But not only that, who's to say what the actual contents are like inside the sealed game??? I've bought brand new sealed games before (but i should just clarify NOT VGA graded) and the instruction manual had been creased. This has been on sealed xbox games with the xbox certificate of authenticity still intact. And I've had this before on retro games like on the nintendo 64. I know video game retailers can reseal games but these were brand new (And you can tell if a box has been opened before as the flush fit isnt the same and usually has a small crease due to being opened already).

Anyway I'm talking too much lol. But seriously I like the idea but it's ultimately flawed as you're paying a huge premium for something that you don't know what you're going to get inside. Like a box of chocolates really.... expensive chocolates at that
Why does it matter about the inner contents? Its not like anyone buying a VGA graded game has any intention of opening it.

I understand why people buy graded games, but personally its not really something for me.
