  1. So I have the Barkley version (top photo). The back of the box, underneath “made in Japan”, the paragraph line is straight. I find it interesting though that Heritage recently listed one with “Majerle version” and that paragraph line is indented (bottom photo). If you go back to their older auctions, they’re listing that same “Majerle version” as early production. However, the later production version is the one that swapped Barkley for Majerle. Whoever bought those heritage “early productions” got effed because they’re holding the later Majerle version.
  2. I’m a lawyer and it’s definitely not fraud.
  3. Did you all put Wata in jail yet or are they still out there on the streets grading video games and ruining lives?
  4. I sold a sealed vhs Batman 1989 for $1100 in 2021
  5. This didn’t happen with only video games. People were spending 6-7 figures on modern sports cards, comic books, vhs tapes, sealed G1 iPhones FFS. This is where the whole “wata and ha” completely falls apart in the bigger picture. It was ALL collectible markets. Video games are not special! Wata and HA didn’t make Timmy poindexter drop $60,000 on a Trevor Lawrence rookie card.
  6. Point is, the prices went up across all collectibles (not just video games) when everyone got free money. And a lot of people who suddenly have lots of money tend to not know how to use it wisely. Once the free money dried up, the steady but steep drop in price is no surprise. There’s definitely a sting bugging some people who had some of these titles selling for tens of thousands and now they’re angry because they held on to theirs for too long and missed the opportunity to sell. I guess if that were me I would want to sue somebody too, but ultimately it would be my own fault. As for the speculators who bought these games at the inflated prices, as Ray once famously said on trailer park boys “it’s the way she goes”.
  7. Do you have a source link that shows a gloss sticker sealed 9.4 A++ super mario for nes selling for less than $100k since then?
  8. How’s your lawsuit going Opty? Can you give me the name of your big shot lawyer so I can sue PSA because nobody wants to pay $1,000 for my Kenny Powers rookie card anymore? Thanks bro!
  9. mArKeT MaNiPuLaTiOn! LaWsUiT fRaUd The real fraud is the video game collecting content creators defrauding many of the people on this board that seem to worship them rather than understanding everyone had limitless government forgivable PPP loans and the influx of new free money was on a scale the world has never seen before. That money hit every single collectibles market and some of us have been trying to tell all of you that. I’m glad this message board is preserved in the video game collecting canon because it makes for an amazing read. You should be suing the content creators for fraud and manipulating your feelings because that’s the real crime that happened here.
  10. Tag me whenever your witch hunt puts a witch in jail. Other than that, you and Lieutenant Pat the Angry Video Gamer can keep the conspiracy content coming. Maybe sell a few pillows while you’re at it!
  11. Oh look, 45 comments of NOTHING HAPPENING other than Pat the nes punk collecting hundreds of thousands of views of the go-to content when things are slow. Rent must be due!
  12. The “play as Barkley” version of NBA Jam for snes has officially been marked as rare.
  13. Does anyone know anything about the specifics of the “play as Barkley” version of NBA Jam for snes? For example, on a sealed copy, how do you know it’s a Barkley version? Also, does anyone know how common the Barkley version is for CIB? Few if any of the listings on eBay are ever specific enough to mention if it’s a Barkley or Majerle version, but I’ve only seen Majerle. Thanks
  14. I wasn’t entirely serious with that comment. But it is possible to link the two. Baseball card collecting has bottomed out, it’s now primarily a wealthy persons hobby. Card collector’s desire for rarity in serial numbered cards and low graded populations has transcended to video games. Many of these high dollar buyers are rare card and comic book collectors. It doesn’t stop at games though (VHS, cassette tapes, vinyl, laserdisc), it’s going to be all printed media as it all will soon become extinct.
  15. 9. Three times more than SM64. But if you want to count only gem mint, then 3 mantles are gem mint, equaling that of SM64. Therefore, SM64 pricing = 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle. This theory proves that SM64 prices are indeed true and accurate so we can now confidently say that myth has been busted.
