The product images on Amazon are in German, but looks like it's a listing error as someone in Australia left a negative review after receiving an English language product.

      • Sure, but it's a German product, with German product pics, with someone showing a pic of it in German writing. I was just providing valid info for other OzBargainers :)

        I guess it's being sold on Amazon AU so might be English lol

        • You must be new to Amazon listing errors :)

          • @HomeAlone: Haha maybe, but I do own one of the $55.00 Samsung 990 Pro 1Tbs….so i'm no Amazon/Ozb noob.

            Explain to me a bit more then what you know that i'm missing?

            • @Dvbargain: When you see a foreign ASIN reused, check the local reviews to see what people in Australia are saying.

    Normally I would say if it is shipped by Amazon AU it’s English, but in this case I’m not so sure. They have been selling the German version shipped by Amazon Germany for $6-$7 for the longest time. These might be all the returns from people who mistakenly bought the German version :)

    Too bad it doesn’t have boosters. Once I mistakenly got a German version and it had the Magikarp, well same card just a weird name. But it’s really annoying that they sell so many German pokemon products without clearly stating it.

  • just saw same product on ebay $6.99 aus seller too

    • They are one of many sellers on eBay who just drop ship from Amazon. They will purchase the item on Amazon and send it to your address via free prime shipping.

      Feedback

      • wow, is that even a thing? all that hassle for an extra ~$1 seems like a lot of risk.

        • +1

          Yeah, eBay is full of it. It often comes up on Amazon deals, it can trick people into thinking the Amazon deal isn't that cheap because it is on eBay for not that much more, not realising that eBay listing is just the Amazon item jacked up and dropped shipped.

          They are doing this on a mass scale, they have almost 10,000 items listed. You will see a lot of bad feedback for non fulfillment etc, for when they get caught out selling and item that already sold out on Amazon.

          • @hamza23: so how do they keep track of pricing? would assme that the price fluctuates even higher than their ebay price.

            • +1

              @godofpizza: Yeah good question, there must be some type of price tracking script like price tracking sites use.

  • Kids won’t care about the German Language and for $4 neither do I

  • Bought this a while back (much cheaper now!) and it came in English. YMMV

  • I have bought for my son's bday next month. will report back on the language

    • damn, mine got lost in transit!

    Just got the three I ordered. All were in English. I ended up receiving 2 Houndoom EX decks and 1 Melmetal EX deck.

      Nice! I bought one despite my scepticism

  • $42 now?

    • Amazon AU stock sold out now. The $42 one is from Amazon Germany.

    English, copped the houndoom deck. win

    • same. had melmetal sticker but actual houndoom deck. english

  • +1

    English, Melmetal and Houndoom received. Winner winner.

    • Same here

  • Got mine just now. Was English Houndoom Ex though and not Melmetal.
    Sounds like this is a win based on all your comments?

  • ordered 5, all English Houndoom EX. Wanted at least a Melmetal as one of my fave characters but oh well.

    • Why would you buy 5? They are all the exact same cards.

      • I have young kids and these are great presents for the million birthday invites my kids get invites to :)

        Im a collector so keep one and gift the rest.
