Adventures in Overseas Game Buying

(my first blog so go easy on me )

My recent email corresponance with a vendor selling me a EUR 3ds game.
I live in the US but have a EUR system.

Me:
*Buys crappy 3ds game from 3rd Party Seller*

3rd party seller:
Hi do you have a pal machine as the game ordered wil only work on a uk machine, would you like the order cancelling? regards

Me:
I'm aware of the game's region, and yes, I do have a EUR 2ds.
Thanks for checking with me though.

3rd party seller:
thank you for getting back to us
sorry, just to confirm again, you do have a EUR 3DS console, not a 2DS
best regards

Me:
I have a EUR 3DS too. I collect 3DSs and 2DSs.

I'm incredulous at this point, but I guess I have to lie to this guy or he will try to get out of the sale.
This game is like 4 pounds and 3 for shipping, and for that reason, I think, this guy is trying to get
out of a money losing sale.

Anyway, that's it for my cool-story-bro blog, thanks for listening. Just had to get this off my chest as it's a little annoying to say the least.
