Just a quick tip; on Yahoo Japan right now there is both a Pooyan card (which I've never seen before) and a complete Magical Tree in decent condition.

(By the way, I've never seen the a box for hu-cards. How were they packaged?)

But usually it's near to impossible to bid on the Yahoo Japan auctions. You must use third party agents to manage your bids...
The Hu-cards come usually in standard CD cases adapted to fit a card instead a CD.

Bought a 'cheap' WSX once on yahoo, but with shipping costs and customers office fees it became a really expensive msx. I better bougth one here in Europe
Don't understand how mega sellers like Eskroto or Rklok can import their hard & software so cheap

I also bought t-R from japan via eBay and the customers office fees were somethin like 22% (a tax) of the total price of the pruduct (few hundred euros), so the fees are A LOT. ..At least here in finland.
I had a tip from friend who said it is easy to "cheat" on this by asking the seller to make two bills. Espesially easy when paying by paypal.
One bill for few euros, and another for the rest of the total price. Then just give to the customers office the smaller bill & repeipt so they'll make the taxes by that price.
This should work (here in finnland at least).

I know how much it hurts,i bought an expensive microphone for proffesional use in studio recordings from USA.

They called me you know "WHO" about tax issues.I had to pay about 200euros as tax.It sucked but i needed it and had to pay.This was the first and last time i ordered something out of europe without knowing anything about taxes and costs.After that i am very careful in my purchases.

Today i just received Snatcher.In excellent condition however there is a problem.I write protected the disks.And inserted cartridge and disk 1 in my msx,game loads but after some seconds a green screen appears and i have to wait for many minutes,after that again drive reads but the green screen appears.Is there something wrong?Can this disk be used on pal msx?My machine is a nms 8280.

It should work just fine on any MSX2 afaik...

Problem solved.Disks are ok.The cartridge unfortunately while it seems to be perfect,it needs to be pushed in the cartridge slot all the time if it is not then it does not fit properly and msx crashes,I will see what i can do to fix it.I loaded the game and everything seems to be ok while i pushed the cart in the slot.

Probably only the connector needs to be cleaned

Did you try it in the other cartridgeslot ? Can also help sometimes

You think so?Well it is the only cartridge that has this problem,other cartridges work fine,i will try to clean it though.The card works fine when pressed,Scc+ disk collection by konami has proper sound as well as Snatcher.

Clean the cartridge, not the slot!

How can i safely do that manuel?And if it is dirty then why does it work when i push it inside and keep it firmly with my hand?What would be the correct clean proccess?
