Safe to remove price tag on a sealed SNES game while using Goo-gone? Empty Safe to remove price tag on a sealed SNES game while using Goo-gone?

I've found a dynamite de-sticky-fier at my local arts & supplies store (can't remember the name off the top of my head) along with a little peeler thingy. I've used it before to remove tags on new items but there is a SNES game I've got which has a price tag on it ( Mad ) that I want to remove but I am scared it could damage the seal. I looked over the sticked guide but that seems a bit outdated since it mentions no goo removers.

Anyone have advice? I'll post pics of the tools later when I'm home Smile

Removing some stickers may be a pain in the ass.
I found nothing better then fingernail peeling. :rabbit:
Water won't help with the glue, steam.. well.. it will damage only. c2h5oh .. well it will make a hole and discolour the whole thing.

Uhh, I said the guide does NOT go over how to use goo-gone and whatnot well. Those things you leave on for a little while and because they're based on ethanol (alcohol) it limits the glues effectiveness and makes it easy to remove the tag...
