    Why do people say "sell off" instead of just sell? It's only a internet thing, people don't say that in life. Anyway, if you have somthing graded from an unopened factory case it might get an 8 but with a "u" for untouched by hands , this is actually better than a 9.

    Yes. Yes they do.

    If you are going to keep the game, it isn't worth it because you are basically paying for the acrylic case. Like the others have said, you can get a case for a lot less than what they charge for grading.

    If you were looking to sell, it still isn't worth it, becase the game doesn't have a lot of demand/value. So even if some value was gained by grading it, the value gained would very likely be less that what was paid to have it graded.

    Why would you waste your money on that VGA crap??? It's nothing but a bunch of bullsh*t. Play your game, enjoy it, and don't support that game grading thieving nonsense that only idiots spend their money on.

    thank you.

    Amen, brother. I look at those people as selling a service that is absolutely worthless. Sure, it gives your game a "grade", but the market dictates its true value. It's not worth anything if you can't get someone to give that for it.
    Save your money on grading and instead buy another game that you'll actually play and not just set on a shelf and stare at in its stupid acrylic box.
