A prison for video games. Stops video games from fulfilling their true purpose.

How would you like to be stuck in solitary confinement?

Who has ultimate authority to say that one game is in better condition than an other? Waste of money IMO.....I like the cases though, I keep meaning to buy some. If you're in the UK this place has them: http://ukgraders.co.uk/58-video-game...-display-cases It should save you a fortune on shipping from VGA in the US.

True, but you have to buy the plexiglass in bulk to get any sort of deal on it, then there's the time it takes to make. I think for custom ones yeah that's a good idea, but if you only want say a couple of PS2/DVD sized ones is it worth bothering?

i suppose i am speaking in terms of have a few of your favorite games/game editions graded. coming from the perspective that you already own another copy of the game.
