What should I put in my listing to let the buyer know it has CFW on it without it getting shot down by Nintendo/ebay?
But I've seen other sellers do it all the time :/To let the buyers know is almost impossible because it is auction. You are better off sell it on the Craig list. Ebay is a higher risk for CFW. You could get sue and get in trouble. Very serious in trouble. I don't recommenced it or you would regret.
The English version for letgo takes me to a site called "OfferUp". Can I use that site too?your best bet is going smaller selling platform "mericari. letitgo, Cragslist, facebook,
But I've seen other sellers do it all the time :/
Yeah, they do it all the time but have you seen them get away with it or getting arrest or something ? We will never know.
Factory reset doesn't remove CFW from the system. I also heard that uninstalling CFW, makes hacking the system again problematic. So if the buyer wants to hack it as well, there might be some issues with it. I don't want to deal with any of thatwhy not factory reset it?
Should be fine if it is Nintendo, just don't include any pirate games, OP should be fine, I sold a few CFW 3ds here in the US before, no legal problem, just listing got removed that all. If he was to sell with Sony Console he would probably get sued for copyright stuffs if he sold pirated games.
Yes exactly. I heard the most that could happen was ebay simply taking down the listing. I don't plan on selling it with pirated games on it and only want to advertise the CFW features as "you can back up games" and "region free"Should be fine if it is Nintendo, just don't include any pirate games, OP should be fine, I sold a few CFW 3ds here in the US before, no legal problem, just listing got removed that all.

Well, perhaps.. Perhaps not. As I said you will never know. I recommended him to use facebook market or Craigslist. He should be safe.

I saw someone list a launch 3DS with "custom firmware" in the title and it was sold in the next few hours. though it is possible it was taken down later
Well it is a gamble for him if he wants to sell it on ebay, there always the risk the listing get removed, depends on how the buyers react, it is trouble for the seller if the listing get removed, I sold few 3DS with CFW before, the listing pretty much always get removed, but I managed to get the order to go through, got some good customers.
The listing getting removed after someone buys it is what I'm really afraid of. I've sold many games on ebay before and usually ebay holds on to my money till after the item has arrived. I don't know how that would work if they take the listing down.Well it is a gamble for him if he wants to sell it on ebay, there always the risk the listing get removed, depends on how the buyers react, it is trouble for the seller if the listing get removed, I sold few 3DS with CFW before, the listing pretty much always get removed, but I managed to get the order to go through, got some good customers.

From my experience of selling them on ebay, if you want to sell them don't include any pirated game due to copyright problem, as for listing there is always good chance of them removing it, they will just claim copyright violation, depends on your buyer how nice they are, they can open a case with paypal claiming they got scam since the listing got removed, so if you sell them you must proving tracking before the listing get removed. I sold like 2-3 units, listing got removed, but I got my payment for them so should get them to pay quickly.
On Facebook, Is it ok to put "CFW" or "Luma3DS" in the title or is it better in description?Well, perhaps.. Perhaps not. As I said you will never know. I recommended him to use facebook market or Craigslist. He should be safe.

I'm considering using Facebook marketplace instead. its where I bought the 3DS i have now in the first place but this would be my first time selling there so I don't have much credibility. Is it ok to put "CFW" or "Luma3DS" in the title? Or is it better to put in the description?
