  • S5:E5 Stuck in the Middle?

    CORRECTION!!! I get mixed up bet.

    RoboCop vs Punisher, so that game

    that I actually traded to Josh was a

    9.8 A++ Punisher for OG XBOX

    NOT RoboCop LOL


    hopper goes philosophical thanks to

    some dedicated listener input and

    talks about the emotions behind

    all our investment decisions...

  • S5:E4 Why go CiB??

    (2) CLARIFICATION UPDATES:


    from Brian Burton on Facebook,

    the cover art matte mario that went for

    "40k is an imp with a very high grade sixth print manual"

    "Unless the labels are wrong and they are correct inside"

    "that's a huge unaddressed fuck up so pop has two 7.0"

    "if they are corrected they will need to find equivalent graded correct manuals so most likely they won't remain 7.0 pieces"


    and from Kevin aka frogfucions85 on IG,

    "Wanted to clarify something that you discussed early in the episode about inserts and GSIs. There are two types of inserts in CiBs:


    Standard inserts: these are anything in the box that is not specific to that game. This could be the Nintendo branded cart sleeve, nintendo power card, etc. that is in more than one game.

    The others are inserts that are specific to the game, a GSI (“Game-Specific-Insert”). This could be the Zelda map, a strategy guide offer for that game, etc.

    The Zelda pink slip is a GSI. It was only in Zelda, and specifically was only in a very limited amount of second print boxes. It is an imp in anything else.

    One way to check if something is a GSI is to look for a code on the insert. Check the picture of the Zelda pink slip, the bottom right corner says “NES-ZL-US”. The 2 letter code is the game, in this case ZL is Zelda."
