But yeah, short of replacing before selling or adding a lengthy list of nonsense like "Batteries may fail to hold saves or cause other oddities until replaced. Do not use while driving. Do not use genitals to remove carts from electrified consoles." it's hard. I am honest with people I buy from on Ebay if there's a problem or something that's excusable, but I don't sell there because it's even easier to get screwed.

Re: What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?
Obviously the answer is to remove the batteries and sell without. I mean I doubt any of us report the batteries in game carts when sendig the USPS like we're supposed to, are we?

Robin Williams suicide is terrible.

Re: What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?
As for eBay it is a hard place to sell if you are just a little guy. There isn't really much in the way of seller protection and since there is no way for sellers to leave negative feedback for buyers you never know who you are dealing with since all none selling buyers have 100% positive feedback.
About the only way you can get a feel for what a buyer will be like is by looking at the feedback they have left for others
.
That is why I went back to just selling/trading here a lot less stress and a lot more fun
