Define “collector”. @Sicklyboy is under his roaring thunder more often than he’s behind the wheel, based on his socials.Not sure if that’s collecting, but it’s certainly an automotive hobby. Other than that, a lot of locals in my area dabble in it, actually. It’s not uncommon to see vintage cars with antique plates on, and by vintage cars I don’t mean jalopies, I mean actual collectible cars with government-recognised antique status (in the UK you get special plates, and if your vehicle is older than 1982, it’s exempt from tax). This is in part because my county runs an annual classic car show, so yes, it’s a fairly popular hobby. Every August there’s *hundreds* of them on the streets.
EDIT: I don’t think it’s any secret that I live in Wales, so I may as well provide a link. I get to enjoy this every year:

I mean, if you get your shit destroyed by some guy you'll expect him to repay you? right?
Correct, that sums it up. But why for picking up an expensive sealed WATA graded item? You think they'd be foolish to do so.
I have 0 empathy for people who feed such companies that amount of money instead of emulating the game or buying decently priced one, a bit damaged game perhaps for AT LEAST 100X cheaper and actually playing it. Later if he decide to get his money back he will sell it for double the price and that game will circulate amony deep pocket people instead being shared with people who really apreciate games and play them.
I also like owning games, but i dont go around spending 10k on a gba game. there has to be some common sense. that game than curculates in wethy circles and some games regular gamer like you cant ever afford some games because of that.
You're talking to a dumbass whom couldn't even reply to my post calling him out. I wouldn't bother.
it wasnt destroyed by "some guy" but by customs. if package is insured, yes, he gets a refund, if not than tough luck, he got a lesson.
A lesson on what? Being forced to spend money on insurance (that may or may not refund you) because your own government can't tell the difference between a collector's item and drugs? Did you drop out of middle school?
Whenever you send something by mail or as a package, the company that is dilivering can see the price and if package is ensured, in the case of damage the person gets the refund... he should at least in my country idk for the fucked up US of A, everything is backwards there, especially these days as i hear and see.. but i hope laws and consumer protections work.
Considering the fact that they’re actively driving their prized collectible cars in Wales, the world’s capital of rain, I don’t think I have to my guy. My “survey” is hundreds (not an exaggeration) of classic cars driving around the county every year.
Easy, maybe you want it perfect as it came from a gamestop. I own a few complete in box games for my sega. Am i an idiot for wanting it like that?
In my opinion, just don't buy a mint 100% grade A+ sealed copy to begin with. You can already get used boxed copies for a better price.
The difference is that those games probably are not in a ridiculous transparent coffin.
