• A Note on PRICING/AVAILABILITY & CONDITION DISCREPANCIES:

All games are priced using Pricecharting ("PC" gathers an average of prices) and a heavy dose of discretion.  Prices and availability are subject to change.We try to keep prices as steady and consistent as we can, but we don’t control the economy around these games nor do we control the rate at which they are sold to us.We are a small but dedicated team here at Nostalgic Video Games, and sometimes individual discretion is used when inventorying and pricing these games.  Due to the sheer amount, influx, and outflow of our stock, we aren’t able to individually photograph every game we list for sale, so we work off of this bulk-style inventory system to deliver games to you as efficiently as possible!  If you disagree with the condition of the game you received, let us know and we will work with you to make sure you’re satisfied!

• A Note on LABELS/STICKERS:

All of our games will be stickered and labeled BY US!  Every game we inventory will have at least 2 labels: 

• A larger inventory barcode tag, usually on the front bottom right corner of the box, but may be located in another corner or on the back depending on the case's art. 
• And a price tag along the spine of the game. 

Some games will have the same type of price tag as the spine on the front of the game as well for front-faced display in our brick-and-mortar store.  Labels will usually NOT be placed directly onto cardboard boxes/sleeves or a sealed game, but cheaper games or cardboard sleeves over standard cases will sometimes be directly tagged.If a game’s insert/cover art is directly tagged by a previous retailer, we will not remove it and risk damage to the insert.

• A Note on DISC CONDITION/RESURFACING:

Most of our disc-based games will be sent through our industrial disc-resurfacing machines to polish and buff out any scratches on the discs.  We check every disc by hand and some with very minor scuffs/smudging will be deemed fit for sale and skip this process.However, Blu-ray discs and Gamecube Mini-discsCANNOTbe run through our polishers.  These games are all checked and determined if they are fit for sale.  Thankfully Blu-ray discs (PS4/Xbox One and newer) are pretty hardy.Every Gamecube disc that comes through our store is put into a console and tested to make sure it starts up.  Gamecube discs are SUPER finicky about being polished, so if the game looks scratched up but still plays, we won’t risk polishing it.  Check out our video about Gamecube preservation for more:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Huu8zDMS4MMIf a game you purchase is scratched and not reading, contact us and we will work with you to make sure you’re satisfied.  

• A Note on FAKES/REPRODUCTIONS:

We NEVER sell fake games.  Games identified as fake are destroyed with extreme prejudice (Follow us on youtube for that)If a game you received is indeed a fake and somehow slipped through our checks, let us know IMMEDIATELY and we will work with you to make sure you’re satisfied.We mark ALL of our Cartridge boards to ensure no swapping with returns.Some of the items we carry from distributors are recently OFFICIALLY LICENSED rereleases of older games from companies like Retrobit.  These will be CLEARLY STATED as official REPRODUCTIONS/collectors editions as well as have official imagery from the manufacturer.
