I know a certain podcaster picked one of these up recently. Was curious if someone could give me a value on this one. I have no clue what they go for. Thanks.

$375 is a very fair price actually. If you can get it for that or a little less, go scoop it up.

A single pic from a bad angle and without it playing something would have me asking questions first thinking about pricing/buying later.

At my request he added a few more images to the ad. Thoughts?

Idiot needs to show it working. You always show a working picture for something that requires 3 digits.

Asked him for a picture of this working "I actually just got rid of all my games and controllers. I was just going to store this but figured if someone else could enjoy it I would get rid of it"

Grab some carts and two controller and RUN, do not walk, over there to try it out. If he won't let you test it, walk away. Take cash and offer a little lower anyway, most people expect it and if you have cash to show them, it's more tempting. If it is working, $375 is still a great price.

This just further confirms my suspicion that my collecting won't take a step forward unless I move to the Midwest.

I know where a Nintendo TV is at right now in a local shop. Maybe they are just more common in the midwest?

To be serious, I'm fairly certain my area was mostly plundered by older collectors in the late '90s and early 2000s.  Getting into the game late as I did left me with just scraps to chase.

Just received an email stating he'd take $325. I don't have the cash or the space sadly. :(

I'd totally jump on that as long as it's tested first
