    Default Removing Permanent marker from GBA Label..

    I just bought a copy of Donkey Kong Country 3, And it's the "Not for resale" Version. I can tell it is, Even through the permanent marker. How can I remove the permanent marker from the "Not for resale" Part on the label without damaging the label?

    Also I have another problem with this cart.. The EB's price sticker Is over the "PROPERTY OF NINTENDO" sticker on the back of the cart, And I tried to remove it but it started dmaging the property of nintendo sticker, So naturally I stopped trying to remove the EB sticker. How can I remove the EB sticker without damaging the Property of nintendo sticker?

    The "PROPERTY OF NINTENDO" sticker should, and I say SHOULD, be coated with heavy plastic. You know what I'm talking about, like.. a vinyl sticker that has a gloss top? Granted I haven't had a Nintendo kiosk cart since the N64 days, but anytime there was a sticker or marker over the "PROPERTY OF NINTENDO, STORE_____ LOCATION_____" or whatever sticker, I was able to carefully dissolve it with some alchohol in layers, leaving the gloss label in tact beneath it.

    Then again that's N64 labels. :/
