Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: modest9797 on June 22, 2008, 02:32:33 PM Hardware -
PS1 PS2 NES Genesis SEGA CD 32x I just need to know what my maximum should be for buying these and what my max should be for reselling them. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Marriott_Guy on June 22, 2008, 03:06:04 PM game- caltron 6 in 1 nes i always see different prices for it. how much is it really worth? Hello James. I have seen these go for $250 and up for this Caltron cart. It seems that timing (like everything) is paramount in trying to buy/sell this rarity. Maybe some Nintendo experts could chime in and help out on this. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Marriott_Guy on June 22, 2008, 03:08:30 PM Hardware - PS1, PS2, NES, Genesis, SEGA CD, 32x I just need to know what my maximum should be for buying these and what my max should be for reselling them. It all depends on if you want a good working loose model or a top of line MINT CIB system. Can you explain your goals a bit more? Thanks! Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: modest9797 on June 22, 2008, 08:23:27 PM All I am looking for is these consoles in complete working condition.
(BTW: after checking out your collection it seems like I am asking the right person :)) Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Marriott_Guy on June 23, 2008, 07:45:12 AM All I am looking for is these consoles in complete working condition. For working models with no games but have the controllers, power and AV cable, expect to pay around $15-$20 for a loose PS1, Sega Genesis (version 1 or 2), NES (version 1) or Sega CD (version 2 - version 1 is a bit more). These are usually sold in bundled with games, so if you want to have a modest haul of games (10 or so), add on another $15 or so. The Sega 32X is rarely sold only and is usually bundled with a Genesis. The 32X is cheap on it's own - around $15 tops. As for the PS2, these run around $45-$55 or so, sometimes a little cheaper. Once again, start adding on the games/other accessories and the price goes up a great deal. Hope this helps you out. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: modest9797 on June 23, 2008, 12:12:59 PM How much would you expect to pay for a PS2 with all necessary hookups, the system, 4 controllers (2 of which are 3rd party), and 2 Memory cards?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Marriott_Guy on June 23, 2008, 12:56:33 PM How much would you expect to pay for a PS2 with all necessary hookups, the system, 4 controllers (2 of which are 3rd party), and 2 Memory cards? Around $70 or so, assuming it is the slimline model and no-frills controllers and memory cards. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: modest9797 on June 23, 2008, 01:11:56 PM It is the original model. Is $60 a good deal?
(Also a quick side question, are all PS1 games backwards compatible?) Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Marriott_Guy on June 23, 2008, 01:55:18 PM It is the original model. Is $60 a good deal? (Also a quick side question, are all PS1 games backwards compatible?) The 1st model of PS2 is not as reliable as the slimline - take that into consideration when making your purchase. Yes - all PS1 games are compatible with the PS2 (the PS2, both models, actually have a PS1 chip installed in them to do be able to be fully backwards compatible). Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: BadEnoughDude on June 23, 2008, 02:01:25 PM I'll second what Marriott_Guy said. I had to send in my original PS2 3 or 4 times to get it fixed. I eventually just replaced it with a slim because I was sick of the hassle. You'd be better off just holding off until you can find the slim. It shouldn't cost you much more than what you'd spend on this one.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Tan on June 23, 2008, 02:41:18 PM It is the original model. Is $60 a good deal? (Also a quick side question, are all PS1 games backwards compatible?) $60 is a decent deal, but considering that the older models haven't been sold since 2004, even the last of the original models will have a lot of mileage on them. Disc read errors are still frequent for these models, especially with the older blue bottomed CD-ROM games of which the PS2 library has a good couple hundred or so. As far as compatibility, there are a few dozen titles incompatible with certain models and systems but not an overwhelming amount. For the most part the newer "slims" are better for PS1 play. Also as it's been 4 years for the older model, finding new accessories like the broadband adapter (built into the slim model), remote (IR receiver is already built into the slim) vertical stands etc may be harder to find new now. I've had a slim in my game room for 3 1/2 years now. It gets a lot of usage between long marathon play sessions and PS1 games. It's never frozen on me, gave me any errors of any kind and I have nothing negative to say about it at all. For between $99 and $129 or less brand new depending on where you buy it, it's worth the price to not have to think about reliability. First party controllers and memory cards are only $19.99 a piece new and the Katana officially licensed wireless controllers for $25 are much better than the Logitech ones or any other brand for that matter.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: bum-man on June 24, 2008, 08:09:15 AM It is the original model. Is $60 a good deal? I have two of the original models, the first I got for free at a garage sale. They guy said it wasn't working. When I got it home it worked fine for most games and a tweak of the laser got it working for all. The second came with cables, two controllers, one memory card and it was in the box for an original x-box?! I got that lot for $25 at a local Goodwill. So there are better deals if you have time to wait and look around. I think $60 is a good deal compared to what a game store may change you but it may be much harder to take it back if you have issues. Like the others said you may be better off with a slim unless you can fix it yourself. Try checking Craigslist for your area, you can find some deals on there. Good luck!Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Marriott_Guy on June 24, 2008, 02:56:56 PM tmnt tournament fighters nes and thanks for the help. Depends on if it is CIB or not.... Loose - around $27 or so, CIB, maybe $55. I am not a huge NES collector - some of the experts may be able to give more accurate info on this game.

Saw this at the flea market, I think the brand was Entex (or something like that) it looked to be factory sealed but I wasn't sure. I thought the price sticker said $10 and I thought about it until I realized it actually said $100. I'm just curious to see what it's really worth. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Cobra on June 30, 2008, 12:36:17 AM Dragon Force OST
1996 http://www.rpgfan.com/soundtracks/dragonforce/index.html I was wondering how much this little baby is worth. I was thinking of selling it, but would also probably trade it for Phantasy Star Online OST (http://www.rpgfan.com/soundtracks/pso/index.html) and Phantasy Star Online Songs of RAGOL Odyssey (http://www.rpgfan.com/soundtracks/pso-ep1&2/index.html) together. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Sirgin on July 17, 2008, 04:47:54 PM How much would a loose (no box) Sega Dreamcast with 2 original controllers, all leads and VMU cost?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: logical123 on July 17, 2008, 05:05:27 PM US$25-45
If you get lucky a a thrift where you live, even less probably. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on July 19, 2008, 09:07:43 AM Im curious to know how much a CiB copy of Secret of Monkey Island 2 (PC) goes for these days. I've never really been much for PC gaming and my wife just found it in an old box so if it is worth anything i'd definately be willing to sell or trade it.
Oh and also K.C. Munchkin for the Odyssey. Some guy sent it to me with a lot of games I purchased and i've never had (or plan to) get an Odyssey. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: jamespmt on July 21, 2008, 12:03:41 PM how much for nes tetris tengen?

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: logical123 on July 21, 2008, 03:18:08 PM well... you can expect to pay in the $15-35 range. I usually see them for about $30 at classic game stores.

Here's what I've requested from his lot:
(Lemmings 1) Game Gear Genesis Master System PSP Lemmings 2: the Tribes (Genesis) 3D Lemmings (PS1, in one of those early long boxes) All games are CIB. He's asking for $45 before shipping. Do you think that's a fair price? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Sirgin on August 24, 2008, 05:01:20 AM There are 6 games in there, right? Well then, if you think a CIB game is worth $7.5, then yes!
I'm not sure what these Lemmings games are worth though. I only have Lemmings for the SNES. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Chainclaw on August 24, 2008, 01:14:07 PM Not as much as you would think. A few years back a very large quantity of NIB power gloves were found in a warehouse somewhere and flooded the market. It might have been the Japanese power glove, I'm not 100% sure. If you check e-bay right now there are a couple new Japanese Power Gloves for $22 and $40. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: BadEnoughDude on August 24, 2008, 02:05:16 PM Thought I'd throw these up and see what you guys had to say. I know they're not worth much, just want to be sure that they're worth the $24 I paid for them.

