  1. Need the joe n Mac 2 poster. Will purchase whole cib if needed. Also interested in a nice manual and cart
  2. you have been waiting for the 15 day submission since October? what does their website say about the status of the order? have you tried contacting them?
  3. this is a very real potential situation from their stand point and probably why they require to place a higher value/insurance on games they dont want to be liable for
  4. This is fine until a 50k item you declared was worth 100$ gets lost in the mail or damaged at their facility and you sue them for market value that can be approximated and proven with recent sales.
  5. i dont understand this. you hire them to grade your games based on condition, not tell you how much your games are worth.
  6. Was looking at a cart in a store the other day and looked very real to me until the store owner told me right before I purchased that while the game was original, they put a new label on it. Are there any things to look for when identify a reproduction label?
  7. I submitted games dec 5. Paid I think 65 per cib for 45 day turn around. Now I don’t see a 45 day option. And prices went up a lot. 110 for 15 says or 85$ for 60 Days. That’s quite a jump. Demand must be high. I wonder if they would ever discontinue cib grading. I believe someone who works there said it’s not very profitable for them
  8. Im seeing carts on ebay for sale with photos of the interior circuit board. Is there a resource I can check to see if its the right one? or how are you supposed to know if that board belongs with that cart? edit I found this resource https://snescentral.com/article.php?id=0650 https://snescentral.com/pcb.php?id=0650&num=0&side=front although im still unsure. the board in the photo looks correct in terms of layout of the circuitry but the manufactuer says toshiba which the one on snescentral does not.

  10. I think it’s been established here in a few threads that the time you pay for is an estimate and they almost never hit that target. At least lately
  11. Anyone have any tips on spotting fakes snes manuals? I think they have only gotten better from a few years ago where they were more obvious.
  12. I was under the impression that the fruit snacks manual was the first print of the made in Japan box. However I’ve seen a couple made in Mexico boxes with this manual (printed in Japan) together. In one case the owner claims he bought it brand new Years ago. Does any one know if they actually were released together at any point?
  13. looking to buy as close to mint as possible will pay very well sunset riders star fox super Mario kart super Mario all stars illusions or gaia super punch out
  14. Yes I have and so does everyone. This happens all the time in life. You trust professionals when you don’t have the knowledge, experience, or ability to physically see something. You trust the mechanic when he says parts under your hood need replacing. Doctors when they give you a diagnosis etc Sealed grading also implies your trusting the grading company. How do you know that the contents are inside and that it wasn’t a fake resealed box? Your argument main argument seems to be that they are human and make mistakes. That’s true but they don’t make mistakes often enough to completely throw out their judgement and expertise. Regardless of my input or your opinion, the fact is the market currently disagrees with you and has for a long time. Comic book grading where you can’t see the inside page condition or artwork has long been successful. Sealed grading and cib grading have taken off so much so that the market is large enough for 2 main players, one of which has so many orders currently they had to put a hold on taking in further revenue to satisfy the demand.
