A flash light through the slots on a cart will be good enough 99% of the time.
And then only open it if it seems like it's not a match?

When you see someone selling multiple copies of the same game, like here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEO-GEO-MVS-KING-OF-FIGHTERS-2000-AUTHENTIC-SNK-/262206464965
What does that mean? Did they clean out an old arcade or something? Does this make it more likely they're legitimate copies or not?
It may mean that he/she had an arcade and is cleaning out. Very likely, since kof2000 is a common game, however be careful because games with fake labels (see the 3 carts with the same serial 002314) are sometimes boots. And kof2000 has its fair share of boots. For reference, the cart in the first pic, with the clear shell looks legit.
$1000?
Buy a consolized MVS system and a multicart. Use the leftover cash to buy whatever legit games you want after messing with the multicart. If you have a 161 in 1 and a 120 in 1 multicart you will be able to play 90% of the library on real hardware. By comparison, you could get a home cart system, Nam, Samurai Shodown 1 and 2, Magician Lord, and then the shitty common early games that nobody really plays but everyone has because they are cheap.
What about my "mixed collection" idea I mentioned in the post straight above? Is it crazy?
You totally just described my fledgling AES collection
