Would you rather have a dead mint CIB
 
           or a 7/10 Sealed game?

(I'd go sealed personally)

    CIB for sure. However, I'd rather have a 10/10 sealed image.

    If I had a loose copy, then sealed. Otherwise I'd go CIB. These games need to be played!

    I'd open the sealed game anyway, so it'd definitely be CIB.

    Let's answer this in a better way - If only 2 copies of a game exist, one sealed 7/10, or one mint 10/10, which would you own?



    Personally, I would want the Mint copy. Just because it has a layer of plastic over it, doesn't mean its the holy grail.



    However, if the above was not the case, and real rarities and values come into play, my answer would change. If I had a choice between a mint CIB SE, or a sealed SE 7/10, Id take the sealed, sell it, then offer a bounty for a Mint one, then take the extra cash generated to buy some more minty CIB goodness image

    CIB

    I'd like to play the game on my nes!

  • nothingface023nothingface023
    I prefer CIB so I can still play them. Of course, you could always have a sealed copy and a loose cart.....

    I've never understood the appeal of a sealed game if it isn't mint. May as well open it and enjoy it. I'd rather take the mint one personally.

    sealed.

    If you answered CIB, you failed math.

    I think it depends on why you collect sealed.

    If youre doing it for the prettiest copy you can get, then yes you are correct.

    If you collect to have a untouched virgin, then all virgins don't have to be pretty, I mean look at Tusk

    Really? Perfect dark for 64 i dont see a difference? image

    And he put which you would rather own, not sell for $$$.
  • MoeDownMoeDown
    both.
  • maximus_cleanmaximus_clean
    ^ hahahaha, Tusk ain't so bad!
  • the_wizard_666the_wizard_666
    Thing is, if a 7/10 sealed copy is only 7/10 due to damage to the seal itself and not the box, isn't it more worth it to take the sealed copy and open it, thus turning it into a 9/10+ CIB? You don't lose "value" and it's easier to sell a mint CIB for market prices than a sealed game with damage to the plastic. Just a thought...



    And no, I didn't fail math, I just rarely pay market prices for a sealed game, and when I do it doesn't stay sealed for long. Stinger was the exception, not the rule image

    well, if you put it this way....

    Tracking ebay, I see CIB's and sealed sell for the same price. Unless, you are stating something else?
