Subject: [SWCollect] Need advice
regarding a Wasteland purchase
Hello group,
My name is Stefan and I am
gamoholic.
:)
I need some advice, preferrably from someone who
knows what a NEW copy of Wasteland should look like. I have included a picture
of a game I just bought. He declared it to be NEW, and said he got this one
for christmas 88-89, but that he already had the game so he never played this
one.
First of all there is a piece of tape on the
front cover, as you can see. It is appearantly a "pricetag", which immidiately
suggests it was bought used. There is also some kind of tear to the right of
the cover, also visible, where there was some kind of tape. I assume some tape
was used to hold the box together? (since it is a fold-out)
Manuals appear to be new and not used. But
regarding the disks. The two disc sleeves are put together using some kind of
white tape, this looks very unprofessional but I have seen that kind of tape
before on original old games so I am not sure. Some input would be
appreciated, so I know whether or not to complain.
/Stefan
