We at BRC Gaming Depot use a 0-10 rating scale to determine condition of items up for sale, this is a break-down of how we come to our numbers on our listings. If you have any questions on condition, or would like a specific picture of any item please feel free to send a message using the "ask seller a question" form. The current break-down only reflects CD/DVD based games (Playstation, Sega CD, Sega Saturn, Playstation2, Gamecube, Xbox, etc), farther break-downs are forthcoming.
