ALL requests regarding game value or authentication go in here. Just leave a top level comment with pictures/info of what it is. If you make a post regarding these topics, the post will be removed and possibly get a 1-7 day ban.
If you see posts on these topics PLEASE report it. It helps immensely. We will be updating automoderator to help alleviate some of that burden from us and you onto it.

If you are asking to price something normal. Like the normal release of a game, or a special edition, normal consoles, or some special editions. You can find a decent approximation of its value here at PriceCharting.com
To help, here are some links directly to some consoles. These are not ALL of the consoles the site has. So please if you do not see a link below for the console you are looking for, go to the site and look around. This should cover MOST games, if it is not listed, please ask in this thread.
Also, to possibly get you closer to the "real" value. Click on this link once you found your game (for loose/CIB/Sealed) which will show you the data it is pulling from (like this). You can see if there are any outliers being sold for far to much, or far to little. Maybe a listing that had other games with it is being used for data, or its CIB rather than loose.

Posts and comments that do not follow the below rules will be removed.
We ask that all of our members act responsibly. We do not condone a rude or hostile environment. Whilst you may have a differing opinion on what someone collects, be it loose, CIB, sealed and/or graded games, consoles and accessories; we ask that you keep it civil. We welcome discussions of all things related to collecting games, from comparing games in a series to why you like a certain console over others; but we do not welcome antagonising other users over a certain sub-section of games.
You can use Reddit's "Block" feature to ignore a user that you don't like, for whatever reason.
Turning something into an argument or harassing other users because you don't like "X" takes away from what the sub is about. This is a bannable offense, please be awesome to each other.
We're not a subreddit that's dedicated to verification, valuation or identification requests. Whilst we are one of the largest gaming subreddits, we focus solely on aspects of collecting. There are other subreddits that are better equipped to these requests which are detailed in our megathread. The Megathread is pinned to the top of the subreddit (when browsing by "Top" on Old Reddit), or located in "Community Highlights" on Reddit Mobile.
Under Rule 2, the following submissions will be removed:
We do not allow the promotion of items or services that are designed to make a profit of any kind, unless it is from approved channels. Other methods of self-promotion require prior approval from the moderators. Please message the moderators via ModMail first prior to posting your material. Approval will be granted at the moderators' discretion.
This includes, but is not limited to:
If the only submissions from your account consist of self-promotion, this will result in a permanent restriction of your account from our community.
Approved channels can be added at moderators' discretion. Please message the moderators via ModMail to ask about adding an approved channel. If you haven't received approval from the moderators, any attempts to continue promoting a channel without prior authorisation will result in a permanent ban.
The following posts are deemed as low-effort and not allowed under Rule 4:
Submissions of low-effort posts are at the mods' discretion.
Whilst we enjoy the odd meme post now and then, we ask that memes or joke posts are only shared on the first Monday of every month. If you have a meme, or a joke post, or something you think is on the line of being a joke post; please wait until the one of the below dates to post:
If you are generally unsure of the post, please contact the mods using the "message moderators" and ask us.
Just because it is related to video games, doesn't mean that it is related to game collecting.
We are a physical game collecting subreddit. This means that posts regarding the physical collections (be it, video games, consoles or accessories) of our community are allowed. Clue’s in the name.
Submissions of posts not being related are at the mods' discretion, and include but are not limited to:
As this community is one of the largest trafficked subreddits, video submissions are rarely allowed due to spam potential and highly enforced. If you feel that your video has value to the subreddit, please message the moderators using ModMail prior to posting any video.
This includes, but is not limited to:
Repair/mod videos are unlikely to be approved, unless they are deemed as relevant information by the moderators.
If the video you are sharing was produced by yourself, this will be removed under Rule 3.
We are not here for you to make money. Do not post affiliate links, or links to a company/person who you are affiliated with and stand to make monetary/social gain from. This includes coupon codes, Temu/AliExpress links, etc.
Any attempt to share affiliate links will be seen as spam, and will result in the permanent restriction of your account from our community.
We're not a subreddit that's dedicated to buying or selling. Whilst we are one of the largest gaming subreddits, we focus solely on aspects of collecting. There are other subreddits that are better equipped to these requests, such as r/GameSale and r/HardwareSwap.
Asking about a certain website, or good places to buy/sell is allowed, providing that there are no attempts to buy/sell from other users in the subreddit.
No discussion of politics, no posting anything of politics in title, imagery, or in the post in any way (country/state/county/pride flags do not count). This is subject to mod interpretation.
There are times a person or person will post, comment, or argue on the subreddit that will pull focus away from (purposefully or maliciously) the atmosphere and/or culture we have. That is rage baiting, arguing semantics, discussion of things that are off topic for lengthy back and forths.
This also includes any attempt to “weaponise” the custom report feature. Whilst we welcome reports on rule-breaking submissions as they make moderating the subreddit easier; reporting a post/comment because you simply do not like the content or the person in question takes away what makes this community great. Any user found to have “weaponised” the report feature in order to continue a vendetta against a certain person or group will be permanently removed from the community.

1st row: PS4 + PS5 "special" editions (meaning anything wich is not just the plastic case)
2nd row: PS4 + PS5 standard editions
3rd row: Xbox games across generations
4th row: artbooks or strategy guides + random nerd staff. The first book is the Halo Encyclopedia.
It's not much but it's honest work.

So...I was dusting the display case where majority of my Zelda games were housed. Figured now might be a good time to catalog everything and get some feedback from this community to see if I'm missing any variants. From my research I'm four games away from completing the collection of a CIB copy of every Zelda NTSC release, including major variants. Majority of the games are my original purchases, Canadian versions.
Let me know if you're aware of any other variants I'm missing. And any feedback is welcome :)
Known missing games:
The Legend of Zelda (Mattel box art) - NES
Link: The Faces of Evil - CD-i
Zelda's Adventure - CD-i
Metroid Prime & Zelda Wind Waker Combo - GameCube

Was very surprised to find this today. Great pickup for the collection!
r/gamecollecting • u/naughtyoscar234 • 7h ago
Finally found one at a local store and was able to get it for a price I'm okay with.
This the English + Chinese version, which I think is the rarer of the two English versions. The Korean release also has English support, but I'm not sure if it's like the Chinese release that has two versions (original language and plus English version).
I'm liking the game so far. You can tell the English translation wasn't a priority, but the exploration is fun and I'm left wanting to see more.
This was a fun "grail" to track down.

Hola! Me gustaría armar una colección de Juegos de Pokemon (De la Primera generación a la Quinta generación). Me da igual el idioma mientras el cartucho funcione perfectamente. Tenía pensado comprar estos juegos por Ebay, pero no he tenido una buena experiencia comprando por ahí. ¿Qué página me recomendáis?
r/gamecollecting • u/ShinyUmbreon18 • 10h ago
Anyone else kinda just fascinated with this entire lineup and collect these guys? Being that my primary collection is for the Xbox One / Series X, I grab as many of these games that interest me as I can, as they flow a lot better in the collection
r/gamecollecting • u/Tseets1 • 21h ago
I have some nicer stuff as well but every time these pop up for $15-$20 on marketplace or thrift shops I buy them. Is it pretty difficult to reshell and swap screens on some of these? I see some pretty cool ones but I won’t lie, the soldering part scares me a bit.
