 Tips from the collectibles coach

games should be complete, and have their original battery covers,  and be in full working order.

Remove batteries when handheld games consoles are not in use.

Try to prevent serial numbers and transfers on gaming consoles and games from getting damaged

as this will help with future resale values if you choose to do so
