Well I currently have rented storage but that's about it, my biggest problem is getting funding from either grants or loans from the bank. Really struggling at the momment.


Likely only be selling via the forums and eBay even with there huge fee's although in very small quantities only, until I get some proper funding and buy stock from a distributor. The small amount of items I have are from an ebay seller and I purchased a pallet from him, been going through it and have some interesting items some very good ones and alot of worthless items. Also have some figures and some blu-ray steelbook.

I will be operating as a online store only as I think the cost to buy shop space is high and demand for Collector's edition games is much lower than the normal games. Still as my website building skills are basic only, it will take me a long time to learn how to make it with self help books and google.

But hey you have to start somewhere.


Back on topic - Did anyone recieve a copy of the Super Mario Galaxy Tin edition with the sticker seal.

If these are indeed sold with the seal, I will be annoyed because my copy didn't and I though they all came like that.

It looks like not many collectors got this edition, i have decided to send this to vga to get it graded by a pro. They will tell me this is legit or not. But this is going to be mega expensive because i'm from the UK and have been told I have to pay alot more.

As you may already know, I bought a load of these back in June as a group buy (Helping our worldwide collector's out), and none of the ones I received had the sticker seal on top of the tins. Neither did the replacements I received from GAME

At first I assumed that this was because the tins were initially separate from the game, and someone had to insert the games into the tins, but now i'm not so sure after seeing your evidence above...

This makes me quite angry as I have half a dozen of these stored away, none of which has that sticker seal

I also recieved my copy without the seal, I just got an e-mail back from VGA, they said it will cost $100 grade and ship back.

I think I will send this off in the new year as it takes 40-60 working days to grade anyway.

Will have to send 2-3 to make this cost effective.
