You got any Uncharted goodies you want to sell or trade Baja_fish. I would be very interested. Cheers

it should be noted that the game guide is not needed for grading as it didn't come "inside" I asked them to include the guide but in no way is it apart of the 90 grading. all my games are framed with the guide if its available so i had them case it

Might sound a trivial question, but would the grading have been cheaper if the guide had not been intserted in the Case considering the fact that it significantly increased the size of the case?

Also, a normal FHE can gor anywhere from $3000 - $4500 on ebay, how much would you put the value of a 90+ graded FHE?

PS: I have 2 FHEs now (1 is in the US with a friend) and am seriously considering to get 1 graded. Thanks

It's important to know that the uncharted 2 FHE can only be graded under Qualified and not normal grading, it is considerably easier to get a 90 on these types of grading.

Does this type of grading hold any value then? The grading, as Baja_fish suggested would cost around $400 if done within the US?

Also, I didnt want the grading done earlier since I had just 1 FHE and once graded, the contents would be seal locked inside, and I wont be able to display the purba dagger in my studyroom showcase, which I might like to in the future.

Now after having 2, I want to keep 1 in perfect condition, in UV protected, seal and also mint, and wont mind it kept sealed and hence considering grading.

But last think I want is to grade an item and then see its value fall / not appreciate significantly. Still any guesses how much a graded FHE would fetch?

well as long as it is 85+ but hopefully 90 then price will increase.

They do have value because many VGA buyers are not aware of what they are getting, as it becomes more and more common you may have issues.

The same problem with normal grading, if there are many copies with 85 then prices falls and because it is far easier to get 90 or more with qualified then this might be a issue for you.

$300 grading plus the incredibly cost of shipping to UK which is going to be £100+ at least.
