Hi I was wondering if these are actual oem shells.

I also was wondering if $225 is good for a The Legend Of Zelda 25th Anniversary Limited Edition Nintendo 3DS Console

If it says "OEM Original Quality" it's probably not OEM

#

If it was, it'd just say it was an OEM part

#

Not say that it is of the quality of an OEM part

#

I don't know for sure, but this is my take

#

I would also be skeptical of anyone claiming to sell OEM parts that isn't selling them from other dead units that they're parting out. I'm not aware of any OEM shell resellers and if they do, parting out dead consoles is the only way to acquire OEM shells as far as I'm aware

When I reached out seller said it was OEM and he doesnt stock aftermarket parts

#

I was wondering on a 2nd opinion because I cant spot things and Im just trying to repair my old childhood 3ds

#

Do you think that helps the case at all of it being oem?

I wouldn’t believe him personally

#

The only way that’s an OEM part is if it came from another 3DS

#

If you don’t care about it being OEM that’s a different story (if your original shell is trashed and you need a new one, then who really cares)
