All of this stuff is a scam and should be avoided. There is well-documented collusion between the grading companies and auction houses. Not to mention it ruins the retro collecting hobby for those who take actual joy in it.

I have always found it funny that rarity is less important than demand. I have a few things in my collection where there might be a handful of them on earth but weren’t super expensive.

Imagine having to replace 6 double A batteries everytime you finish gaming. The gamegear was brutal on the pocket, and the enviornment.

I had a Game Gear and my mom gave it away when I was at University. I still have an old Duck Tales cartridge. I was devastated.

I wouldn't consider paying the Manufacturer's retail Price for any of them, let alone auctioning it. Vintage technology has a distinct appeal compared to vintage cars that you can drive or paintings that you can display. The only tangible interaction with a "mint" sealed-condition vintage item is the outer box and "rating', which holds little significance.

0:56 source? Minecraft is still the most sold video game, with close to 240 million sales.

I thought you were better than this, Wired. Don't give these auction grifters a platform. The games are absolutely not worth that much. This bubble burst years ago, but they're trying to regain a foothold. Don't let them by believing this nonsense. Grading is a scam.

How do they know what is in the box? I just saw a video where some people bought 1st gen Pokemon cards and when they opened the box it had current pokemon cards

There is an iphone on ebay someone is ASKING a ridiculous prie for. there is no sold listing for that price so you cannot claim it's worth as much as someones asking price. im going to ask $1B for my car, does not mean thats what it's worth ffs.

Is WIRED not going to address the obvious mistake they made by giving these scam artists a platform? Honestly, a rare L by them.

Please don't contribute to the wildly out-of-control speculation in the gaming collectibles market.

That Game Gear is going to be DOA with those cheap blown caps SEGA used.

A lot of those old games are not worth it for those insane prices, when you can buy used ones for FAR less money.
