    My buddy Dangerboy has made a great video showing the flaws of video game grading. For one thing, the case itself damaged the strategy guide that was encased by them. Also, the cases are not airtight, so it is entirely possible for oxidation to happen to your games. Not to mention the fact that most graded games sell for the same price, if not lower, than their ungraded counterparts. Just do an Ebay search to see. I am all for preservation of games, but VGA is not the way to go in that respect.

    Pretty much what those of us with any common sense knew already.

    Stop giving attention to these attention whores. They are making business from people raging over the prices.


    Controversy creates cash, whether or not the end result does sell for the thousands people want, VGA is still getting paid.
