 My shelves that I keep my games on for some reason feel moist to the touch, but it could also be that I keep my game room at like 60 degrees. Are my shelves really moist or are they just cold and can this damage the CE boxes?

 The moisture is only your imagination, it just feels that way because the surface is cold and your applying pressure when touching the shelves. Your mind doesn't have "wet sensors" but it attributes wetness to cold and pressure. Thus, when there's cold and pressure involved, as in touching cold shelves, your mind also categorizes this as wet incorrectly as well. Much like an optical illusion.

thanks cause I was a bit worried because I touched the shelves and was like why the f*ck is this wet. I was a bit worried about putting my new FF 13-2 CE on the shelf because of the wet feel. Lol video gaming has made me become so paranoid :D, but thanks this defiantely helps.