They don't show up often in the usual places, the demand for them is weird (way less people looking for them, but the people that want them might really want them), there is almost no way to track rarity for them.
Pirate carts for the Famicom that are worth the most will pirate games on the cart. Such as Street Fighter 2, Final Fantasy 7, Somari (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bq_SmnSykK8). The value of a Famicom cart like most of those is going to entirely boil down to how much effort you put into selling it. Forgot to mention the Honey Bee. That alone is probably worth the $24 by itself. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on August 26, 2008, 09:39:56 PM I'm going to re-post mine with the hopes that it just got skipped over.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Sirgin on August 27, 2008, 12:50:02 PM How much would a Sega Saturn with all the hookups and stuff cost me? $10 at a garage sale, probably more on eBay, like $20.With "stuff", do you mean the controllers or additional hardware? Because acessories will bump up the price a bit. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: logical123 on August 27, 2008, 08:28:03 PM How much would a Sega Saturn with all the hookups and stuff cost me? $10 at a garage sale, probably more on eBay, like $20.With "stuff", do you mean the controllers or additional hardware? Because acessories will bump up the price a bit. Don't listen to Sirgin... :P :) ;) On e(vil)bay, it will run you about $40-55 with hookups, controllers. Also, look for ones bundled with games. In stores, they usually sell saturns for about $50-65. Personally, I have NEVER seen one in the wild. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: BadEnoughDude on August 27, 2008, 08:41:56 PM I've got 2 Saturn systems.

On average (That is they key here), Saturn's online will run you $40-55. Bar none. If you find one cheaper online, they you have nabbed an outlier, or one that doesn't adhere to the normal average. Bad Enough Dude was lucky, and many people are lucky. I was lucky in getting a Virtual Boy for free. The average cost on a VB is about $25-40, sometimes less, sometimes more.
And anyway, did you even find one that cheap? Cause that is one of the consoles on your wishlist.

All I know is that they're "the really big ones", so I'm assuming they are AES games. What's a good price to pay for these games? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: logical123 on September 22, 2008, 06:40:30 AM For the NEO games, $10-500 each. If he desn't know much about them, offer $12.50 a cart. You might be able to get them lower, especially if they aren't AES carts. If they are MVS, then $2-25 each, offer $5 each.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Sirgin on September 22, 2008, 08:15:43 AM For the NEO games, $10-500 each. Just thinking about that makes my head spin. Are there alot of people who actualy have a Neo Geo? (seeing it's so expensive)Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: NES_Rules on September 22, 2008, 08:41:25 AM For the NEO games, $10-500 each.

Would you happen to know which games are closer to the $500 range, i.e. which ones I should definitely buy?I can probably get them very cheap, yesterday he had a set of the old Lawn Darts in the box and he was telling us about how they go for $100+ on eBay, and ended up just giving them to my dad for $1.

There are LOTS. Any of the King of Fighters games, Garou: Mark of the Wolves, Art of Fighting 3: Path of the Warrior, Last Blade, Last Blade 2, Any of the Metal Slug games, Rage of the Dragons, any of the Real Bout Fatal Fury games, Samurai Showdown 3-5, Voltage Fighter Gowcaizer, World Heroes Perfect, Neo Turf Masters, Ninja Master's, Stakes Winner, etc etc. The fact of the matter is that pretty much is worth buying. Half of the games in the library are worth $100+. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: logical123 on September 22, 2008, 03:25:28 PM For the NEO games, $10-500 each.

Buy them all, silly! @Sirgin: There is one game for the AES that fetched (If I remember correctly) over $10000 the last time it was sold. The usual most expensive is about $950. And about people owning them, yes, quite a few of the members on here own them. Off the top of my head, Ghost Soldier and Marriot_Guy. http://www.neo-geo.com/guides/aesguide.html - This is a really good guide for American/European & Japanese AES Games. Hopefully this can give you an idea NES_Rules.

There is a brand new one at Wal Mart for $30, and I'm thinking about picking it up. Is that a seperate device ???It plugs into one of the cartridge slots and gives an Opera web browser over WiFi. $30 sounds ok for a new one. Just be aware you need to use either unencrypted or WEP WiFi, although if you play online with it you'll be aware of that anyway. :) Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Sirgin on October 01, 2008, 11:33:26 AM It plugs into one of the cartridge slots and gives an Opera web browser over WiFi. Cool, I didn't know that. Thanks for answering. :)Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Chainclaw on October 01, 2008, 07:17:28 PM If you want it to actually use, be aware it is a really really crappy web browser. I know of one copy that has been passed between a handful of people for free, each person pawning it off on the next unsuspecting sucker.
If you want it for collection purposes, it's interesting to own because it's a non-gaming application for the DS, it includes a ram expansion that goes in the GBA slot, and I'm pretty sure it's DS Lite only. If you want it for resale purposes, for an item that is still on store shelves, it seems to be going for more than retail on eBay. Unfortunately eBay is a bad place to judge the actual "going rate", because games and software like this often go for significantly more if it's an item that is not available in certain countries, and the seller ships internationally. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: blcklblskt on October 01, 2008, 09:42:54 PM My dad has it, and yeah, its garbage. Its way too slow.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: logical123 on October 12, 2008, 09:33:16 PM Yes, with shipping. Not bad then! what about a regular NES, 2 controllers and hookups. No box. $5-45 Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Mr. Ksoft on October 12, 2008, 09:57:32 PM Too late, decided against it. Figured an SMS wasn't top priority for me, plus the seller didn't think the controllers worked. While I initially thought "sure, I can just use a Genesis pad" I thought some more and decided that the controller ports on the SMS probably didn't work, which I've heard is a common problem. So I passed it up and bought some more Genesis games instead :P BTW, the figure you gave Moriya Hanzo for the NES is preeeeetty broad there. I'd say more like $5-20. I got my NES for $30 with one controller, one zapper, 3 games, and missing every single screw that held the top of the system on, if that's anything to go by. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: NES_Rules on October 12, 2008, 10:27:23 PM what about a regular NES, 2 controllers and hookups. No box. $40-50 online or game store.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Paully3433 on November 07, 2008, 11:41:55 AM Yeah I dunno how I feel, It was kind of a neat story, I won it on an auction on ebay, and I didn't know it was sealed until it came. And I won it in the morning, and a few hours later my wife went into labor and had my daughter, so I always remember what day I got it and stuff. SO in the end I will probably hold onto it.

