    Default It is amazing what some people consider mint nowadays.

    Mint? Yet it is missing the controller and doesn't work all the time. Even more laughable is that the seller goes on to say that it is all scratched up too. !

    I think he meant to imply 'or if you have a scratched up Core Grafx', thus swapping the internals for a better casing.

    The word "mint" is used way too much on ebay...and only reflects what it really means half the time. What a joke.

    your right MINT is used way too much nowadays. I used MINT on my 3DO games , but those are MINT. Also people use the word COMLETE alot even though the game or system isn't complete.

    Thats why you always look at the picture and read the description carefully.

    Yeah, I just read an auction today for a Playstation game that was "complete" in the title, but in the description it stated that the manual's back page was missing. Hmm...

    Maybe he meant it was mint flavored?

    Heck, why would you buy a defective incomplete Core Grafx system for $50 when you can buy a working complete one for the same price? O_o

    If you tried to sell a brand new mint would it be a mint mint?
