I like the idea of bagging them and tagging them. Does anyone know where I can buy about 750 bags for the SNES carts? I have a small few bagged up that are the perfect size, but I can't even remember where I got them. Hopefully doing so won't break the bank.
Bagging them sounds like a good process anyways. I recently put up the two bookshelves and filled them. It looks great. However, now I need to go through and inspect each one. There are still a lot of stickers I need to get off, writing I need to remove, and some discolored backs that I need to change. This will be tedious, but at some point I hope to go through and clean and test each game. I also need to double check my master list and see if I have made any cataloging errors, (already noticed one - had two copies of Madden 95 and 97 each but no copy of 96. It is so hard to keep track of those sports games. They all seem the same.)
Now that I am nearing completing the collection, I want to got through and make note of the ones that have torn or damaged labels as well. I plan to replace those copies over time. I'm kind of glad that I still have that ahead of me actually. I rather enjoy going out and looking for games, but as I only need about 21 more to complete my collection, going out has been far less fruitful and I have been shopping more for them online, which is far more expensive and far less fun. I like collecting for SNES and it feels like it is kinda almost "over," which is kinda sad in some ways. I'm happy to be almost done, but questing for new games is something I don't really want to give up. It is a fun hobby. If I can find replacements for 100 or so labels, at least I'll have something to do. Maybe I'll just bag the ones that are in solid condition, that way I can see the obvious "non-shiny" ones that need replacing.
Thanks for the info guys. I put it to good use, but please let me know where I can find a lot of those SNES bags.
Take care,
Chris
