Sweet Rarebucky. Maybe you wished you had bought more?

rarebucky · by rarebucky on Fri Oct 24, 2008 2:09 pm

Of course, but I also wish I had more money Smile

Rarebucky- are you going to add some pics of your NES games as well? Would love to see them!

rarebucky · by rarebucky on Wed Nov 05, 2008 2:22 pm

Yes...problem is 60% of my NES collection is in storage...

Updated with my VGA 85 Earthbound! cheers

Oh wow, an unopened Earthbound. Very nice!

Nice! How did they grade it? Im guessing they opened it to examine the contents and such, allmost like what you do for systems.

rarebucky · by rarebucky on Sat Nov 22, 2008 5:51 pm

Exactly. I obviously opened it once to make sure it looked new myself (with gloves of course Smile

) and then sent it in. They look at every single there to make sure it is all unused and factory new.

If you insert it in console once or twice and play it without saving - you will never tell if it's new or not. There will be no marks on teh cartridge contacts as well.
You can believe whatever you want to believe in of cause.. Smile

People should have dreams to dream. Very Happy

yobo · by yobo on Sat Nov 22, 2008 7:24 pm

Of course you could tell DS. Dream on then!

Dark Sol · by Dark Sol on Sat Nov 22, 2008 7:34 pm

Yup. I dream about a factory sealed earthbound. Not just a mint one sent to dumb VGA who don't care and don't know about what they grade. Very Happy

Well I remember 2 years ago when CIB Earthbound was going for $100 there was a guy on ebay with a case of them (4 I believe). He wanted $200 each and I tought it was too much. He then sold all of them to 1 guy who later resold each for $350-$550. Even 1 this year.

Dark Sol · by Dark Sol on Sat Nov 22, 2008 7:53 pm

speaking about Earthbound.
I got mine from castlevania4ever couple of years ago. It is mint and unused. All in plastic packets. I don't see any fingerprints on the cart and the guide is unscratched and unbent. hmm... maybe mine is also new? lol!

rarebucky · by rarebucky on Sat Nov 22, 2008 9:56 pm

Send it in to VGA and then you will know! No one will pay "new" prices for this game unless it is authenticated as new. And yes, VGA does know what they're doing FYI.

Dark Sol · by Dark Sol on Sat Nov 22, 2008 10:14 pm

I don't want to send them anything, nor this game. I really don't think their knowledge in sealed videogames is good enough for it. They just look at the external damage. And that's all. They won't even guess a professional reseal.