What was the original price of the GB Micro?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: blcklblskt on November 17, 2008, 11:06:06 PM Believe it or not, the GBM was like $100 when it came out, putting it as more expensive than an SP. But I got mine at Wal Mart for $35 on Black Friday a few years ago :).
Although I absolutely love it, I probably wouldn't spend more than $30-35 to get one, maybe $40 boxed. Its a neat little handheld though... But you could also count it as an investment, seeing that only about 2 million were sold worldwide. I'm predicting that these will end up being quite rare and expensive in the future of collecting.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: jamespmt on November 20, 2008, 07:56:10 PM why?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: BadEnoughDude on November 20, 2008, 09:01:58 PM It makes your question easier to read and understand, which makes it easier to answer. It's just a measure of courtesy.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Sirgin on November 21, 2008, 06:10:09 AM punctuationplease Agreed.why? Because if you ask people to look up a price for you (seeing you can't be bothered to do some research yourself) you should atleast do the effort of making it readable. ;)Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: jamespmt on November 24, 2008, 02:22:57 PM why? yeah sorry i was in a bad mood when posting that. Miracle Piano System for Nes, with all hookups, and instructions. Miracle Piano Nes game, with instructions. Nes system with 2 controllers. also shipped. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Feechy on December 19, 2008, 07:43:24 PM What's a fair price for the Atari Touch Me? The asking price is $20.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: modest9797 on December 19, 2008, 09:56:38 PM What's a fair price for the Atari Touch Me? The asking price is $20. The only one on eBay was for $99.99, but then again, that person may just be trying to trick someone. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: modest9797 on December 20, 2008, 11:16:19 PM Super Nintendo w/ 2 controllers, super scope 6, connecter cord/plug, 4 games (Mrs. Pac Man, Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, Madden Football) $35.00
------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sega Genisis w/ 2 controllers, connecter cord/plug, NHL 94, Madden 94, World series baseball, PGA Golf 2, Samurai Showdown, Sonic 3, Sonic Classics, Hard Drivin', NBA Jam, Sonic $30.00 Are either of these good deals? I know I could probobly find them cheaper, but I havent had any luck over the past year. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Sirgin on December 21, 2008, 08:26:32 AM I think so, yeah.
But then again, you could probably find them for less in the wild. The question is whether you want to wait for them to pop up in the wild and how much you want those systems. If you really want them, I'd say go for it. $35 and $30 doesn't look too bad to me. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: logical123 on December 21, 2008, 09:42:49 AM Both of those are great deals. SNES's tend to go for about $40 alone on ebay, and Sonic 3 for the genny goes for about $8, so factoring in that, both are pretty good deals. I'd say buy 'em if you have the chance.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: neskid on December 21, 2008, 05:42:44 PM Is firefighter f.d. for the ps2 for $20 a good price?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Moriya Hanzo on December 21, 2008, 05:52:40 PM yes, i have flipped that game for $40+ a few times. Very hard game to find as well as playing.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: neskid on January 02, 2009, 12:00:29 AM Thanks Moriya Hanzo, i went back to pick it up and it was gone i thought that was gonna happen.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Moriya Hanzo on January 02, 2009, 12:12:37 AM yeah i hate when that happens to me too.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: BadEnoughDude on January 02, 2009, 12:21:04 AM Is firefighter f.d. for the ps2 for $20 a good price? I've never, ever seen this game in the wild, for any price. I'd like to get it though. The arcade version was fun. I'd like to see how it translates. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Moriya Hanzo on January 02, 2009, 12:46:10 AM i have had a total of 2 copies. 1 i found here in Ga and 1 i found in Va.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: cverz2 on January 02, 2009, 07:03:54 AM My wife and I rented it a long time ago and was looking for it ever since. I finally found it this summer on craigslist for 3 dollars. :)
I had thoughts of flipping it, and making some good money. BUT, MAN is it hard to find. So we kept it. Plus my wife loves it. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Moriya Hanzo on January 31, 2009, 09:53:25 PM Quick question. Mario Paint boxed with mouse pad, mouse and game. Box in pretty good condition.

I managed to find one for $10 so I'd suggest holding off unless you really want it. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Tan on February 01, 2009, 07:15:21 AM Quick question.

Depends on just how CIB it is. If it has all of the inserts + the mouse cleaner as well, then I'd buy it at that price. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on February 10, 2009, 09:27:18 PM Found a couple Saturn games hiding in some loose CD based games at a pawn shop and just wondering what they are and if they are worth grabbing.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: NES_Rules on February 22, 2009, 10:11:22 AM What would loose Dragon Warrior 2, 3, and 4 be worth?

Very popular mixed with slight rarity for #'s 2 &3, and quite a bit of rarity for 4 = a lot of $$$. :) Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Barracuda on February 24, 2009, 06:54:50 PM What would a watermelon N64 be worth with a watermelon controller and cables. I can pick one up for $12.00.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: asz22 on February 24, 2009, 07:23:37 PM like 50 to 60 dollars. That is a great price and I have been looking for one of those for along time.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on February 27, 2009, 01:04:22 PM If you can get them for under 100 a piece you did excellent.
I knew a kid who spent i think 150-200 on one. He got sick of destroying the foam ones.

some/all is supposed to be CIB/New need to call to get better details but i wanted to do a general price check first. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: BadEnoughDude on March 07, 2009, 05:50:19 PM If it's complete and like new, I'd probably pay $135 for it, especially if it has a couple of decent games. CIB VB games almost always fetch nice prices online.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Moriya Hanzo on March 07, 2009, 06:37:04 PM Its one on craigslist for $90. Comes with 3 games (1 is CIB)
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on March 07, 2009, 07:54:13 PM So then if it turns out that that thing is actually sealed then more than worth it?
I guess i'll have to check it out and see what games there are and what not. I've seen an ad for it for 2+ months now so i finally decided it might be worth checking out. That and the very old large scythe... thats in excellent condition and only 65 bucks. Who doesn't want to be the grim reaper. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: NES_Rules on March 10, 2009, 12:15:53 PM What would a boxed (possibly complete) Sega Pico be worth these days? There were no games that I remember, definitely not the Sonic game though, I looked all through the store for that one.
There's one at Goodwill for $8 or $9 and I don't really want it, so I'll probably end up offering it up for sale (at a good price). I'm just afraid the shipping on it will make it too expensive since it is a rather large box. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on March 10, 2009, 01:31:51 PM You might make 10-30$s off of it. If you start it lower you might not even make that. It really depends. I got mine for about 40 shipped but i have seen them go as low as 15-20 shipped.
Shipping it should cost you ~20. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Barracuda on March 19, 2009, 08:21:37 PM Mischief Makers
Pokemon snap Blast Corps Mario Tennis Mario Party Super Smash Bros Kirby 64 Starfox 64 Perfect Dark Jetforce Gemini Starcraft64 South Park Super Mario 64 Conkers Bad Fur Day Zelda Ocarina of Time Cruisin USA Are they worth $50? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: NES_Rules on March 19, 2009, 08:25:44 PM Mischief Makers I don't see anything that's worth a whole lot, but all good titles, and it's roughly $3 a game, so I would say it's worth $50. Not a spectacular deal though.

Mario Party Super Smash Bros Kirby 64 Jetforce Gemini Super Mario 64 Conkers Bad Fur Day Zelda Ocarina of Time Those are worth more than 50$s alone. Jump on that. Even if you don't want to keep them you could resell them for more than that. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Barracuda on March 20, 2009, 03:57:27 AM Thanks guys! I don't keep track of N64 prices like I should. There are alot of good titles that I've been wanting to play in this lot so I'll have to pick them up.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Sirgin on March 20, 2009, 11:14:36 AM Are they worth $50? 50 / 16 = 3.125I wouldn't think twice about buying that, but seeing that you're in the U.S. I guess NES_Rules is right and it's not a "good" deal. If you could get the seller down $5-10, I'd say go for it. :) Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: atari_wizard on March 20, 2009, 11:16:55 AM I'd buy it. There is a great lot of games to be played. Considering you don't have them, you'd easily spend more money getting them on eBay.

