Keeping CE's sealed...

[Gemini-Phoenix]

Not sure whether ths has been asked here before, but I was just wondering whether you guys think that keeping CE's sealed goes hand-in-hand with collecting?

We're obviously all here because we share a common interest - Collecting CE's - But how many of you keep some or all of your CE's sealed? I'm guessing that everyone reading this thread has at least one sealed CE in their collection, if not more!

If you're anything like me, you'll like to keep the elaborate CE's sealed and pick up a cheap standard copy of the game to play at a later date. After all, who really needs all of that crap they put inside CE's? It's not as if many of us would want to split the components of the CE up and display / use them, and I would think that the majority of us keep the items inside the box they came in

Most CE's look nice enough on display as they are. Some more than others. Sometimes keeping them sealed makes them look even more amazing, and it's always nice to look at a brand new untouched CE a few years later and marvel at its awesomeness!

So own up - How many of you are obsessive about condition to keep your CE's sealed? How many do you own like this?
