About a month ago, I made a thread with a WTB for some Sony-brand PS1 memory cards. defor PM'd me saying he had a few. I made an offer on 3 of them, and he agreed so I sent him the money.

The following are presented with their date of sending:
12/6

Sorry about this, but your shipment's going to be delayed a day...
Turns out 2 of the 3 cards I was planning to send were "new boxed japanese (bootleg) cards".. only noticed them when i was getting them packed and noticed the text on the back wasn't the same font as the normal sony ones... sigh...
On the upside, i can convert them to socketed cards for playing around with given that they use bog standard flash chips and not the sony ones used on real chips.

I'll bring in some real sony ones with me to ship out tomorrow and get you your order :D

Hi!

That's really weird; I've never even heard of that... Sometimes you gotta wonder at the number of people it takes to make a bootleg look so much like an original when the value of the item is so low as it is. I mean, Neo carts are one thing, but PS1 memory cards? Pff.

Anyway, let me know as you ship stuff. Thanks for the heads up.

Hey defor,

It's been almost 3 weeks so I figured I would check in. Any status on these memory cards?

Ack!
sorry- I'm rather certain they went out, but I just left for vacation and won't be back in town until the 2nd of january!

If it was a time pressing matter (Hollidays), I have no problem refunding you as it sounds like they haven't arrived....

-let me know, and hopefully it was just some delivery delays.

Heyo,

It's not too time pressing. I can hang out and wait til you get back. Enjoy your vacation!

Hey Dan,

Hope vacation was great, and happy new year and stuff! Just curious if you ever found out what happened to the memory cards.

I still haven't heard from him, and he has logged in 4 times since I sent that last message.
