My first foray into Sealed NES games!! :)
Hey guys, finally picked up my first 2 sealed NES games, from Rarebucky on eBay, who I think frequents these forums as well. Don't have them in hand, but can't wait! I've been meaning to get into this for a while

But. . . . .
You've turned to the dark side!
is that a record sale on a sealed Metroid?
Wow, really? I saw a bunch listed around $350, and this one looks to be in great shape. Also, I saw that that VGA copy went for $575, so I figured $280 was reasonable.
For a non VGA graded one it may be. A VGA 85 went for $575 recently.
that's what i was thinking - derf. for some reason i thought these two were graded by VGA
Fun game too...open er' up!
Nice stuff!

Haha, nah, I'm keeping these ones sealed up. I already own these and about 125 other loose NES cartridges. See, I come from comic collecting and it seems to be pretty similar in ways. There's more debate over here about having games graded because, in my opinion, this is a relatively new hobby. In the comic world, there's much less debate. You can own a high grade copy of a comic and keep it "slabbed" and have a beater copy or reprint to read. That's why I am not against having games graded or keeping them sealed. There are plenty of options to play the game without having to break the seal on a nice sealed copy straight outtta the 80's! My 2 cents!
