they suspiciously look new. And the same seller has many other "promo" shirts in the same new like condition?

The tees are new with fold creases? The tags appear just sewn on. 

That’s why I avoid shirts like this.  Always suspicious of repros being done and not original.

Yeah, don't know. He has a lot of odd stuff... EPROMs from old EPROM carts, etc. I guess he could be faking vintage items...

I'm not too familiar...Is the PAL version really mislabeled to say "Use with Paddle controllers"?


Alot of Atari Corp games had the wrong controller info
Pengo also had a 1987 release date

Even VHS tapes get graded

I want to know if they grade only on appearance or also functionality.  What happens if the tape gets eaten during evaluation?  I really despise these ratings services.

What if the disc pops out of the holder inside and gets loose and scratched?

People must think there are a lot of fools out there, or just a couple of fools with a lot of money.

 

The concern about the loose DVD in the case is a problem in general, but these cardboard fronts rarely have that problem as there is no empty space between the DVD and the cover.

Soooooooooo I think that is kinda goofy too and 10k is redonkulous but as someone with a big media collection...screeners/promos and early releases do have collectible interest to SOME (normally big franchise fans) that a standard release never will.

 

Movie collecting is a BIG thing nowadays too....I am SURE you will be seeing Scream Factory or Vinegar Syndrome slipcover titles (yes, there are SLIPCOVER collectors, and they consider it vry srs bzns) slabbed at some point.

I throw slipcovers away.  Useless to me.  But, everyone who collects is happy I do.

 

I currently own just over 3,000 DVDs and BluRays.  Mind, I am not collecting for the value of the media nor its attractiveness as collectable, and some titles are damn near impossible to get and extortion-rate when you find them.  I rip them to my Plex server and put the media in storage.

My man! Now that is a big media collection. I don't even have a third of that.

 

I am slipcover neutral. If it's there, fine. But it's never added anything in my mind.

 

Every check out Hamiltonbook.com? Neat place to find some last chance blus.
