That's always the annoying thing, everyone has a different perception of what they think is very good.

As a collector, I prefer my stuff in pristine condition but the only way to get that is sealed and that would obviously need to arrive securely too.

Judging by the items I received today, yes the PS2 case is in good condition and the game isn't scratched but it isn't what I would call 'very good' because there's some smudges on the DVD and I don't understand why the manual is missing or not stated. I did message the guy before buying it, I was more interested in finding out if it was a platinum edition or not. It never even crossed my mind that this guy will grim me for a missing manual. :/

Yeah, ebay's "very good" description is quite generic and across many media formats. But you're right, that does say it should include the manual too, which this doesn't.

I definitely learnt another new lesson, always make sure the contents are included!

I did note his other games, some are down a 'complete', also unless it states 'new' i try my hardest not to buy when a stock photo is used.

You may not be able to get any comeback from the seller so its up to you on the feedback?

Any way he's not 100%

The seller has offered me a full refund if I send it back, might do this as I can get a new sealed one for £8.99 or so. Not sure yet. :/

Meanwhile, I saw this for £20 buy it now + £6.50 delivery but I didn't take it, then it got relisted for £25 with same delivery. I left it for a bit and was supposed to contact the seller but didn't. Just saw it sold for £15 argh!!!!!!!!!

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2210304296...84.m1423.l2649




Then I saw this for sale just now - gutted I haven't got the first set as both of these are new.

I've also edited my previous posts as they had far too many photos, this should cut down on the loading time for this thread as I've put them in spoiler tags.

Yeah, definitely my favourite so far. I like the feel of the massive XII debossed at the front.

You can get them on eBay second hand for around £25 delivered complete with game, manual and bonus DVD, only available from the US as far as I know.
