I started just like you. But then I started to buy games that I didn't want to play because I had already played them before or I just simply want them for collecting purposes (like a particular game to complete a series or something like that). Then I also wanted to get sealed copies of my favourite games to keep them in the best possible conditions. Step by step and now there are games that I really need to own in factory sealed condition.

But I will never reach the level of paying 100 or 1000s for a factory sealed game that you can find in mint condition for much less. I also don't worry too much about the condition of the cellophane as much as it's official and intact.
