A sealed game is a box with shrink wrap. Opened, it is a game night. In the overview [Security for collectors](/artikel/sicherheit-fuer-sammler) the same rule applies as with LEGO: the condition of the wrap is the price.

## Storage

Dry, dark, little pressure, not on a damp floor. Do not lift the wrap "just to check".

## If someone comes

A shelf full of games is slow. A small row of rare, sealed editions is one box. It does not stand by the door. It does not come up in the radar. The list names the rare numbers with proof.

## The folder

Title, year, language, sealed or open, proof, photo of the wrap.


## Häufige Fragen

### Open it once and stick it shut again?

Then it is open. The list says so.

### A cellar?

Only if it is dry.

### Every game in the certified safe?

No. The rare sealed edition, if the sum requires it.
