Franmotard | 79 Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Got my hands in one of my childhood favourites It is a shame the seal has some scratches, althought it has no holes or any big flaws on it, I guess this is an A, any chance of an A+? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davetheshrew | 14 Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 Was going through my ps2 games on a shelf earlier and I had a copy of nfs carbon sealed, I pulled the game out next to it and the sticker on it caught the seal and tore it open lol, tip for future, dont store sealed games next to non sealed games with stickers on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No seal on nes consoles, No I didnt open it, the person that sold it to me lifted the poly to display that everything was untouched and made the photo, he placed it back on and closed it, didnt touch any insides. Now I have it here, its pretty good for the most part, Im never going to open it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just lost 80% of the value by opening it to look inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soon as it arrived it went straight into a box protector. The way I see it what was done to this console and what happened here (oof) is a big difference, no items were touched, moved or breathed on, however its subjective and I agree its opened, but I personally still consider it 'new'. Also, on a lesser note, If I sent any new nes console to one of the big three graders, to my albeit limited knowledge they open it and grade the inside also, Ive seen a couple of reports before, they grade the box and internals and they are CiB not 'sealed'. I could be wrong and totally hold my hands up if thats the case but Ive definitely seen grading reports showing this.

And CIB WATA, of course, though they don't grade consoles yet. And for the former they have to be verified unplayed/unused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mentioned the box was opened for the first time for the photo you posted so you made it sound like you opened it to take the photo. So that means the person that bought it off you ruined tens of thousands of dollars by opening it to simply show you it had never been opened. That's kind of odd. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you go back and read his post please? He clearly states that he is the one who bought it and the seller opened it to take a picture. Seems like you’re unnecessarily shitting on the guy for sharing a piece of his collection he’s excited about. Granted your comment about being able to know if it has been opened or not is valuable knowledge, you said it in a backhanded way and didn’t even tell him how you can know if it’s been opened.. @davetheshrewif you look at the back of the opening flaps on the box, you’ll be able to tell if it’s been opened if there’s a crease in the cardboard from it being bent back. You’ll most likely be able to compare the opened & unopened sides and see the difference. Edited April 15, 2022 by retro.magnus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
