Yeah I was asking for the exact seller. I ordered a few things from French sellers on eBay in the past, and they all arrived to me in 3 days (I'm in Spain) except for one seller that sent items via PostNL's Paris branch in order to reduce shipping costs, and these took 2-3 weeks to arrive. I'd wager there are more sellers that do something similar. Thought I'd share this info in case you were considering to send the cartridges you have before receiving that French Ruby, because I think it might be a good idea if Nintendo is likely to stop accepting carts soon.

Which seller did you buy French Ruby from?

Can't see it either.

This is because VBA uses system clock as RTC, while the cartridge RTC starts at 01/01/2000. The battery also goes dry within 10 years, thus resetting the clock back to 01/01/2000 when you change it. The save has a timestamp and saving on VBA will set it to your computer's current date/time, so the date on the save will be a few years beyond the cartridge RTC's date. Use a save editor to compare the timestamps before and after using the save on VBA and you'll see what I mean. The same glitch happens when your RTC battery goes dry and you replace it. I believe you can get around this by simply disabling RTC on VBA before launching the game.
