Quoted from Stoomer:Good for the guy who's closer considering buying these games who's wasn't scared away by all the horror stories of Jack's games perpetuated by somewhat hysterical online posters. I heard from countless sources over the years that Jack's games are in terrible shape and to STAY AWAY, yet here's a guy who managed to buy a bunch and sell most of them off...hmmm...something doesn't add up? Alotta BS, posturing, and parroting on these forums...RGP before it, and now here on Spinside. YMMV...

That's what I always remember hearing too. To stay away as it was a bunch of poorly stored games in bad condition. I pictured them being half rotted in a leaky barn or something. Seeing the pics at the top of this post looks far more promising. Like you say now it makes me wonder why so many tried to steer everyone clear from this pile of games.
I have never dealt with Jack but I remember in my early days of collecting he was buying up woodrails like crazy. This was back when the market for them was pretty strong and the Europeans where buying them up as well. Even though he likely bought right at the time I bet he is taking a considerable loss at $125 a game. Just may be a consideration as to why he is hesitant to deal.
