I've pretty much reached a point in my video game collecting especially in my area that everybody is pretty much aware of what they have, so trying to find a deal is next to impossible so I'd just rather save my money to get something I really want for something that is sold at market value or relatively close to it. Price isn't really much of an obstacle for me if I want something bad enough - it's just working hard to save enough money for it.

As far as sun damage goes, if the spine looks normal I'm ok with picking it up at around disc-only price or a little bit more than that. It would effectively look the same as any other mint game on the shelf as long as its displayed with the spine out.

Hi Pete I always love your eBay videos, you've taught me a lot over the years. I'm curious though, do you spend much time on other marketplaces/platforms or are you mainly on eBay? There are lots of smaller online marketplaces, and local ones like facebook marketplace, and services like Buyee that have some good items on.

When you buy and own Gameboy Color games do you have to switch out the battery eventually (maybe every 10 years?) to not risk battery leak damage to the internal cart itself? Need to know for my own collecting journey I’m about to start collecting GBC / GBA games
@Noirevert4 ай бұрын
You will need to replace the battery in any cartridge that has one eventually. I still have some games on their original batteries (30+ years old) because the cartridge doesn't draw from them very often, but I at least open them up and check every year to make sure they aren't bulging, leaking, or giving off an acidic odor.