First party stuff can still be 10 on the low end and over 25 on the high end. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Sirgin on March 20, 2009, 11:26:08 AM That is an excellent price for those games I thought so too, but NES_Rules seemed to think it was a bad deal so I was careful with my answer. ;)Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: NES_Rules on March 20, 2009, 11:57:07 AM That is an excellent price for those games I thought so too, but NES_Rules seemed to think it was a bad deal so I was careful with my answer. ;)Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Sirgin on March 20, 2009, 11:58:09 AM I said it was not a spectacular deal. I never said it was a bad deal at all. It's more on the fair side of things, a spectacular deal would have been if it was $20 for them all. At $50, its still a good buy just not find of the century material.

The mere fact that you'll get it out of there maybe enough for them to give it to you!

You're going to need to play off the picture taking as getting an idea of size to show your wife, so she can give you the ok to put it in your house. I'm semi friendly with the owner of the gym and only asked the casual counter girl about pics. So unless she found it incredibly weird enough to mention I'm in the clear. Besides its not like he can easily look up a price point on it online either. Worst case senario he'll probably just price it as any bike of the same age. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on July 06, 2012, 06:18:18 PM Crabby, you DO realize that the combo cart's inside that as well, right? The INCREDIBLY RARE combo cart?
I would fly to Canada to pick that up with $500 in hand, and try to work them from $100 up. If you get it, make sure to take pictures for us for the site. It looks like it was well maintained. EDIT: In case anyone else hasn't gotten the gravity of the find, the cartridge that's in the bike is rarer than Stadium Events...by a bit.

I'm not sure if the cart combo is inside or not, thats one of the things I've been trying to find out. There are no nintendo markings on the bike at all so I was under the impression that there was just a board of the game mounted inside the machine. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on July 06, 2012, 06:29:22 PM There's a peripheral that hooks into the Super Nintendo inside, using the expansion port. It relays information from the Super Nintendo to the peripheral, which then relays it to the bike and vice versa. It uses a physical cartridge, not just a board.

[img width=700 height=933]http://i.imgur.com/Re1Nd.jpg[/img] Typical Atari prototypes run in the range of $40-$80. With this being an Activision prototype, and River Raid at that, I'm not sure if it'd be higher. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: RobotCowhand on July 12, 2012, 09:30:41 AM Well, I'm thinking of throwing him $100 for the 2600 and cart. Let's see what happens.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Tynstar on July 12, 2012, 09:43:53 AM Mtnt Heavy Sixer in the box is worth 100 IMO. With that said I think 100 for both is a good starting point.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Razor Knuckles on August 10, 2012, 10:40:10 PM just picked up a gamecube with the digital av out port, no cables at all or controllers, for $20...not sure how much it's worth, does anyone know? Honestly about $10 with the console alone. The digital A/V port means almost nothing in North America as Nintendo never released the Component cables over here. Though you can import them for about $100. Id just use a Wii with component cables instead. The A/V ports mean nothing here. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shepy on August 30, 2012, 09:29:05 AM Price check please. I saw a Matell Intellivision for sale for $50 with 30 some games. Some had the instruction handout things. It is somewhere that I can't bargain whatsoever so i'm wondering if it's a good deal or not. I'm not sure if any of the games are rare but if there's one i should check for I took some pictures.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on August 30, 2012, 09:40:04 AM Seems like a decent deal to me, but do they have the boxes or just the games? Intellivision games are typically fairly cheap, even with the boxes.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shepy on August 30, 2012, 09:48:17 AM Just the games with the little card insert things. Some repeats. I was skeptical because i'm not even sure if it works. The Intellivision looked like it was in good shape on the outside at least. The games were in ok shape, some better then others. I also saw a Collecovision for $35 with 4 games, but didn't know on that either.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on August 30, 2012, 10:50:48 AM Coleco's probably more worthwhile than the INTV.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: techwizard on August 30, 2012, 03:37:25 PM it's a pretty cheap system in general but i would say any bundle is a good deal if it has the system with cables and 30 games, even loose for only $50. depends of course on how many duplicates there are.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shepy on September 04, 2012, 09:40:06 PM http://madison.craigslist.org/vgm/3230782660.html
I'm not sure what to offer. His price has been going down I believe it was 70 dollars last time i looked before now. I'm wondering what to offer and what's the max i should pay. Thanks in advance for any help! Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Razor Knuckles on September 04, 2012, 09:55:50 PM That price is very fair. Getting a NES loose is around $40-50 on average. Complete with box and manual for $65 is very good, assuming the 72 pin connector still works. If not, it is an easy fix and still a fair price.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on September 04, 2012, 10:37:51 PM That's a Canadian Action Set bundle, Project...pick it up!
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: RetroRage on September 06, 2012, 08:12:08 PM I saw a slightly yellow NES with all the cords for sale at my local thrift store for $16.99. Is it worth cleaning up and flipping at that price?

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: InvadErGII on October 09, 2012, 10:01:46 AM I just remembered that somewhere I have a handful of old game boxes. I hadn't thought about them for a while, but after reading more on what some of the more sought after game's boxes can go far, I am hell bent on finding these ASAP. Among them were, I believe, Metal Warriors, Super Mario RPG, and a handful of Jaguar games. Assuming I can find them and they're not beat to hell, any idea on what the bigger name ones might be worth?

