Hi everyone, first time poster here but love collecting games. I recently got a new shelf and have gone through my collection and noticed i have some real good stuff still factory sealed. Xenosaga I and Xenosaga III, Baiten kaitos origins, and resident evil 4 premium edition for playstaion 2 albeit with damage to the plastic wrapper. Do you guys think those would be worth getting graded? Does any one have experience with getting games graded? |

Graded games are an enormous scam. Putting some plastic around it and slapping a number on it suddenly makes it worth 5x more...sure.... |

I don't have any experience with having items graded, but, in recent weeks, there has been a lot of unfavorable news regarding conflicting interests from organizations such as Wata Games who grade gaming items. Personally, I would say just to invest in quality packaging to protect items among your collection. |

I've never been one to do it, personally, but there's no denying the selling power graded items have in those markets. So I don't see why video games would be any different. |

Grading video games is a scam. Just keep your stuff as is. https://youtu.be/rvLFEh7V18A |
