Has anyone ordered any of the replacement manuals from nintendo.com's online store?

I've been thinking about picking a few up for some old NES and SNES loose carts that I have, but they state that they "may be photocopies".  I'd rather not order if it's not going to be an original.

Anyone have any luck with this?

I haven't, but I'm sure you'd be happy if you took a risk and got a stadium events manual. =) How much are each manual by the way?

Well, they don't have every manual on the page for purchase.  They had... maybe 100-150 between all of the Nintendo systems.  The prices ranged from about $1.50 - $2.50 each.  Not a huge risk to take, but I didn't want to order like 20 manuals and have them all be photocopies.   :-/

I know of a few people that ordered from there and all they got were well done photo copies.

I have ordered from them twice.  All I received was photocopied manuals.  They are nice to have if you just want to see the manuals, but from a collecting stand point, a complete waste of money.

You might luck out on GCN and N64 manuals.
SNES and NES especially handheld systems are probably all just photocopies.