Assuming I can find them and they're not beat to hell, any idea on what the bigger name ones might be worth? Depending on condition the Super Mario RPG box could go for $25-60 I would think. Some of the bigger dollar Jaguar boxes would be Air Cars, Breakout 2000, Protector and Towers 2. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: InvadErGII on October 09, 2012, 10:09:01 AM I don't think any of the Jaguar boxes are THAT rare...I remember Brutal Sports Football, Attack of the Mutant Penguins, and possibly White Men Can't Jump? These were all from a while ago.
Metal Warriors is the one I'm really curious about...it took me a long time to track down my copy (this would've been ~2006-7 I think), but I had no idea it had become so valuable. A 7 on NintendoAge isn't too shabby! Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on October 12, 2012, 06:17:42 PM Hey fellow collectors I have a question. I recently responded to a Craigslist ad about some Super NES games. Well, I ask what the games are and the seller tells me this: "Return of the jedi. Pacman 2. Mecarobot golf. Speed world. Bass masters. Addams family. Super play action football.Super bases loaded. All donkeys kongs/marios". Now assuming that all the Donkey Kongs/Mario's means more than just Mario World and DKC, I offered the seller $30. It was more or less an impulse buy, but the question that I have for you is:
Are these worth $30 and did I make a good decision? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on October 12, 2012, 06:39:50 PM All Donkey Kongs/Marios would definitely be a good buy. All 3 DKCs alone would be worth $45 cart only.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: GrayGhost81 on October 12, 2012, 07:13:44 PM All Donkey Kongs/Marios would definitely be a good buy. All 3 DKCs alone would be worth $45 cart only. Right on. Let us know how it turns out Johnny. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on October 12, 2012, 07:23:20 PM I will pick them up Friday and post exactly what games they are. I also plan on reselling them, so if anyone is interested let me know. Don't worry I won't mark them up much higher than what I paid.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shepy on October 12, 2012, 07:49:03 PM So question... my friend has been trying to sell me a Sega Genesis with 2 controllers and Sonic The Hedgehog, I think It's worth about 45 bucks but I'm not an expert on sega... He wants 60 bucks for it... So i'm really wondering what it's worth... Thanks sega people!
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on October 12, 2012, 08:06:50 PM Definitely not 60. Try $40, if that.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Barracuda on October 12, 2012, 08:10:59 PM Personally I'd pay no more than $10-$15. Possibly more if it has the box.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: GrayGhost81 on October 12, 2012, 08:15:31 PM Yeah I don't know if it's a regional thing but in northern NJ Sega Genesis is by far the most common system I see out at garage sales and such. For the complete console and sonic I would offer $20 tops if I really needed it.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on October 12, 2012, 08:25:01 PM So question... my friend has been trying to sell me a Sega Genesis with 2 controllers and Sonic The Hedgehog I was giving his friend some consideration there. I wouldn't pay more than $20 to some random hobo. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: techwizard on October 12, 2012, 08:58:29 PM same here $20, maybe $25 would be my top dollar for finding that in the wild. giving a premium for it being a friend is nice, but i don't think $40 is all that fair to you (unless your local genesis market is pricy). for a friend i wouldn't give more than $30, maybe $35.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on October 13, 2012, 10:30:47 AM Back once again with a pricing question. Here is the ad:
Have over 100 dust covers/cases for OLD SCHOOL NINTENDO (NES), GAMEBOY (GB)/GAMEBOY COLOR (GBC), GAMEBOY ADVANCE (GBA), SUPER NINTENDO (SNES), NINTENDO DS, and PSP. There are 40 blue original NINTENDO (NES) cases, 8 clear NES cases, 40 black dust covers (NES). For a total of 88 NINTENDO (NES) cases. 56 GAMEBOY/GAMEBOY COLOR cases, 14 GBA cases, 2 GAMEGEAR cases, 4 SUPER NINTENDO cases and 2 PSP cases for a total of 130 cases. All cases are $1 each. Will sell only in minimum amounts of 5 ($5). If you want to purchase the entire lot will give a great deal on, or if you want to purchase all of one particular kind of case, will also give a deal on. I'm really considering getting the NES dust sleeves and the blue and clear cases. I think the 8 clear cases are actually pink ones because I counted 8 pink ones and no clear ones in the picture. What do you guys think? Anyone else interested in these? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on October 13, 2012, 10:45:50 AM If you grabbed all the NES cases/covers I'd try and get them for around $30-$35. If you REALLY want them maybe $45, but not much over that. If he is not willing to budge much from his $1 per case price I wouldn't feel bad walking away. These kinds of lots come up every once and a while.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on October 13, 2012, 11:20:03 AM Okay, thanks Crabmaster. I also listened to the podcasts on YouTube and enjoyed them very much.

The person that had the SNES games for $30 has contacted me and said they had 91 NES games. I looked at pictures they sent me and there were no duplicates. I did see a few Mega Man games and Dusty Diamonds All Star Softball. I offered $150 for the 91 NES games and 9 SNES games. What do you guys think?

I looked at pictures they sent me and there were no duplicates. I did see a few Mega Man games and Dusty Diamonds All Star Softball. I offered $150 for the 91 NES games and 9 SNES games. What do you guys think? That comes out to around $1.50 per game, so if there's even a handful of quality titles I'd say it's a very fine price, even if it turns out there are a few duplicates.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Silent Scythe on October 15, 2012, 06:32:40 PM Thinking of Selling my unopened Mega Man 9 Press Kit. Anyone got any idea how much it's worth?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on October 15, 2012, 07:16:04 PM Thinking of Selling my unopened Mega Man 9 Press Kit. Anyone got any idea how much it's worth? If its in the condition that most of them are you can get between $400-$500 without too much trouble. If you are one of the lucky few and the seal doesn't have any holes you could probably hold out for a premium though, like $750ish maybe? Very cool item though. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Fleach on October 17, 2012, 09:58:48 PM I actually posted this question in a separate thread before I realized the Price Check Thread. So, to recap I found a Sega Master system with a bunch of games being auctioned for charity.
I couldn't get a good view of the games but I think they are: Double Dragon, Streets of Rage, Space Harrier, Olympic (something), Choplifter, Altered Beast, Shinobi, World Soccer, and Golf. Some NES stuff is included in the lot too: Super Mario Bros. 3, the zapper gun, Mario Bros/Duck Hunt, Tetris, Double Dragon II, Golgo13, and Clayfighter for the SNES The current bid for all this is $160. Is it still worth going for considering it might approach the $200 mark? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Razor Knuckles on October 17, 2012, 10:15:44 PM ^ Unless you want to throw a lot of money to a good cause its always worth it.
But in short, NO! Those are what we collectors call commons. Their so common that they can be found for a few bucks a piece loose. And not really that much more complete. The Master System adds a little flavor to the lot but not that much. Are these complete with box and manual? Unless the Tetris is a complete Tengen Tetris I wouldn't even bother with this lot. But thats just me. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Fleach on October 17, 2012, 10:25:54 PM The Tetris isn't the Tengen one. Since everything is in a display case I have no clue if the manuals are in the boxes. the Master Sytems games have their boxes but the NES stuff is loose. I knew that it was all common stuff too, but it is kind of is convenient to have all that at one price.
I'm starting to think that whoever upped the bid to $160 (from $70) desperately wants this lot... or he has more money than sense. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: blcklblskt on October 17, 2012, 10:26:22 PM Yeah, $160 is definitely on the high side. Is anything boxed? Like Razor said, a boxed Tengen Tetris would make the lot worthwhile, and a boxed Master System would definitely be a nice find.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Fleach on October 17, 2012, 10:28:38 PM The console itself is loose, the games are boxed (removed from the boxes for display which I don't understand why), and the NES stuff is loose.
I'd be more tempted if the console had its box. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Razor Knuckles on October 17, 2012, 10:33:05 PM ^ I could find all the listed stuff you had for around $100. I'm a patient-cheap-ass when it comes to collecting.
Just saying... Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Fleach on October 17, 2012, 10:51:50 PM Patience is a virtue. And I know if enough time and persistence, anything can be found for the right price.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on October 23, 2012, 07:54:39 AM Saw this ad on craigslist and I'm very tempted to buy it. What do you guys think?
SUPER NINTENDO CONSOLE ~ SNES ~ In excellent condition! COMPLETE + 18 GAMES & 2 Controllers. Very good condition! Video cable and A/V cable, and some of the best SNES games ever made! Including: Super Mario Kart Donkey Kong Country (TWO identical games) in case one breaks, because this is the best game ever Jeorpardy Deluxe Edition Kirby Super Star 8 Games in One NBA Jam Yoshi´s Island Super Mario World 2 (2 duplicate games, again, in case one breaks. Great game!) Yoshi´s Cookie Stunt Race Lion King Super Mario All-Stars *includes original Super Mario Bros. and all the other greats Super Bases Loaded Madden ´95 Madden ´96 Troy Aikman Football Super Mario RPG Legend of the 7 Stars Art of Fighting Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Duke.Togo on October 23, 2012, 08:08:04 AM If it's Craigslist I would start low and see what happens.

