Game Seal Collectors Thread - Post Images of Your Collection

Post by Ceph »

I know it's a controversial subject, but there is no need to feel ashamed any longer!

Allow me to get this thread started with a photo of my collection. It's still small, but I'm quite proud of it.

Join in and post pictures of your own favorite schrinkwraps and factory seals, and share tips on how to store them.
Eventually I'd like to turn this thread into a priceguide.

I store mine in cardboard box. Some people think that storing them in plastic folders is best, but if your flat ever caught on fire you'd have plastic folder melted all over your... oh wait, those would melt too...

I almost forgot it: Here's a photo of my collection of signatures from the delivery men who brought me parcels with games. Of course no respectable game collection could ever be considered complete without. (Take note, Cave-box collectors.)

I like it when they put a small square of bubble wrap in between the case. Upon completion of my mural a forum will be opened.

What annoys me is when people don't look after the seal properly, they stick all sorts of junk in the cellophane which can stretch it out of shape.

You can see here someone has abused this fine example by sticking a Taromaru in it, but I was able to remove the game and use it as a display stand for the much more worthwhile packaging.

Bubble wrap is meant to be destroyed for enjoyment, so yes.

Well done, Etrian: This is precisely the wrong thread for that sort of thing.

You mean, a link to a bunch of (supposedly) sealed games has nothing to do with a thread about game seals?

Oh brother.
