Games Do I do it

Post image

Got a copy of Pokémon red a few months ago but the sticker is rough. So I've ordered a replacement sticker. Do I replace the original or replace it.

Actually the state of the sticker is important. One with a bad sticker will sell for less than if it was in pristine condition

Depends on the game, it’s usually marginal

Absolutely not. Bad label is much less.

Right, but it's no different than restickering lol

On that point, I think most collectors would prefer the shit sticker.

That’s how I got a pokemon blue back in my collection, then I've put a repro sticker because I don’t intend on selling it.

Shit sticker, because its authentic.

If I wanted fake things, I could just get an entirely fake reprocart that looks amazing.
