I'm skeptical,
The one I got was 200205363679. The picture doesn't show the USB door but when I got it, it had the E305 on the door. They're still selling them that way for starting price of .97

The one I found last night with the original packagin had a buy it now so I grabbed it...I'm sure I overpaid but that seems to be my lot in life.

And while we're discussing real vs. fake rare plates...
What's up with the plates from ta.chat (260224540028)? He's been selling these for a couple of weeks.
But the colors look different compared to 170206548682.
These look legit. I've got one loose and it looks exactly like the pictures this guy has (I even started trying to compare the position of the rings between mine and the picture). Buying one of these loose is more for appearance anyway - if the fake is that good then I'm really not terribly worried about it.
I'm gonna go ahead and try to claim the one I put in red above - I've been promising Spacey one of these for a while now and I think it's time I made good on it. :)
I feel loved!
or it might just be the suppository.
I thought the one I laid out was the second earliest?
Oh well - I actually looked at what each one was going for and chose the one that was going for the most at the time - trying to be a team player. ;)
ya your right so i will try for the earliest one though it ends at 1:00 am for me item number 260227361516
Ahem.
I have been informed that both IdolM@ster faceplates are currently up for bids on eBay. Which is kind of a bummer since garakuta was supposed to let me know when he had another of the IdolM@ster Girls.
Anyway, the green and pink plate was only available in a $200 LE set from Japan and shows up very rarely. Y'all should jump on it.
However..... the IdolM@ster Girls plate will be mine.
That is all.
:cheers:
SpaceGhost,
Which is is the 'girls' plate? 160227483835 or 160227484592?
I don't want to go crazy with the bidding until I know which one to focus on.
Gotta catch em all, gotta catch em all.
I'm trying to personally end the recession by spending all my money on faceplates.
Dark Sector on ebay BIN 149.99
220221781834
I can recommend the seller. I bought one of the prior Dark Sector's he had.
190213191640 - Team XBox Faceplate
270224450634 - Ubisoft Vendor Faceplate - act quick, only about two hours left.
DONT BUY THE VENDOR PLATE ITS WAY TOO EXPENSIVE i wouldnt go over 30 for the plate with shipping and its nearing 50 without shipping unless you wanna waste money i wouldnt go for that one, also any one else notice that c***1 has been on every plate no offense (insert name of the guy on our site who is cantstopcollecting) but your getting ripped off left and right 300 for urban RIP, 210 for New Zealand Saints Row RIP, also a few more just calm down dude and leave some for the rest of us

Just got the one I bought for Spacey today - it's not real. :crying:
I took some comparison shots and I'll be starting a new thread tonight to show off the difference.
Sorry Spacey. I'm going to get in touch with the seller and see what he has to say about it.
And Gh0st_R1der yours is probably a fake too since you got the one that ended right before mine.
Well, what happens with super limited plates is this:
Let's say there are 200 of some plate. 100 of them are in some collector's house and will never be sold. The other 100 are in "some guy's" house, and he'll eventually sell them.
A year from now, there are 150 in collections and 50 just "out there."
Two years from now, there are 190 in collections and only ten left "out there."
The total number of plates hasn't changed, but the number of plates actually available continues to decrease over time, driving the price up.
At some point, they'll end up like the IdolM@ster Girls plate, where one show up every six months, and if you don't get it then, you MAY never see it again.
There's got to me a thousand Naruto faceplates out there. Where are they? How many War of the World plates are there? DOA Kasumi? Trusty Bell? X-Men? They're out there, they're just not "available" and unlikely to EVER be "available." They're "home" and they're staying there.
thats a great perspective just look at the X05 canada editions i got mine from a canadian and he was reluctant to sell but wanted some money and i believe that some plates have a personal value not just money value because i would never sell my X05 amsterdam since i am dutch but i also will never sell my tags 06 #1 because ITS NUMBER 1 anyways. I believe that some people who dont have collections just dont wanna sell their plates because of a personal value they have to a specific person and so thats why i think there arent any more X05 Canada available for the time being
Crap.
SpaceGhost,
Thanks for sticking up for me. You're absolutely right. Two months ago, I had maybe 10 plates. All of them retail. I didn't even know this world existed. I started shopping on ebay for a completely different hobby and by accident hit on some cool plates up for auction. I passed up on a lot of rare plates in the first month. I was just trying to get all the video game based plates. It wasn't till I found this site and saw all the awesome collections that learned of the dozens of launch plates and other exclusives.
Jak, you're also right...I do need to calm down and pace myself. If I outbid you on any plate that you had your heart set on, please let me know and we'll work out a deal.
At this point, i think I'm only missing a couple of game plates (prey, 1 idolmaster, and simpsons).
I don't promise not to bid on more plates, but at this point, I'll be looking for bargains so good luck to you all.
Also...I think there should be a trademark violation or something here:
Ebay Item 350009501091
For the Fake E3 plate I just bought for Spacey. I had a backup plan in mind just in case it turned out to be fake.
I'm like the Boy Scouts - always prepared. :rofl:
You never know - he got the X-Men plate (only one I've ever seen) and the Global Support plate I think (only seen 2 and I have 1 of them), so if it ever shows up on eBay (and some day it will) he's going to get it. :cheers:
uh goldeneyez got the x-men and global support faceplates. not hellonearth gameking..=p
Well I was very fortunate as well and have obtained a Prey faceplate so I will abstain from going crazy if one appears on ebay. I of course would like an idolm@ster set, but mainly because it's a rare faceplate... not because I think it looks good or I like the game. The simpsons one I would also like, but in the meantime I am having mypainteffects make a custom simpsons with Simpsons under the CD tray and a pink glazed donut around the power button. The GTA console faceplate would be nice too (even though I think Spacey's looks better).
There are a few I'm still really looking for.
how the **** you get a prey **** this i quit i mean its only money now any1 can decide to collect and take all the rare plates away from the longer collectors pm me offers i am sick of this crap i am out of money and all i see is people getting insanly rare plates without me forget it i am done
Backup Plan ;)
