Title: Worst condition of a complete game you have purchased ??
Post by: Nec.Game.head on March 31, 2014, 07:28:28 AM
So just the other day I came across a good deal on some TG16 games that I needed to replace with the exception that the genius that sold them to me decided it would be smart to spray paint all around the cases and wright the titles on them with a sharpie marker. LOL WTF ??? I asked him what was the point of this and he quickly replied It's so that when I have them stacked with all my other CD games I can easily identify them. Wow to say the least I had to low ball the hell out of him for those Huey's and bring them to a better place which they so desperately needed at this point !! Do any of you guys have any story's regarding this kind of Obey abuse ???

Ha lol you wish paisa !! I got a great deal the Huey's and manuals are in perfect shape and they were replacements for my previously damaged Huey's. The whole point of posting on this thread is to reply back with good war stories to share while looking for the Obey goods out in the wild. lol Not to complain that when I took you out I didn't wine and dine you !!!

Everything is replaced and it was done fairly inexpensively. Now it's back to the hunt !!

Definitely true, what blows is the spray paint that is on the cases when trying to remove it eats away at the plastic. What's good is Devils Crush and Alien Crush have absolutely no damage to them. I've already replaced the cases and will be ordering some of Sparkys replacement labels for them.

honestly, thats one of the weirdest ideals I've heard to not misplace your games....and in the og cases how could you not id the tg games compared to reg cds with the labels on the outside in bright colors and it even says turbografx-16 on the label, lol
