Who does this

Every game goes through one pair of hands.

I have collected myself since 2018. I know what a real label looks like, whether a Pokémon save survives the console being switched off, and how to spot a fake EEPROM. That is why I test every game before it goes out the door.

Lenn HodesEnter (Overijssel), since 2019
Tested on real hardware
Save battery, cartridge label and whether the booklet is there. No “works as described” — it has been switched on here.
Six authenticity checks
Screw type, label print, memory chip, circuit board, weight and save test. Reproductions are a plague; they do not get through.
Shipped from Enter (Netherlands)
From a personal archive, not a dropshipping warehouse. PostNL with Track & Trace, all the way to Qatar.

All other countries3-8 business days · rate at checkout

Rates are based on the official PostNL rates (2026). Customs duty on parcels above QAR 1,000 is not included — see the rules below. There is no free shipping to Qatar: a parcel across the world always costs postage.

Ordering from Qatar — the rules

What you want to know before you buy: customs, console region, power, payment and returns — no small print.

Customs

Qatar is outside the EU and has no VAT. Personal parcels worth up to QAR 1,000 are free of customs duty; above that, Qatar charges 5% customs duty, which Qatar Post collects before delivery. It is not included in the price at checkout.

Will it play on my console?

Our games are European PAL editions. Consoles from several regions are sold in Qatar, and region-locked systems (3DS, Wii, Wii U, GameCube, N64, SNES, NES) only start a European game on a European console. Region-free systems play every edition: Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, DS, Switch, PS4 and PS5. Not sure about your console? Ask us in the chat.

Power & plugs

Consoles come with a European power supply (230 V); Qatar’s 240 V mains is fine for it. Only the plug differs: a travel adapter for the British-style Type G socket is all you need.

Payment

You pay in euros — Credit card or PayPal. Mollie does not process Qatari riyals; next to every price you see the approximate amount in riyals, and your card converts the euro amount at its own rate.

Returns

30 days to return, to our address in the Netherlands. Mark the customs form of the return parcel “returned goods”, so no Dutch import tax is charged.

Shipped from the Netherlands

  • Your order leaves our own stock in Enter, the Netherlands, and travels to you with PostNL — always tracked, so you know exactly where your parcel is.
  • Qatar is outside the EU and has no VAT. Personal parcels worth up to QAR 1,000 are free of customs duty; above that, Qatar charges 5% customs duty, which Qatar Post collects before delivery. It is not included in the price at checkout.
  • Not what you hoped for after all? Send it back within 30 days to our Dutch address — more generous than the 14 days the law requires.
Delivery time to Qatar6-13 business days

We ship from the Netherlands: your parcel crosses the world, so it takes longer and costs more than a domestic delivery. Qatar has no VAT, and personal parcels worth up to QAR 1,000 enter free of customs duty; above that, Qatar charges 5% duty, collected by Qatar Post before delivery — it is not included in the price at checkout.

Why does shipping abroad cost this much?

Inside the Netherlands a single game fits through the letterbox — €4.40, tracking included. That service stops at the border. Anything leaving the country goes with PostNL as an international parcel, which is a different and considerably more expensive service. That is where the €35.95 comes from: the border itself is not what costs money, the cheap service simply ends there.

That amount covers the PostNL rate to your country plus the packaging: bubble mailer or box, an antistatic sleeve for the cartridge, and tape. We never drop the tracking — on a parcel that crosses a border, shipping without proof of delivery is a risk for both of us.

Frequently asked from Qatar

Do you ship to Qatar?

Yes. Every order leaves our stock in Enter, the Netherlands, on the next working day and travels with PostNL, delivered by Qatar Post — always tracked to your door. Delivery time 6-13 business days. Qatar has no postal codes, so you can leave that field empty at checkout; a mobile number helps Qatar Post reach you.

What does shipping to Qatar cost?

€35.95 for 1-3 games and €53.95 for a console or 4+ items. That is the PostNL rate for an international parcel plus packaging; there is no free shipping to Qatar. You see the exact amount in your cart as soon as you choose Qatar — and that is exactly what you pay.

Will I pay VAT or customs duty?

Qatar has no VAT, so none is added. Personal parcels worth up to QAR 1,000 enter free of customs duty (General Authority of Customs); above that, Qatar charges 5% customs duty, which Qatar Post collects before delivery. It is not included in the price at checkout.

How can I pay from Qatar?

Through Mollie, a payment provider regulated by the Dutch Central Bank: Credit card or PayPal, and on your phone Apple Pay and Google Pay. Mollie does not process Qatari riyals, so you pay in euros — next to every price you see the approximate amount in riyals, and your card converts the euro amount at its own rate. The payment page appears in English.

Are the games authentic?

Every cartridge is personally tested and checked for authenticity before it goes online — label finish, product code, weight and a working save function, plus the security screw and the board inside on Game Boy cartridges. If you ever receive a fake from us: money back.

Do PAL games from the Netherlands work on my console in Qatar?

That depends on the console. Our games are European PAL editions, and consoles from several regions are sold in Qatar. Region-free systems play every edition: Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, DS, Switch, PS4 and PS5. Region-locked systems (3DS, Wii, Wii U, GameCube, N64, SNES, NES) only start a European game on a European console. Product pages state the region for every item; ask us in the chat if you are not sure.

Do the consoles work on Qatar power?

Yes. Consoles come with a European power supply for 230 V; Qatar’s 240 V mains is fine for it. Only the plug shape differs: a travel adapter for the British-style Type G socket is all you need, no voltage converter.

What about returns from Qatar?

You have 30 days to return your order — more generous than the 14-day EU legal minimum. Send us a message and we will sort it out together; the return goes to our address in the Netherlands. Mark the customs form “returned goods” so no Dutch import tax is charged. If something does not work, the return is on us.
