Selected User Reviews For Game Boy Advance SP - Flame

The right guy to buy from is the one you should use
5/5

It is MountainDrew that you need to purchase That's all I have to say right now. The customer service he provided was so good that I decided to write a review. I rarely take the time to do this, but was so impressed with his customer service that I did it. As I was going to be buying such an old gameboy, I figured I would prepare ahead of time and buy all the extras to go with Because I know I will need them, I got things like a carrying case and a charger. Having revived the item only two days before, I was surprised when I opened the bag to find it alive. Not only did he include a nice carrying case, but he also included a charger. All the gameboys were fully charged when he packed them up neatly. Many of these little things seem insignificant, but they really made a difference in my life. If you are buying anything from this seller, we recommend them for the outstanding level of service.

As described, it arrived exactly as expected! As great as I had anticipated, the Gameboy arrived to me in excellent condition
5/5

It looked like trash, but it still worked when I got it from a local store for a similar price. As described, it was shipped fast and arrived on time. There was a review that mentioned 001 vs 101, and I did reach out and ask about this. It must be remembered that there were only 3 regular colors available on the 101 In case you bought a different color, you won't get a 101. I bought a pearl blue, a pearl pink, and a graphite. In the 101, the price will likely be much higher, and I'm not sure that it's worth it at all. My red flame red one looks way better inside my house when it's lit up, and it brings back great memories because I had one identical to this You do not have to worry about not getting the 101 if you feel you will miss out. The eBay seller also sells upgrade kits so you can upgrade the shell and screen at a very reasonable price.

Before shipping products, they don't check to see if they are working properly
3/5

In a nutshell, Buying from this seller is a bad idea. It doesn't even seem like they check their products to ensure they work the way they should. The battery in the red SP when I received it was already dying when I received it. That shows they didn't even check to see if the battery was able to charge. Oh, and here's what you need to know. Having a problem charging the SP was my main concern. It isn't like you do not know! There was a problem with the charger's charging port and you could only make it work by wriggling the rail end of the charging cable where it attaches to the charging port to get the LED to illuminate. It's like they don't even go through the trouble of checking their own products, so they send you defective products. You're better off taking your money somewhere else. When you buy from Ravenholm Electronics, you aren't getting your money's worth. A complaint to the BBB should be honest.

Please be aware This is a waste of money
3/5

The ship arrived in a seemingly normal state. The condition of the car is pristine. When I turned it on, the power button jiggled loosely and the power cut in and out randomly. I was greatly impressed and excited. It is useless. It occurs to me that after reading other reviews I should have known that this seller has a problem with this type of item. Although it's one of the cheapest sellers of the GBA SP on this site, I figured it was worth taking That was a mistake on my part.

Purchasing GBA SP in the wrong version can cost you a lot
3/5

I like the gameplay in this game - While it's a strong product, it's not as appealing as it should be. The backlight on this older version isn't as bright as the one on later versions, and the side of this device has a carving of the previous owner's name. My personal opinion is that it is passable at best, and not that impressive at all. It arrived half-empty when it arrived, but the box itself was intact I opened it. This slip wasn't my fault, but I don't know what caused it- The presentation is not only messed up, but it is made even worse when the package is opened.

Before you purchase, make sure you look at the model
4/5

My parents had one of these when I was a kid, which is why I bought this item. The day it arrived I was a bit disappointed because it was the ags001 model, I didn't think I would use it much, so I sort of tossed it to the side. I got bored and decided to play super Mario world the next day. It's been 2 days and I just can't put down that damn thing. My heart swells with delight when I see this console. Having that nostalgia feeling and reliving memories are two of the best things about it. One thing I wish the seller had said it was model 001 was that it was not stated. It's a great product for anyone who wants to buy one, but be careful which one you choose. When you find an ags 101, it is typically on the last page of listings. If the sale does not list the model number, then it probably is.

That's way better than I I am nbsp It was to play all of my old favorite games that I ordered the Gameboy
5/5

My unit was shipped to me today by CaveGamers, and it was in better shape than I expected. A few scuff marks and a new case would be helpful, but other than cosmetics, it is in great working condition.

You'll feel nostalgic when you're nostalgic! About a month ago I purchased the Game Boy Advance SP
4/5

When I thought I was feeling nostalgic I realized I was on the ground and off of my fence, like a shoe at a rooster. As soon as I thought of Ebay, I thought of After typing Ebay(dot)com, I tried a number of combinations. After I started, the experience was great, but as I progressed my feelings devolved into pure hatred. Using eBay is a waste of time! There are poor interface tools, poor interactivity, and poor seller availability. My next step was to visit Google Shop, but it had too many hits related to gameboy advance. There was no benefit to it. Last but not least, you directed me Amazon has a very nice interface and it offers a lot of options. This site could be the home of various wild organisms from South America, and all the products on it are just the many different types of organisms that live there. No matter what the case may be, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and I plan to buy more products from Amazon in the future. Please read PS. Gameboy Advance SP is a great purchase for everyone.
