Default VGA grading

Hi all

Just wanted to get an opinion and your though on some VGA grading questions

1) Do any of dis trust the grade they give?

2) Would any of buy a game that has been graded 80 or below?

3) Have any of you though about grading one of your games?


I only say because I have been planning to grade a fairly large batch of Super Mario Galaxy 2 Tin Editions. They are all sealed but no one as far as I know has a sealed version. At first I though they could be fakes. but they came in a factory official box.

See here: http://collectorsedition.org/forums/...r+mario+galaxy


I guess the real question is, If I got 10 graded (brings unit costs quite abit down at this quantity), would this devalue the item because:

1) It's a PAL game as opposed the the 95% + being NTSC and VGA is relatively unknown in the PAL regions.

2) They may a get a low grade because if the stickers turn out to not be factory applied then they will consider them defects + grade it as opened.

3) Would any of you be interested, even with the above and huge cost. looking at £130+.


I also run the risk of VGA simply rejecting to grade to return back to me with a huge return bill. Has happen to others in the past.

Thanks for any feedback.