I'm not sure what past models have sold for recently, but I'd slap $100-$200. $100 if I wasnt sure I could get it working and $200 if they were on the fence and I thought I could get it running. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on October 23, 2012, 10:44:01 AM Thanks Duke, if I get the lot and you still need Super Mario RPG, I'll give you the first offer. Also, can anyone tell me what game is between Shingen the Ruler and Skate or Die in this ad, and what game is at the very top of the center row.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on October 23, 2012, 11:01:00 AM Craigslist ad: Sharp NES TV, missing one leg. Says it's not working, but is probably just dirty because it works on other devices. Doesn't appear to have any controllers. Not sure if there is a cover for the cart slot. Sorry I didn't give you a complete answer last night, but the description you gave me was typical of Sharp NES TVs. I'd ask for the amount Crabby mentioned. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on October 23, 2012, 11:36:54 AM The lot with the SNES and games was sold on eBay. :(
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: bickman2k on October 23, 2012, 11:54:32 AM They are asking $150, so I'll probably hold off on it.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on October 23, 2012, 01:40:55 PM They are asking $150, so I'll probably hold off on it. Even if it doesn't work its probably worth $150. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Duke.Togo on October 23, 2012, 05:24:30 PM They are asking $150, so I'll probably hold off on it. Even if it doesn't work its probably worth $150. I'd agree, even if it's toast you could part it out if everything else is there. That door on the front seems to be missing/broken often. I'd jump on one of these if I found one. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Quackula on October 23, 2012, 06:09:43 PM There's been one of those Sharp NES tvs sitting at my local flea market for years. I really should ask the guy for a price one of these days... don't think I need yet another tv though.

Heck, I'd make a drive to get one for the right price if it wasn't too far. Knowing the guy who has it, I imagine that at best I'd be able to talk him into selling it for fair market value. I don't think I'd have much of a flip opportunity. I'm imagining he wants a good $200 for it if he's even willing to sell it off. Main reason I want it is that I've heard rumors that apparently it has far better image quality than any other NES around. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on October 28, 2012, 08:10:54 AM Hey, anyone know the values of these SNES cart only games?
Battletoads/Double Dragon Joe & Mac Paperboy 2 Romance of the Three Kingdoms III: Dragon of Destiny The Lost Vikings Twisted Tales of Spike McFang Terminator 2: Judgement Day Jurassic Park 2: The Chaos Continues I ask, because I wanted to trade them and someone wants to buy them off me instead.

Single common games like that you can check pretty easily on ebay. Just make sure you use the completed listing. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on October 28, 2012, 09:01:58 AM Will do. I got another guy in Ottawa that wants to buy my entire list of SNES games.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: NES_Rules on October 29, 2012, 06:56:36 AM The shipping cost to Canada is ridiculous. I can ship something to Alaska or Hawaii for $11.35 but ship that same package just 300 miles over the border and it costs $33.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: techwizard on October 29, 2012, 03:37:51 PM i'm probably going to have to stop buying online as much as possible once these prices take effect, as much as i hate to. i have been getting pretty bad at not looking very hard locally, so maybe this will force me to get back out in the hunt again.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: noiseredux on November 04, 2012, 10:35:46 AM I'm far from a NES collector -- so need help. I saw a complete Duck Tales 2 at a thrift store yesterday but it was under glass so didn't look at the price. Now I checked eBay and apparently CIB copies go for a pretty penny?? I think I'm gonna go back and find out how much it is and maybe nab it to flip.
A) How much should I expect to get for a CIB copy? Ideally I want to avoid eBay and sell it here, Racketboy, NintendoAge, etc. B) Knowing the thrift store it's at, there's a good chance the box will have a price sticker on it. How much will that bring the price down if so? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: noiseredux on November 04, 2012, 12:46:19 PM Nevermind

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on November 06, 2012, 07:40:13 AM Hey, does anybody remember those Nintendo carts? My friend had one when we were young. It was grayish white and had the Nintendo logo on a door that you pulled open or down. You could store your NES, accessories, and games on it, and possibly a small television. Does anyone have any information or know of any websites about these carts? I found one I'm thinking about buying, but it's $60.00. I've been told they made different variations of these carts (different hardware, different organizing racks, etc.). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

There's the link to it. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on November 06, 2012, 04:08:54 PM I think $30-$40 is the norm for them. But its in great shape and/or something you'd really like for your gameroom $60 isnt out of the question. Shipping would hurt buying one online so picking one up for a bit more than normal locally wouldn't be too bad.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on November 06, 2012, 06:07:33 PM I'm seriously considering getting it. I never see one in the wild and $61 shipped doesn't sound bad. Did you check out the link crabby? It's not the same as the one in the picture above my post. Also I was wondering the value/rarity of pro sports hockey on NES. I saw one in a lot of games that's currently at $24. A few places online have it priced kind of high, so I was just curious.

I've got $150 left to pay on the system, and $30 on Black Ops II, still have to shell out $60 for NSMBU.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on November 11, 2012, 12:47:14 AM Just make sure you tie a little flag to it if it hangs off the back of your car. I know thats the law here in MA.
Also if you have the ability to get the cab you should do so. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on November 11, 2012, 07:48:59 AM I used my S10 Xtreme (yes it was a truck made in the 90s) to pick up my OutRun Cab. It wasn't too bad, just the lifting and getting it in my house was the hard part. I have terrible timing, I'm about to have to shell out some $$$ for a Wii U and some games. I guess I should be happy that I was able to preorder one from Wally World.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: RetroRage on November 11, 2012, 11:24:24 AM That's is a stellar deal. Almost too good to be true......

