does this mean factory sealed?

Robin Mihara · January 2009

im pretty sure its not factory sealed. there's a tab to hang it on the top, and that tab is under the plastic. i'd show a pic of what i received, but i misplaced my camera. now that i look at the listing, i guess you could take the wording as new and sealed, but could be sealed by owner? should i make a stink? it was 5 bucks shipped so i didnt pay too close of attention.

Damn, I see your dilemma. Honestly, I'd probably just let it go myself as it didn't say "factory sealed". I always make sure to ask about the seal before bidding. Unless of course you are the first set of eyes on something with a cheap buy it now... then it's buy and ask questions later

That game is part of the majesco re-release it is legit there are thousands of those still sealed. There was about seven games that are still in massive sealed quantities.

dudes got a 100% rating and i dont want to be the guy who pops his cherry. ill wait for the camera and show you a pic top get a opinion on if its FS. teach me not to read carefully.....

if it is in fact, factory sealed and just part of a massive re-release, then id be 100% satisfied.

this is my 1st time really shopping on ebay, and im afraid i went a little too far.

why would someone reseal a $4 game?

Robin Mihara · January 2009

good point, you have to see this though. the lines are far from straight.

pats1717 · January 2009

lol yeah hundreds of people across the country are resealing Sonic 2 games

This is legit. As pats said its super easy to find sealed. I had a guy trade in 20 or so copies of this game a few months ago all of them were sealed.

smokinjoe24 · January 2009

It is probably sealed. I passed this one up along with about 5-6 other games for $1 each at the dollar tree.

Robin Mihara · January 2009

its that bad huh

GameboyRicky · January 2009

Robin, I have about 11 sealed game gear games (nothing valuable) and they are all sealed like that.

pompeyparsons · January 2009

I concur, that is definitely a legitimate sealed copy. I have six just like it sitting around.

Robin Mihara · January 2009

seriously though, how do i know you aren't all in it together..... trying to scam me 4 dollars at a time? im gonna need more evidence.

guillavoie · January 2009

LOL, that's a good one Robin.

Hmmm, I hate to make this worse for you, but those sealed GG games are really common.

Along with Ms Pac-Man, Aladdin, The Jungle Book and The Lion King

So much so, there was a Poundshop over here (UK) that was stocked up on these a while back. The US versions for some reason too!
