No it's not, it's a pain in the ass! Heheheh.

Trust me, if I started all over again I wouldn't be so intent on buying everything sealed. It really limits the number of items available to you. The cost doesn't bother me as much (because I'd get my money back if I sold the stuff anyways), but I've had to pass on many items I need for my collection because they were open. It took me months to get a sealed japanese MGS2 whereas 3-5 open ones close per day.

But I'm not going to change now as there really isn't a whole lot left I'm looking for.
I never said its not a pain in the ass :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

It'll be pretty harsh on both my wallet and finding these items, but when you do get it, (IMO) you have a bigger "emotional" joy over it. Not saying people who get unsealed stuff wouldn't be ass happy, but I personally enjoy "sealed" stuff (ive collected sealed stuff for quite a while, just not games)

I think its just personal opinions and stuff, and i mean, for me... having a bigger goal leads me to wanting to find a better job with more money to satisfy my goal. This may not happen nicely, but hey hey hey, you never know till you try!

Ah if only to be in that position! lol.

Yeah I agree mate, sometimes you have to set standards otherwise we end up buying heaps of junk that in the end, COULD be worthless, even to the person who owns it!

I honestly get more pleasure at looking at my sealed Gold Premium than I do anything I have that is opened, funny isn't it!?

The inside game and pin set are both sealed. If the PSP has the screen protector and both those items are sealed I'd definately consider the system brand new.

Very very hard to find. I've seen 2 go this month, but out of my price range for the item dammit.

the stuff inside was sealed... but im sure vs knows more than i do.

i cant read japanese, but i know a few words...
and it doesnt say its new, it saids its used (from the word: 美品, 中古, 新品)

新品 = new product = brand new (doesnt mean its sealed though)
美品 = beauty product = MINT used
中古 = ancient product = used

Cool, lovin' the language lesson TSi! :D

I find it amazing the way the Japanese use images to communicate. Well at least that's the way I see it. They're such a creative and artistic culture and I admire them so much. I'd really love to go to Japan one day! Sorry, that's way off topic but I just wanted to say it! :)

those words are actually originated from chinese, chinese is the backbone of japanese (and then japanese edited their writing and stuff, so it is a lot simplier than chinese)

and yes, i know chinese... cause im chinese =P

Ah cool, sounds good to me mate.

Shame I can't say the same about the Welsh who tried to make their own language and it ended up being so much more useless than any other language on earth!

For example:

"Hello, MGS is great and I like collecting stuff!"

Translates to:

"Hello MGS ydy 'n fawr a Cara yn casglu stwffia!"

Now try pronouncing any of that except "Hello" and "MGS". It's a well known fact that everything you say in English is said backwards in Welsh! Awful language indeed!

Anyway, back on topic! lol.
