For some reason, in my mind, I always thought that condition wouldn't matter as much with sealed games as it does in other hobbies. With baseball cards or comics, the condition/grade is more the ACTUAL object. In sealed games it's just the seal and the box, not the actual game itself. I realize it's kinda semantics or whathaveyou, but when the sealed game hobby was just blossoming I always assumed the condition wouldn't matter as much as it does for cards, comics, or coins.
Comics and cards are almost valued higher exponentially as the grade goes up, especially in the uber high grades. Do you think this rule will hold true for sealed games in the future or will the differences in value not be as large?
