i like to grade games from good - near mint, if they are like almost perfect
its nice when somebody gets something and its in better condition than expected
and i agree with you fella - John's defination of mint is pretty spot on

Sometime last year, I got a copy of Shenmue for DC preowned from Gamestation. Took it home, put it in the DC, nothing happens. I take it back, they have another copy in so they replace the discs.
Get home, and it works. I spend the next few weeks happily playing it and really enjoying it, then I get to disc 3. Disc 3 doesn't work. I go back to Gamestation, and THEY HAVE NO MORE COPIES. So I never did find out how the first part of Ryo Hazuki's quest ended. Gamestation gave me ?15 off any other game though, so I got Paper Mario (GC) instead.
Recently, I've noticed a couple of copies of Shenmue 2 in there, and even a copy of Panzer Dragoon Saga for ?84. Good luck, suckers.

The "MINT" Issue,
GAME is my biggest complain, You find a game you want take the box to them, they look in the messy draw of disks and manuals, put it in the scratched/marked box and you get home to play it and the manauls in bad condition and the CD is scratched more than a cat owners arm.
That's the supposedly "NEW" stuff too.
Don't get me started on the pre-owned games.

Bah... I've had too many eBay horror stories to mention; pretty much given up buying stuff from there (usually DC or SAT). Buy most of my games from here now and I must say you guys really do ship only quality (when promised) goods. Second-hand games are always going to be a roulette, you've just got to accept that.