I've got $150 left to pay on the system, and $30 on Black Ops II, still have to shell out $60 for NSMBU. I have one of these carts, though a bit different than the ones already posted. And just so you know, they're not really anything worth writing home about. They're made of cheap particle board and I don't think they were even licensed products. They're worth picking up if you can find a cheap one locally, but not worth over $20 IMO. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on November 11, 2012, 12:38:36 PM Yeah, my friend had one when I was a kid. It was cheap particle board, or at least his was. I always thought they were licensed, or at least the ones that said Nintendo were. I may be wrong though.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on November 22, 2012, 08:40:11 AM Hey guys, I had a question about a trade. I have Jetsons: Cogswells Caper (cart only) for NES, Someone wants to trade me a very good CIB copy of it for my Demons Crest CIB, Super Gameboy CIB, and either $80 or my cart only copy of Jetsons. What do you guys think? I only paid $2.00 for DemonsCrest, $2.00 for Super Gameboy, and $50 for my cart only Jetsons.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on November 22, 2012, 09:06:27 AM So just to be clear you would be getting:
Johnny - Jetsons Cogwell's Caper CIB for Mr.X - Demon's Crest CIB + Super Gameboy CIB + $80 or Jetson's Cart Monitarily the extra $80 is a bit much in favor of Mr.X, BUT Jetson's is an extremely hard title to get CIB. If you are interested in going the CIB route for your NES stuff it would be a great chance to pick it up. You can replace your CIB Demon's Crest MUCH easier than finding another CIB Jetsons even though they are similar in price. Super GB's even CIB are quite easy to come by so that shouldn't factor much into the equation. It really depends on your collecting goals and/or what kind of games you'll enjoy more in your home. Unfortunately I don't think there is a clear cut yes or no for that trade. Just depends on how much you want that Jetson's CIB (and what kind of condition its in). Its a very nice item to have, but so is a CIB Demon's Crest you I assumed you found locally for $2 and your Jetson's Cart. Let us know what you decide! Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on November 22, 2012, 09:25:00 AM Yeah, I got a steal on the Demons Crest, I've been unloading a lot of my SNES stuff to focus more on obtaining a CIB NES set. He originally wanted $180 for the CIB Jetsons. I've checked out completed listings for my CIB Demons Crest and it has been selling in the $90-140 range, so I figured it was kind of close with the Super Gameboy and $80, but I figured if he would take my loose copy of Jetsons it would be closer, since I think it has been selling in the $50-$75 range. I do feel he is getting the better deal, but like you said, it is very hard to find Jetsons CIB and in very good condition.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: techwizard on November 23, 2012, 01:14:32 AM if the jetson's cart sells in the $50-75 range i would say the closest to a fair deal would be demon's crest CIB and jetson's cart only, and leave out the super gameboy. if he wants $180 for a straight sale then throwing in the super gameboy would be pushing it a little beyond the original price, even if it's not worth much.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on November 23, 2012, 08:24:12 PM Okay thanks guys. I told him I couldn't do the $80 and I wanted to know if he would trade me just the box and manual for Jetsons (I already have the cart) He said he would trade just the box and manual for my Demons Crest, Super Gameboy and Ocarina of Time (just cart and box) and $50. So if he wanted to do this trade, isn't he practically just saying his jetsons cart is valued at $30? All that changed from the original trade was I added Ocarina of Time and he is taking away the cart of Jetsons and dropping $30. Sorry if this is a little confusing. By the way, what would you guys value a nice box and manual for The Jetsons at?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on November 23, 2012, 09:24:54 PM Sounds like he is valueing his Jetsons a bit high. But like I mentioned before, its quite hard to come by so its not out of the question. Both trades sound about the same to me. Zelda OoT is super common so I wouldnt worry much about replacing that one or the Super Gameboy if you decide to trade them and want them back eventually.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on November 24, 2012, 11:11:32 AM Yeah, that is probably what I will do, on the other hand a guy that has a CIB Wacky Races is looking for a CIB Demons Crest, but he wants $280 for Wacky Races.....hmmmmmm. Thanks again Crabmaster.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on November 24, 2012, 06:15:00 PM Yeah, that is probably what I will do, on the other hand a guy that has a CIB Wacky Races is looking for a CIB Demons Crest, but he wants $280 for Wacky Races.....hmmmmmm. Thanks again Crabmaster. Wacky Races has one of the hardest to find licensed manuals for the system. Its typically in the last 10 that CIB fullset collectors need. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on November 27, 2012, 03:56:16 PM Hey, got another question. I recently acquired a gold N64 controller, anyone have a value on it? More than anything, I would like some info on it. I remember 1000 gold controllers were given out as a prize for Nintendo Power's Mario Kart 64 contest. I also seem to remember some gold N64 consoles being sold I think. Were there any gold N64 controllers sold individually? Any info would be appreciated and more than likely I am going to try and trade it, regardless of its value.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on November 27, 2012, 08:59:06 PM AFAIK it was only sold in console bundles through toys r us.
As for value dunno. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: SirPsycho on November 27, 2012, 09:15:40 PM The Nintendo Power gold controllers are all labeled. If its not labeled its from the gold N64 TRU exclusive bundle. The Nintendo Power controllers are worth a decent penny, but the TRU ones are worth maybe a couple bucks more than all the other controllers on a good day.

[img width=350 height=263]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v650/finngamer/IMG_0280.jpg[/img] and in 2 differently styled cardboard boxes in japan, also seen in the pic. here's the US console bundle, it had 2 gold controllers: [img width=350 height=193]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v650/finngamer/Gold-1.jpg[/img] and the japan version that only came with 1: [img width=350 height=296]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v650/finngamer/gold.jpg[/img] there was also a special limited controller from Nintendo Power for their 100th issue shown here: [img width=350 height=263]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v650/finngamer/IMG_0278.jpg[/img] it had a Nintendo Power logo at the top shown in detail here: [img width=350 height=313]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v650/finngamer/IMG_0335.jpg[/img] and the last one i know of, there was one with vague origins that has the N64 logo in gold on it: [img width=350 height=263]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v650/finngamer/IMG_1122.jpg[/img] all the pics are from this site which has tons of info on various N64 games and hardware: http://finngamer.webs.com/nintendo64info.htm Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on November 28, 2012, 04:45:22 AM Awesome! Thanks, everyone. I knew I remembered seeing some in blister packs at Toys R Us.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: blcklblskt on November 28, 2012, 09:55:24 AM I see techwizard uses finngamer's website as much as I do. :)
To add to Techwizard's comprehensive post, there were also two more Toys R Us bundles in the US that sold the gold controller. One bundle contained the gold console with one gold controller, and the other was a Grey console that included a Gold controller. The Nintendo Power 100 controller was given out numerous times. There were a few offers and contests in Nintendo Power for it, as well as it being for sale in the Nintendo Power magazine with enough points. It wasn't limited to 1000 units, but it is rare and worth $50+ in good shape. The last picture Techwizard posted is the rarest N64 controller. It was given away as a prize in 1997 to the person who beat Miyamoto in a game of StarFox 64 at E3. It was also apparently handed out to a few employees of NOA because there are around 10-15 known to be floating around. As for the base gold controller's value, I would say $20-25, highly dependent on condition. Ebay sellers tend to think that they're worth a ton of money, but its not the case. I've seen the Millennium 2000 controller (the Silver/Black one) go for well over $300, however. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: techwizard on November 28, 2012, 06:30:37 PM I see techwizard uses finngamer's website as much as I do. :) To add to Techwizard's comprehensive post, there were also two more Toys R Us bundles in the US that sold the gold controller. One bundle contained the gold console with one gold controller, and the other was a Grey console that included a Gold controller. The Nintendo Power 100 controller was given out numerous times. There were a few offers and contests in Nintendo Power for it, as well as it being for sale in the Nintendo Power magazine with enough points. It wasn't limited to 1000 units, but it is rare and worth $50+ in good shape. cool i didn't know there were more bundles, or that the nintendo power one was available for more than just the one event. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: blcklblskt on November 28, 2012, 06:43:25 PM Here is one of the promos for the NP100 controller.

I had all of them added before the database went down, but I haven't had the time to re-submit them.

Is $25 a good price for this? It is CIB.

One of the best fight sticks ever...not sure about the price, but I'd pick it up just because. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: SirPsycho on November 29, 2012, 01:32:38 PM I hid it for now. I don't have enough cash on me and I lost my debit card last week. So for now I'm just waiting.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on November 29, 2012, 01:43:20 PM I woulda bought it.
Any chance you could ask them to hold it say you want to get it as an Xmas gift?

