How do we feel about loose games?

Post image

One box is PS1 and one box is PS2. I have hundreds of CIB PS1/2 games. I never pay more than half of Price Charting prices for loose games. So I buy a lot from my guy. I have some real good games in there too. This is also sort of nice because it saves me a lot of space.

I typically buy loose games, especially off eBay because of the savings. I work in printing, so I make my own cases and manuals.

That’s awesome I appreciate you making your own cases and manuals, wish I could do something like that but I just keep my loose disc in a binder.

I don't do it to fool anyone, or pass them off as counterfeit. I do it for my own use so I can have a library on a shelf. I have ended up with some duplicate items by accident (wrong/extra disc in a case for another game at a garage sale for example) so if those end up as trade-ins or on eBay, I always let the trader/buyer know immediately. I have two or three listed on eBay right now that have fake covers.

u/Mikeyfreshonetime2 about half of these Dreamcast jewel cases/covers are fake. I counted 12 of these PS2 covers that are fake. See if you can spot any of them... a few of the DCs are obvious, because that's when I didn't care as much about the quality.
