I'm like that too. If a player is nit-picking then I'll invest in a game (for instance, despite its supposed irratations, I'm investing in Reah: Face The Unknown).

Also, big boxes can be a factor. In the UK we use DVD boxes for all our games. But sometimes a game in either small Jewel case or massive cardboard boxes can put me off. I'd rather spend a few pounds extra for a DVD box of a game than a chunky big box. I have a house, not a warehouse.
