  1. I was wondering the same thing myself and i also theorize that it makes more sense that the rext was added after as opposed to removed, in an era where more description of the game on the cover was a positive (given lack of internet, media coverage etc.)
  2. I think it’s more related to human nature (people tend to flock to the best possible item, condition etc. And always on a quest to get better) rather than the item itself (game card figure... it doesnt really matter).
  3. Yep it is also my belief that some games (i will speak for snes and n64) get too tight in wata holders and it presses the corners slightly. They may jave changed the cases now (thats what i heard) but i do not know, and because of that im scared to send my wata to regrade at vga . as for the poll i collect nes wata (prefer the look of cases) and snes/n64 vga
  4. Couple recent adds. Ki gold is proving tougher than i initially thought in 90 or higher! and super DD displays exceptionally well. Dunno what dinged it but man do i love that beatemup!
  5. Some first print action! I’ll upgrade later. For now, really happy woth this local raw find!
  6. It’s the same game. Same damage etc. i’ll add to the confusion During the initial auction (15k one) some people posted on IG it was a reseal. Someone claimed in the comments they had bought it so i reached out to explain my situation with the 2 reseals i had bought. The guy claimed he « wouldn't grade it and bought it for his nephew(!), who is 6 (?!?!?) like wtf who would do that?! Then we see this listing from endzonesportscards, which is the same game, but his feedback doesnt correspond to the one who won the initial auction. So perhaps the game moved privately before hitting ebay again? now im really confused, and even more pissed that this resealed turd keeps turning onto unsuspecting buyers
  7. Those 2 are available if someone is interested
  8. Great response, however a collective thread of reseals and pointers to spot reseals would benefit the community but also benefit re-sealers in fixing their « mistakes », so it’s a double-edged sword...
  9. Yep. I hate to say it but it is a reseal. i know because i bought two zelda games from the same seller that ended up being verified at wata as reseals. They looked really good in pics, but felt a but off in hand. At least they were able to confirm quickly that they werent legit seals. Here are the pics. And if anyone has any info on yugi collectorz, or his real name daniel kilpatrick from kingsland,GA id appreciate it as he owes me 3500$ and wont respond to my messages anymore. He sells these reseals through alternate ebay accounts with low/no feedback. Be careful out there these seals fooled veteran collectors as well (not referring to myself obviously lol).
  10. One of my fav on the system! Soooo underloved:)
  11. I collect sealed games that i want, not because theyre « cool » but because they matter to me. I dont care about most BB/hangtabs so thats good for my wallet. whats less good is i grew up with lots of games that everybody else grew up with, and those quality titles for the platforms i collect for are getting erm..... expensive to say the least! i love getting a mint obscure game that nobody but me cares about for cheap too
  12. I sold this earlier this year opportunistically after one exact same copy sold on HA for what i considered a stupid amount. i didnt even think the grade was good so thought id just upgrade later on. It’s one of my favourite Game of all time, it has since doubled in value, And today i realize 9/A+ isnt that bad of a grade for a coveted title...!!! So not getting it back anytime soon . biggest regret since i started collecting.
  13. Some call it a passion. i call it an obsession. Don’t try it
  14. There used to be a sticker on the cello and afaik it was the only way to know st the store. Now that sticker is gone so im lost. Perhaps next time i go to the hospital i can bring it with . i’ve read somewhere that even the weight is not a good indicator (all over the ´lace for both versions). oh well its still a nice piece but its big and i have no way of properly display it lol. Should ‘ve thought this one through before buying!
  15. I actually asked my dentist to xray it today (LOL). But he couldnt do it as his xray only gives a very small pic (like 2teeth for example). it seems that both the genesis and snes cart would be vertical hence my on’y lead would be to measure the distance between the screes. Is that right?
  16. Anyone knows how to differentiate snes from genesis version without opening it? Im going to the dentist today so may ask him to xray it
  17. Hey man, i know that ryan main on facebook has an extra copy je just acquired. He’s also heavy_hitter_games on insta (unsure if he’s around here. may be worth a shot to contact him... good luck!
