How we filter

Every feed has its own filter, tuned by hand for this one game. Before any change goes live, those filters are tested against thousands of real eBay listing titles. Every night, each feed is checked against every other deal page in its category, so a listing for a different game that slips in gets flagged and fixed instead of quietly shown.

Of the 218 listings we observed for this game in the last 30 days, we filtered out 206 of 218 (~94%) for quality reasons. The remaining 12 are what we'd actually surface.

  • 194 matched a bootleg / out-of-scope keyword
  • 10 shipped from a region we exclude
  • 1 seller positive-feedback percentage too low
  • 1 seller had too few feedback ratings

What the feed excludes

An eBay search for Dragon Quest V (DS) returns far more than the game itself: controllers, T-shirts, strategy guides, imports and repro carts all mention it in their titles. These are the 115 terms we filter out to keep this feed to the real thing. A listing whose title contains any of them never reaches the feed, the price table or an alert. Many look unrelated to Dragon Quest V (DS) because they are: that's the noise.

Dragon Quest V: collector & reseller spec sheet

  • Release & carrier: Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride is the North American Nintendo DS release from Square Enix. Check that the product code on the label matches the US release; the Japanese release is a different regional edition.
  • Saves: progress is stored on the cartridge, so a tested working cart matters more than the box.
  • Print variants: a Japanese budget reprint exists, but this page tracks US copies only. For US copies, confirm from the listing photos what you are getting; the profile does not separate print runs.
  • Listing traps seen while tuning: the game appears under its Japanese titles ("Bride in the Sky", "Tenkuu no Hanayome") and as multi-game Dragon Quest sets, and strategy guidebooks reuse the game name. The feed rejects most of these, but read the title closely on anything priced far from the rest. Sellers sometimes list graded sealed copies, which sit far above ordinary sealed asking prices. Not to be confused with Dragon Quest IV or Dragon Quest IX.

Buying Nintendo DS games: what to check by condition

These checks apply to every Nintendo DS cartridge. The item notes above cover what is specific to this game.

Loose

  • Compare the label, shell color and front/back markings against a photo of a known-authentic cart. Repro labels are often glossier, blurrier or slightly off-color.
  • Ask for a photo of the board or the back of the cart. An opened shell is not automatically bad (battery swaps are normal), but it should be disclosed.
  • If the game saves to a battery, ask whether the save holds. Old save batteries fail with age regardless of what the listing says, so budget for a replacement.

CIB (complete in box)

  • Confirm the box, manual and plastic case and cover art are all shown in the photos, not just listed in the title.
  • Check that the box and manual are the same region and print as the cart. Mixed-and-matched "complete" copies are common.
  • Box wear (crushing, tears, sticker residue) moves price far more than the cart does. Judge it from photos, not from the word "mint".

Sealed & graded

  • For a graded copy, look the certification number up on the grading company's own site and confirm the photos match the slab you are buying.
  • For an ungraded sealed copy, compare the wrap and seal pattern against a known factory-sealed example. Resealing is common, and a reseal on a loose game is worth a loose price.
  • Ask for photos of every side, the seams and any price stickers. Refusing extra photos on a sealed listing is a red flag on its own.
