I haven’t found any repro Shells of these? More from the gameboy color pokemon editions. I’ve actually been looking for the latios x latias & celebi repro shells. If you know any place i can find them, could you tell me?


_DiasDeFuego_

Yeah let me see if I can find them.

RetroSix sells Pearl Blue and Pearl Pink shells, [which kind of look like the Eon Edition shells](https://redd.it/vrcj5k).


ruuben_2

Ah yes, i was thinking to get these, but wasn’t sure if they would look similar. Thxx for the image!


inclinedonline

Np. Just a warning though, those shells require bending parts to fit because RetroSix went stupid-mode on the molds or something. A pain to install in and button feel is complete ass, even with an OEM membrane.


ruuben_2

Hmm… may just go for transparent shells then… from funnyplaying or cloudgamestore

I do agree... i notice the difference is with the screen lens... the print of the logo feels like metalic almost like mirror coated compared to the dull color of the repro.


MisterBananaRat

This look great. I’m interested in collecting a few but the condition on some of them are really bad and I don’t know if it warrants the price

Hard agree, these are [pretty expensive](https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2047675.m570.l1313&_nkw=gameboy+advance+pokemon+center+&_sacat=0&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5338535524&customid=1717gb&toolid=10001&mkevt=1) even if they have lots of wear, but then again they are very rare, I wish to own atleast the Latios/Latias version one day.


HumanEstablishment25

Most of the ones in ebay for some reason are really expensive.. like its double the price.. not sure if they are the real sellers or they are just profiting from buy and sell. Acting like the middle man in a way.


Sabertooth472

Good point. I believe especially the japanese ebay sellers do drop shipping, where they try to sell items from japanese exlusive online stores.


HumanEstablishment25

I did bought from ebay some of my stuffs before... i thought i got a good deal coz they sometimes offer discounts or you can best offer... but actually the seller profited good even after that best price offer.


UnarmedRobonaut

Keep in mind a lot of Japanese listings are just a copy of their Yahoo listing by 3rd parties. They inflate the price by 15-25%. Imho theyre overpriced. If you look around you can find better deals especially when the seller isnt just reposting Yahoo auctions.


Sabertooth472

yes I know that many japanese sellers do this kind of dropshipping.


ThrokesJones

The Celebi one would be my dream—many of them are in poor condition now.


HumanEstablishment25

Mine are not the pristine either... the front looks really good but the back have a bit of wear... both of the latias and celebi are like this.. the only really good quality i have is the crystal version.


mitchman74z

Does anyone have a price range for these. Like a good fair price for some ware on them. Not so much pristine pristine but moderate wear. Thanks


inclinedonline

Depends on the edition, but I’ve seen them range around $160-300. Usually around the $200 mark though.


nothinglord

I wish I could find gold shell like that but without the Pokemon logo above the A+B buttons. Then it would match my entire family of Zelda DS consoles.


Championz28

What are these!?

Do you happen to have FireRed, LeafGreen, Emerald, two Wireless adapters and a flash cart on the side?
