I managed to buy a GBMirco off of ebay the other day.
This is similar to my Xbox360 for $20 exploit that some of you might remember, but this time, I actually got the thing.

It's one o' them Famicom metallic red and gold Micros. And I won it for $20 because the guy called it a GAMboy Miroc. He completely misspelled it so I won the thing. And unlike the Xbox360 guy, he actually sent it without complaining.

Normally I wouldn't buy a Micro, I already have a GBA, and 2 SPs, but this was a great opportunity.

Dont' ask how I found it though.

You really are good with this, keep looking, you might find another chance to get an Xbox 360 for some cheap price.

I can see someone letting a $150 collectors version of the GBM for $20, but the 360 will never go for that price.

I was lucky to get it for $20 that one time, but the guy was never going to send it.

Here's some pics:

The second pic shows a Purple GBA cart in there (it's my XGTurbo 2, 256Megabit). It's off to the side a little but it works. My supercard CF looks stupid as there's a Compact Flash card sticking out of it. But that doesn't even work on it.

As for the quality of the image, it's funny you say that cause I had to reduce the quality because imageshack didn't like the filesize. It's an Olympus 3.2MP d35 zoom... if that helps. It's my girlfriends camera.

I think it looks pretty cool Thaddius, it's about the size of the average wallet. Oh and the Kitty is cool too. ^_^

OMG that cat is nearly as fat as mine.
The Micro bigger than I though it would be.

It's smaller than a cell phone... and my cat isn't fat. Must be the angle cause she's not fat.

It's okay Thaddius, having an obese feline is nothing to be ashamed of.
