GRADE YOUR TITLE

The first X-ray grading for video games

We look inside the box without opening it

X-rays are the tool TGMGrading uses to see what the eye cannot see in a sealed title: contents, components, anomalies. We open nothing, we document. Every finding goes into the report with the image that shows it. The scan is an additional service: you add it to your grading order when you need it.

Under the scan

Five things the X-ray shows

We look inside the package without opening it. These are the findings that go into the report.

Internal integrity

Tampering and replacements inside a product that is still sealed.

Shapes and thickness

Manuals and inserts, with every finding on original conformity.

Internal components

Number and arrangement of everything inside the package.

Screws and assembly

Screws and components still original, or replaced over the years.

Internal electronics

Circuits, serials and board types under the shell.

Real scans

The images that go into the report

No renderings: these are X-rays taken in our own lab.

  • X-ray scan: the cartridge visible inside the box, still closed
    The game inside the box, still closed
  • Close-up X-ray scan of the circuit board of a cartridge
    The board: chips, traces and solder joints
  • X-ray scan of a sealed cartridge showing shell, screws and board
    Shell and screws, in their place
  • X-ray scan of a sealed title shot from the edge
    From the edge: thickness and internal volumes

An invisible but decisive check: no other European grader puts it in the report.

Why it matters

Knowing what is inside

On a sealed title the risk is entirely invisible: the box says one thing, the inside may say another. The scan moves the conversation from impressions to findings.

You know what you are buying

The contents of the package are verified before the title changes hands, not after a purchase has gone wrong.

Internal condition, not just the outside

A flawless box can hold a reworked inside: the X-ray shows shell, screws and board without breaking the seal.

Consistency with what is declared

What the listing promises and what the scan finds have to match. When they do not, the report says it.

What is inside stops being a guess: it goes into the report, with the images that document it.
