All my games are the mintest possible, and I never felt safe risking their condition by shipping them to VGA, but if it is that big a difference, I want to know that they also won't damage them handling them, I pick up my games with gloves, wrap them in silk, and put them in my closet and NEVER touch them, the idea of people putting their hands on it, without me knowing if they use gloves or not, bothers me, a lot.

I am the SAME way that you're. I get so pissed when I get a game on EBay and I message the seller asking the condition detailing out, that it better not be "blah blah" and then I get it and the seal is completely ripped, or they lied about putting it in a box or even worst a reseal! Pisses me off that bestbuy is doing seals on used games and it's now in clear shrink wrap instead of that ugly yellow. Anyways, if you want to ship it and want it to get them undamaged, go with DHL. It's a bit pricey but for high valued items, do it.
I ordered a game once and it came through DHL. The guy hands it to me in a bag and Im freaking out as it came from overseas but the game/box was so flawless despite it being shipped in a bag.
Though I have to add I dont handle them with gloves and I display them sealed. haha.
