Has anyone ever bought a VGA graded item?

NeoSneth · Jan 20, 2013

E-gouge is flooded with this shit now, and I have to wonder what kind of people would buy this crap.

ng.com has had its share of overpriced games, so the money is out there.

I can replicate almost any type of shrinkwrap, y folds, etc. Seals and all. I'm guessing half this sealed crap is not original.

Sometimes i want to track down a game, and all i get are VGA graded items for $300

I have seen this myself and seen a Slim PS2 asking over $1000, it's only going to get worse.

vgs is ruining the hobby.

Video grading is for non AES big tymers. They just want to feel like they have something to tell someone else they have the others do not.

I hope people aren't really this retarded.

I have used their company AFA toygrader for action figures but I dont think I would use the VGA service as grading video games doesnt make much sense.

Brianstoys catalog use to have tons of VGA games in it.

I admire your gesture but you don't go into business to keep things affordable. You should register as charity if you want to do that.

actually i did go into business to keep things affordable. i was fed up with shitty sellers and gougers.

while there is profit in there for me (it IS a business after all), my prices tend to be among the lowest around. but thanks for your feedback anyway.

Do you have a website where i may view your wares?

Nah...that's not true. I've always kept my prices affordable without gouging and have made thousands over the years doing it. Karma/love for the game goes a long way brother...

I am a greedy s.o.b always looking for new ways to gouge my customers. I don't sell games though. If I sold games I guess you would have to keep it within reason as you are dealing with collectors who know what the price should be.

I don't think she is gay, I just think she is a bitch that no one would poke.

Graded games are for videogame collectors who don't actually like videogames.
This reminds me of the comicbook-collector's market-bubble bullshit of the 90's.

Yea, that crap makes no sense, why even take games from people that would play them? Or books that people would actually read? bah, I give up.

And we all know what happened because of that...we almost saw the death of the comic book industry which to this date has not recovered fully from that.

Has anyone ever bought a VGA graded item?
