VGA grader legit?

It really depends on what you want to do.

Like myself I have graded a game to simply preserve and protect it. VGA cases are very good.

The popularity on eBay is mainly due to resellers using VGA to increase the price. In high grades the demand for them is high to charge the higher prices but for lower grades demand is lower.

In terms of reputation and reliability, VGA are somewhat new to the grading industry and as far as I'm aware they are quite secretive about their credentials. There have been cases when they have mistaken a a reseal for a real seal. They are very rare cases but it has happened. In the end if the end users thinks it's real I guess it doesn't really matter.

For anyone outside North america cost are horrific and would take a long time to recover the cost of a lower value game, It's easier to understand and grade when the item is of high value.

So if you have higher value items, that you think would get a 85+ grade then it's a good idea.

If you want to preserve them with out the grading cost then you could buy the VGA cases direct for less.
