Title: Got my new chipcase re-labeling set from Sparky and have pics
Post by: Shrapnoid on February 17, 2012, 12:11:49 PM

I got these from Sparky a short while ago and have already applied several of them on cases that used to be labeled with masking tape and ink.

Sparky's labels are almost identical to the originals and they stick on great!

Just look at this!

What cases are you using to put in the chips?

Thanks, Lil. I really like looking at them next to the other games in the organizers. They're just so colorful that they look more like flavors than actual colors.

Some of them are cases that I got the games with that's original labels were already roughed up and some are cases from other games that I de-labeled years ago in favor of other games, I think.
That was so long ago that I can't remember.
So, I've already put on about 12 or more of the new labels.

I still need about 8 more chipcases and a few manuals for other games that I'm storing in regular CD cases but, once that's taken care of, I can focus on some of the other things I need.

Yes and no. It really depends on those who want to have the chipcases for that feeling of completion so your cards don't seem cold and alone.

I was able to buy in bulk new sports games on the forum. I gutted them and now have a nice case for each of the TTI games. That's the best way to do it if you can find somebody selling them like that.  
I got Sparky's stickers and went ahead and put them on all the cases. It makes a world of difference on your shelf.

Yeah but, unfortunately for us, a lot of the greedbay resellers have started doing this too in the hopes that they can sell the cases for way more than there worth.
When I see adds like that, I just shake my head in disgust and look at something else.
