    Might hurt the seal grade a bit if your grading WATA, but the number grade should be solid. Looks like a good condition box. Anyways, if you're going to keep this particular sealed game regardless, you don't have to worry about the grade (as long as it's not tragically bad). It's not like you're planning on selling it. It sounds like it'd be more for preservation purposes at this point. And I think sealed games just look fresher when they're slabbed

    Yeah, and I should've approached this more as a question. How do you tell? I know about flap wear to see if it's been open, but if it's a fake box, there probably wouldn't be any. This game in particular is just so easy to fake. I'm sure they can get detailed looks at color bleeding, etc. Also, I get it's a double edged sword spreading info about verification techniques. Not like I can drop 40 g on a game anyways, but I've been hunting a CIB of this for some time and it's frustrating.

    I'm just curious how WATA can safely verify some of these non H-Seam seals, especially on a game that has shitty cardboard to begin with. I know every seal type can be faked, but wouldn't this just be way easier? Not discounting this authenticity, just wondering how someone could even make this purchase feeling sure about it. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Zombies-Ate-My-Neighbors-Super-Nintendo-SNES-NEW-SEALED-WATA-Graded-RARE-VARIANT-/284114849242?_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49292

    Yeah, guess I'm confused. These are the only ones I see anywhere for 5 screw even, but haven't dug that deep

    Cool. Never noticed that before

    This?

    Did the daytime rad racer box variant always come with a blue text manual? Just got my banged up daytime box today and want to make it whole

    I was literally just thinking about this today. That game weighs like 5 lbs CIB... I hate opening it because there's too much shit to not mess up.

    Sounds like similar verbiage to first posting. At least this time it says reseal. But what, am I supposed to believe this guy turned right around and wants to sell at a loss? ... Still sketchy. Maybe they laundered what they wanted to from it and now really just want to sell

    The resolution isn't great on my phone, but do those say 89? I don't know much about chip date codes... And less about the ones pictured in the first image...

    This is interesting. I'm in the position now where any Pokemon Yellow would fill the void I need filled in my collection, but unfortunately for myself I really like first releases I'm assuming long-run it won't matter, because I'll probably end up basing my purchase/trade on gradable condition... But it's still good to know why there are steep price differences between them.
  22. 3rdStrongestMole
    OK, I am going to be hunting one of these down soon, but I know nothing about gameboy games. Are the differences in the Es just about release date? Thanks

    Wtf. This account looks relatively unused over the last year. Worse yet, no disclaimer like the other one had saying not verified by VGA and what not. At least it's unsold, but I'm sure it will pop up again before too long
  24. 3rdStrongestMole
    That's an awesome grab, especially at a brick and mortar. Rare to find that these days for sure out in the wild
  25. 3rdStrongestMole
    Looks great regardless! Those high graded boxes are always nice display pieces
