Yeah my one is still sealed, I haven't seen a graded game in hand before so I don't know what kind of things they mark down for, but based on my experience of carded figure grading I'd be genuinely surprised if it didn't at least get an 85. But we will see, it's just a test really. I've seen boxed vehicles with plenty of shelf wear get 80 grades.
Just sent my first item into AFA for grading...

I was just doing my research and saw some ungraded ones with high prices too I also see a tasty brand new SSFII Nes being sold by a DJ Jedi and considering you are a DJ i take it thats you
now I can see why its high as the bundle it came with didnt come boxed and loads brought it in the bundle, if it had been sealed box in the bundle then im sure there would be more out there, only prob is I thought if u had an expensive item like that you had to use the higher tier service ?It said the low tier was fine for games worth up to $200, and a sealed version of this game is worth roughly $150-$200. That one only sold so high because it graded 90, so I can't imagine they require you to guess what it's worth after grading? I mean it's not like a dead mint Klaatu is worth more than £15 until you get it graded.
$10,000 for a sealed snes game. **** I had a Snes as a kid, wish I'd not played it now, just looked at it. thats is crazy money.

That would be a good idea, plus they could put a section at the back of all the cock ups they've made as well. :lol: :lol:
Never used AFA, far too lazy, but I agree it is staggering the time they take and the prices they charge, yet they have a website straight from the 90's!
Fingers crossed you get a decent grade.
Let us know when it arrives back...............around Christmas time by the sounds of it!

To be fair they do have a 3-5 day turnaround tier if willing to pay or a 1 day turnaround tier if you are brianstoys
I dont like the way they charge more for how expensive the item costs though, I dont think UKG do that ? plus the cases are nicer with UKG but alas just not as popular on resale.

Yeah, that is very cheeky. Blantantly just money grabbing. Their service isn't affected by the value of the item, they are just saying 'you're minted enough to own an expensive item so we're gonna rape you a bit more'
