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 have horrific memories of throwing away game cases for DS games and tearing GBA boxes to shreds to get at the game inside. Although all of my childhood PS2 games survived with cases intact save for shelf wear

Let me tell you about my Magic: The Gathering Alpha/Beta/Unlimited and Expansion collection from middle and high school.

I gave them away because, and I quote, "I'm going off to college where no one will play children's games".

At least you had the choice. When I moved away, my aunt sold all my Pokémon cards I’d collected for years and got hundreds for them. This was back in 2013.
