<p>[QUOTE="Sallent, post: 2289839, member: 76194"]Oh yeah, they are quite serious about video game slabbing. Don't you know that if you open the box to play the game, you may be creating tears on the cardboard box, thus lowering the value of your investment. Not to mention that playing the game itself caused the risk of hairline scratches on the disk, or microscratches on the plastic case that holds the disk. Why would you want to actually play a game and risk causing massive loss to your investment's value and upside potential for future profit? Slab the game!</p><p><br /></p><p>They even slab dolls, action figures, casino chips, and pretty much anything else that can be slabbed these days. It's the way every hobby seems to be heading.
