NES Condition Notes
Loose NES carts often show yellowed or sun-faded end labels, and pin-connector corrosion is common on carts that sat in damp storage — worth a contact clean and a boot test before assuming a cart's dead. CIB copies most commonly show corner-wear or crushing on the box's bottom corners, the weakest point in NES box construction.

How we get to your offer
We pull the live market comp for Gradius on NES, then apply the same locked rates we use on every trade-in: 75% of comp in cash, or 100% in store credit. No lowball guesswork, no per-item haggling. The comp is the only input, and the math is the same for a common nes cart and a grail.
