In my case, it's because I want to get as close to the way that system would have been originally packaged as possible.Īgain, I'm often perfectly fine with buying unboxed systems. In almost every case, boxed systems cost more, so generally if someone is buying a boxed system, they've got some reason for spending the extra money. There are two ways you can buy a system: boxed or unboxed.

I'm not sure how to make this any clearer, but let me try again. If you're selling a system with a mismatched box, I'm just going to wonder a) what happened to the system that was in that box, b) what happened to the box for that system, and c) why you have two identical systems that you have switched boxes on. No, I'm worried about people changing parts around with stuff that most people don't have duplicates of. Maybe I am missing your point entirely and you are worried the box itself is being faked.

Plus the material used today would likely be noticeably different. Hell just finding something to print nes game boxes is a chore, let along finding something w/the capabilities to do a box. You can't just print a box on any old printer. I really don't see that being much of an issue right now as faking a box would be extremely costly. If you are thinking someone is at home printing this stuff up, I wouldn't be to worried about that unless you were buying some rare maps/manuals. Worrying about whether a stack of inserts that were printed at the same time 30 years ago and getting the exact piece of paper that was slid into your box at time of packaging is a little silly to me. I totally swap paperwork out for better condition paperwork.

So there is really no way to know if your boxed toploader had the system manual crushed by a 10 year old and then 20 years later had someone else get it to sell and swapped that paperwork out w/better condition original paperwork that came pre-packaged in a different system. Like every toploader (made at same time) came w/the exact same printed material. What I am getting at is especially for Nintendo stuff, they just printed the exact same materials for everything. To me original means anything that was printed at that time, whether it went into box 1 or box 10,000. I guess this depends on what you consider original.
It just sounds to me that you think as long as the box and system have matching serials then everything has to be "original" at time of packaging. But if there is one, I want them to match. It's a lot easier to fake if there's no serial. It could be original, or it could be a replacement or something added later to match what's on the box.
In other words, the box wouldn't really add any value for me at that point and might even detract from it because I don't really know where all that stuff is coming from. I'm not saying I'd never buy something with a box that doesn't match, but I'd probably think of it not as a CIB, original system but more like a hodgepodge of random stuff. Typically people *don't* just have empty boxes for the same system lying around, so it usually means that at some point, somehow, two different systems were mixed up. I also have to wonder where that second box came from.
Some people might not even think that matters, but if I *am* buying a boxed system, usually it's because I'm wanting to buy that specific package and I'm expecting everything to be original. The reason is that there are different packages that come with different components, and you could end up with a totally mixed and matched system without even knowing it.
