Best thing to do...keep both, update one of them to the Turbo edition and replace both labels...winning!I got MS2 replacement label from Xian Xi (thanks my friend!)
I bought another MS2 cart with damaged label..............what do you think?

If the label is gross, I'll replace it. Scratched serials alone is not enough reason for me. The carts Liquid Snake has pictured there look fine to me, so I wouldn't fuck with them. Holo label w/ scratched serials > repro label.
Holo label w/ scratched serials > repro label.
Same as everybody, I only replace filthy/unreadable ones. However I also cover Japanese ones with English labels. Do not damage teh Jap one, I print the English on regular paper, put it over the jap and put transparent tape over it. It looks ghetto but it works for me, and the original label is still there intact.
I don't think I've ever bought an MVS cart with a Japanese label. If I did, I don't have it anymore.
Jenna Jameson was overrated.
I can say with confidence...she sucked
Scratched serials are fine by me, I kinda like the "history" behind why serials were scratched in the first place. I have no problem with Jap labels. I have a kinda photographic memory, so even if I can't read Japanese, I can recognize the characters and identify each game.
That being said, I would never buy a cart with a totally shit label nor a replacement label.
Pretty much this. I've only got one cart with scratched serials, it's a Last Blade and the label is holographic so there's no way I would replace it. Actually the majority of my collection is Japanese labels, I just use a post it to identify it if I can't already based on the label itself.
