stackables Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Just got my 2 lego marvel games from Walmart and removed the iron patriot poly. I was wondering if I should list the game as new or used? The game and poly come in a small box that is sealed in plastic. You need to open the box to get the fig out and there is no further plastic around the game. I plan on just selling the game and not the outer box to save on shipping. So would the game be considered new or used? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the game is still sealed I would discard the rest of the packaging and sell it as new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game itself does not have any plastic around it. So it isn't sealed. I think I am leaning towards "like new". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, otherwise you may be looking at an item not as described case. I'd specify that the game had never been play or even removed from the case. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lodibricks Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 The game case should have a seal/tape over the right side where you open it. Having never been opened, I'd take a picture as it is and still consider it new. Actually, I did do just that, four times, and no complaints on eBay.

Guest TabbyBoy Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Be 100% honest and state EXACTLY what you've done saying that the game is unused, it's the only way to avoid worrying about case being opened or a negative feedback. The same goes for when "new" sets have figures removed. To my mind, "new" means in the same exact condition in which a retailer would have it on the shelf. I just wish ebay had 3 categories; New, Used and Unused. Remember buyers have us by the nuts these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no tape or seal on the right side of the game. I definitely think the safe bet is to list it like new considering it was removed from the original sealed package. Better safe than sorry and I doubt it should matter much anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes in these combined packages the case within the box isn't sealed. It was that way for the padawan lego movie with the minifigure I picked up for my kids.

imirish11 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 "Brand New. Product Not Contained within Plastic Shrink-Wrap." As a side note, the Xbox version, although not contained within shrink wrap, is sealed on the long end with a Certificate of Authenticity, which contains a barcode. Seeing the CoA sealed will be enough to satisfy your customers, but to cover all bases, include the text above. Probably sold 50 or so just like this w/out any issues. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stackables Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 On a side note. Anyone have an idea of what the game and a standard padded envelope would weigh? I was hoping my local Meijer had a digital scale but they don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naf Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I was wondering the same thing about this game. I'm planning on selling as used, but put that it's brand new and never played in the description. It's too easy for someone to complain that the game was opened and used when it's listed as brand new, especially when ebay describes new as "in original packaging," the argument can be made that it is not in it's original packaging.

marcandre Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 If it's not shrink wrapped it's not new. Like new. Should not affect the price much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shady225 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 does anyone know if the minifigure in this game is the same as the 30168 Polybag? It looks the same but i am not sure if its a polybag or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks the same but i am not sure if its a polybag or not. It is. That is how I ordered mine, Inside the game isn't sealed but the minifigure is folded up in a polybag.

Maybe I didn't word it correct. The box is shrink wrapped. Open that up and inside the game isn't. The minifigure is in the polybag also in the box. In this instance it isn't a presale, it is buying the box like that. I acquired mine from Amazon UK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbacunn Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 It's the polybag. The game is not sealed like it would be if you bought it separately which is a bummer because you have to sell it as used on ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDarkness Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Then you are selling the game unsealed, which was annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point, if you don't want the game it probably would be better to just buy the polybag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exciter1 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I've sold both the XBox 360 and PS3 versions. The XBox 360 version is a sealed and shrink wrapped game inside. The PS3 version isn't. I sold the 360 version as New and the PS3 version as Used/LIke New. All buyers were happy and I got $27 for each shipped, just recently. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The price is trending around $23 shipped for the game right now. Assuming you spent $30 on the game and you sell it for that much, you are looking at the poly costing you $12-$13 to keep. I guess that is better than the $25 for the fig alone though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
