Is it safe to travel with sealed games to another country?
Mijael replied to Mijael's topic in Sealed & Graded Collecting
The games i ordered from Brazil where shipped with DHL. Last year i sent a game to miami via DHL and the buyer says it was opened . When i ship something more expensive i use UPS and now they opened my game...I think its not the shipping company the problem is the country from where i am shipping. As another member said before goverment has a policy to open randomly open packages coming from south of the border to search for ilegal substances. -

Mijael replied to Mijael's topic in Sealed & Graded Collecting
Yes i think that`s the reason they open the games . Sadly Mexico is know now internationally for a drug country . They probably don`t open every game and i just had very bad luck but i can`t take this risk anymore . I will have to travel if i want my games to be graded -
No its lost ... it wasn`t very expensive ($400) but i also lost a great opportunity to resell it .

No... i purchased the game here at Mexico (players choice) . I used UPS but my package was stuck 5 days in a warehouse at US . I think that's where they probably opened it.

Does someone here has experience travelling with sealed games to another country? I ask this because its the 2nd time in the month my sealed games are opened by customs . First in Brazil now in USA. I feel really frustrated and i think the only safe way to send something to grade is to travel myself with 3 or 4 games but i am not sure if they will be opened in airport security...

Just got news for my warpzone order Hi Mijael,Hope you are well. The game on order #: N64 Goldeneye, was submitted as a sealed game but is actually CIB (Complete in Box).We can either open the game and grade it as CIB with the necessary upcharges for CIB grading or return the game to you as-is. Please let us know which you would like to do.Grade CIB - If you'd like the game graded CIB, please send payment to our PayPal account at submissions@watagames.com. Please add a note with the order number and CIB upcharge. The upcharge for CIB grading is $85 per game. If you choose to upgrade to CIB please reply to this message with a copy of the receipt of payment to PayPal.Return As-Is - If you would like the game(s) back, you will be refunded the total you paid per each, less a $15/each evaluation fee and return shipping.Please let us know how you would like to proceed.Thank you,The Wata Team I guess my game was opened in customs ....

I recently sent them a N64 game for a Warpzone order. Game was Scanned February 11 , still no news --- if the Warpzone service really works it should be shipped by March 09

I won a game from their first video game auction i think it was 2 years ago.. Very good deal but they tried to charge me $200 usd to ship me that game to Mexico. At the end they charged me $150 . They also take to much time to ship the items after you pay. It can take 2 weeks or more.

I love the VGA slab much simpler and elegant presentation than Wata

Going forward, starting today (Feb. 1, 2022), please ensure all packages sent to WATA use this address. Packages that are sent to the old WATA address in Denver will still be accepted but may have delays in processing and receiving. Thank you for making note of the change. i sent them a package last week to Denver , they will receive it tomorrow but now with delay..

Sega Genesis sealed John Madden Football

Any one here got that Madden?

Agree and probably the people who pay more get better grades from time to time

Btw someone told me yesterday that after 11 months he just received his PS2 games from Wata. Wata customer service replied me last week that they "still dont get the DVD parts" and they don´t have a an estimated time. I believe they already have the DVD parts but they don´t have enough parts to fulfill all the orders...

I just paid $220 to grade a N64 using warpzone . It seems its the only service that actually works . I just shipped the game so let`s see what happens

Ok guys 2022 update ! Hi Mijael,Thank you for contacting Wata Games. I apologize for the confusion, we recently have implemented changes in the order processing that allow us to show grades before the order ships. We’ve refined our quality assurance process to enable us to do this, so this is great news for collectors. Rest assured the data is accurate, although some grades may still be subject to change prior to shipping out. The grades that may change represent a very small percentage of all orders, so feel confident that what you will see in grade viewing will be likely be your final grade. Unfortunately, we have run into shortages and delays for cases that accommodate your games. Once they are in, we will be shipping all held orders as quickly as we can. At this point, we do not have an ETA for the cases, but we are coordinating daily with our suppliers to get them delivered as soon as possible. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your continued patience. You will receive an email with tracking info when the package ships. Please let me know if you have any additional questions.Take care,The Wata Team So still no DVD cases and they dont have ETA for them ...
