Re: Do not support the vga!
I'm assuming you mean the preservation, Johnny. Yes, as they only grade and box in wrapper games, it can be done easily and cheaply at home. Preserving open and used games is another matter, requiring a bit more finesse, and if, for example you had an open and boxed game like Final Fantasy/Dragon Warrior/Super Metroid/etc. you wanted preserved, that would require care. These games used coated cardboard for their boxes and making sure they are as moisture-free as possible is critical.
If you do get a game appraised, remember this: a legitimate appraiser will NEVER demand secrecy. A game appraisal can take some time (especially if you're having it tested to see if it works), but an honest person will always be willing to be observed.
If anyone were to want a game appraised or to learn how to be an appraiser, I would be more than happy to help. This site, in truth, is a great place to build a legit society of game appraisers, with the huge array of information and passion already present.
