RT to scare a speculative collector

Why? Why must everything we enjoy be sealed up with a "grade"? I get baseball cards being put in plastic because you can still enjoy both sides of the card. But a Blu-ray?

This shit sucks so much as a Pokemon fan cause getting your hands on a game you either didn’t have as a kid or used to have but lost or gave away is impossible. Everything Pokemon related before the 3DS costs more than a brand new AAA game

it's one of a few that does, yeah. it had a crazy limited run, is in a forever-in-vogue genre, has particular aesthetics about it, etc. haunting ground is a similar case

Hey! I’d like to check that game out. Would you mind if I borrow it and very slowly and deliberately placed it into my ps2’s disc tray as horror violins amp up and up as the disc approaches said tray?

It terrifies me to think how much I've spent on my Pokemon games knowing how bad prices have gotten in the past 6-7 years (shut) it's been happening, especially since I actually like *playing* the games that I own instead of them just collecting dust on a shelf or constantly being resold
