Porte048 Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 This seller didnt even ship to the US, but overall Im still curious what you guys think. Is this too damaged to count towards 125, or since you can still identify it, is it good to go? eBay Auction -- Item Number: 273215979046 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojomojo Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 No one is judging you on the condition of your collection, right? Looks rough to me, especially for the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+intvsteve Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 It should count. Your own personal standards may or may not want to consider it boxed - it's kind of 0.58 boxed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No kidding, I emailed him on eBay just to see if he was willing to ship to the USA, but I never got a response, ebay messaging is a fricken mess though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+intvsteve Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 The silver standard Well you'd have all the games. And with rounding, it comes to 125. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+intvsteve Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Wasn't "Gold" having all 125 games at least as cartridges? And "Platinum" was boxed - with original boxes? So this could be "Platinum" with extra scruffy box. Tarnished platinum? There isn't a minimum quality-of-box/manual/overlays requirement, is there? Locating a repro box to improve display quality is up to the owner's discretion. Heck, it might even be tough to lay hands on those repro boxes, too! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+the1hatman Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 I'd love to buy this and repair the box. I'm certain I have a technique that would make the graphics passable for any 125 collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeekDragon Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 (edited) I would say yes. Just a place holder till I find a better box since the sides of the box are still good and you can read what the game is.

(Unlike gold which tops at 24k in US-rating, Platinum's karat rating is "percent times 10" everywhere, so 995 karat is 99.5% Platinum, 0.5% other alloyed metal. Also, the use of "karat" to refer to non-gold metals is inconsistent, some would just use "995 platinum.") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 As far as I know, pure gold is 24 karat all around the world, not exclusive to US standards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 The cart and manual are worth a good $100, so the question is, "Is that box worth $50 to you?". I paid around $12 or so for a really nice repro box, but I can't claim to me an exclusive member of a club...Well, maybe the Silver level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