Thanks for posting that! I've had that stick forever, but could never place where it was from. I have never used it, but it is incredibly beefy. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: SirPsycho on November 29, 2012, 03:26:15 PM I woulda bought it. Any chance you could ask them to hold it say you want to get it as an Xmas gift? I'll probably go back for it tomorrow. I've already spent a decent amount of change today. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on December 01, 2012, 04:31:29 AM Hey, I'm not really looking for a price on these games, but someone wants my CIB copy of Demon's Crest and offered me a list of games to choose from. What would you say is the most valuable and or hardest to find?
Loose carts (of significant value/rarity) Balloon Fight Chubby Cherub Clu Clu Land Cowboy Kid Donkey Kong Jr. Math Goal! 2 Godzilla 2 Kickle Cubicle Kickmaster Puzzle Qix Race America Silent Assault Wizardry II: Knight of Diamonds Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on December 01, 2012, 09:33:07 AM Lots of those are uncommon, but possible to find in the wild. The hardest ones to find are probably going to be Cowboy Kid, Godzilla 2, and DK Jr. Math (in that order). Race America, Chubby Cherub, Kickmaster and Qix are a bit harder to find too, but not as bad as the first three. The rest are easier yet, but definitely not as common as the NES staples.
I take it that means you didn't go for the Jetsons trade? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on December 01, 2012, 02:46:03 PM No, unfortunately the guy that has it found a copy of Demons Crest.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on December 01, 2012, 04:00:41 PM Would you say cowboy kid is a $100 game?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on December 01, 2012, 05:08:02 PM No.
But if you want to buy a lot with cowboy kid and chubby cherub and spend a bunch of money here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nintendo-NES-25-Game-Lot-Cowboy-Kid-Tecmo-Soccer-Chubby-Cherub-More-/321028694814?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_2&hash=item4abecd231e Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on December 01, 2012, 06:52:47 PM Nah, I would rather masturbate with sandpaper while watching Flight of the Navigator before I bought that lot. Thanks anyways though!
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: cverz2 on December 01, 2012, 11:39:01 PM I agree with Crab. Cowboy kid, Godzilla 2, and DK Jr. Math.
But if I HAD to pick one game out of that lot. It would be DK Jr. Math. Just b/c people will always want that Black Box Game and I believe it will continue to go up in value over time. Just my humble opinion. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on December 02, 2012, 01:37:18 AM Yeah, I can understand that, a lot of people who get into collecting for NES most always try to get all the black box games, whether they are collecting loose carts or CIB's. Is it the rarest or hardest to find black box game?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on December 02, 2012, 08:48:49 AM Yeah, I can understand that, a lot of people who get into collecting for NES most always try to get all the black box games, whether they are collecting loose carts or CIB's. Is it the rarest or hardest to find black box game? Its one of the hardest Black Box games to find cart only. CIB its price/rarity is crazy though. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on December 02, 2012, 07:23:56 PM I am gonna see if he will trade me Cowboy Kid and DK Jr Math for my CIB Demons Crest. I think the trade would favor me more, but he really wants Demons Crest. Also he is from Canada Crabby, he saidthey are the US versions, I didn't notice any Mattel logos or two seals of quality, is there any other way to make certain they are not Canadian releases?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on December 02, 2012, 09:17:49 PM Hey, back again. This time with a craigslist ad. Not very familiar with Saturn stuff, but is this lot worth $75? It says they have Panzer Dragoon too, is that one of the more expensive titles?
The classic Sega Saturn System. This system set includes the original Sega Rally game & 11 additional Games also has 100% complete with all Sega Saturn components: 1 Original Sega Saturn Console 1 Original Sega Saturn Power Adapter 1 Original Sega Saturn TV Hook Up 4 Sega Saturn Controllers In Addition The Arcade Joystick and the Action Gun Games included are Panzer Dragon, Daytona USA, Street Fighter the movie game, Wing Arms, Skeleton Warriors, Robotica, Dark Legend, Cyber Speedway, Ressurection, AMOK, and TNN Motorsports Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: InvadErGII on December 02, 2012, 10:33:53 PM Panzer Dragoon Saga is the REALLY pricey one. The original isn't worth too much but it's an excellent game.
That lot looks like a pretty great deal to me. I'd jump on it. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on December 02, 2012, 11:00:59 PM Thanks. I always get Panzer Dragoon and Saga mixed up.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on December 02, 2012, 11:19:19 PM I think skeleton warriors is harder to come by too.
I'm not overly familiar with the saturn rarities/worths but that one stuck out for me. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on December 03, 2012, 04:34:51 PM I am gonna see if he will trade me Cowboy Kid and DK Jr Math for my CIB Demons Crest. I think the trade would favor me more, but he really wants Demons Crest. Also he is from Canada Crabby, he saidthey are the US versions, I didn't notice any Mattel logos or two seals of quality, is there any other way to make certain they are not Canadian releases? Other than what you've already checked some Canadian released games part numbers end in -CAN instead of -USA, and when it does I think its only the cart that has the -CAN and the box/manual typically still have the -USA part number. Most of the time its the same release between both regions though. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Techie413 on December 06, 2012, 10:49:11 PM Maybe someone will be familiar with this oddity. My buddy bought a bunch of GameCube stuff from a guy, and one of the cables is a GC to VGA. It looks like a possible Japanese D Terminal cable, but the PC connector end is different than any I've seen. He'd like me to list it on eBay for him, but I'm not quite sure what I'm looking at. I plan to test it shortly. Thanks guys.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: engel762 on December 07, 2012, 09:56:33 AM Price check on a Sega Saturn console, if anyone would be so kind. There's two locally that I know of. 39.99 for one with all the hookups, no games. and 59.99 for one with the hookups and two fairly common sports games. Not sure if I should jump at one of them or not...
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: InvadErGII on December 07, 2012, 10:30:40 AM Would you play the sports games? An extra $20 for those seems weird. $39.99 is a pretty good deal on a Saturn, though you're committing yourself to a bigger investment when it comes to the games you eventually get for it. It's a pricey one to collect for.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: engel762 on December 07, 2012, 10:41:09 AM I'm not a big sports game fan, I was just on the fence about the difference between two games included or not. Guess I'll just go for the system only and pick up games I know I'll enjoy as I come across them.

Take a look and find out which model Sega Saturn you're looking for, should you ever choose to mod it down the line. Also, if one of the sports games is 3D Baseball, it may be worth picking up, just because it's a rare sports title (not expensive).

Check out that ad, a Mario Bros Arcade for $350. I am not real familiar with arcades, I was just wondering if it's a good deal. The same seller also has a Popeye arcade for $375 Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: techwizard on December 09, 2012, 09:29:00 PM i wasn't aware that was ever actually available in arcade cab form...i thought the arcade game was just the original Mario Bros. which became the mini game in SMB 3

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on December 10, 2012, 08:21:53 AM Yeah, I thought it was a pretty fair price. Most of the time I see these around $700-$1000. I also didn't think they made a Super Mario Bros. arcade. Maybe it was converted. I know the Playchoice 10 had a SMB. I couldn't see the pics real clear, but I have never seen that marquee for the SMB arcade either.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on December 10, 2012, 01:06:08 PM I would jump on Mario if you have the money.
I believe several years ago a member who has since dissapeared payed 300-350 for Popeye. But if you are ever in a pinch and need cash or run out of space which do you think you will be able to get more for if you have to sell? Mario that everyone everywhere wants? Or popeye? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on December 10, 2012, 01:50:38 PM What is a Popeye? Just kidding, yeah I could see selling the Super Mario Bros. before Popeye.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: cverz2 on December 11, 2012, 06:03:49 PM I remember playing the Super Mario Bros. Arcade in the Walmart lobby when I was a kid. Spent alot of time and money on that arcade. LOL
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: jansolee66 on December 13, 2012, 09:15:44 PM Another post inspired me to ask about this. I've been looking at a CIB Leisure Vision (the Canadian version on the Emerson Arcadia). It appears to be in reasonably good shape. It also comes with 5 CIB games of mixed condition. Those games are "Baseball", "R2D Tank", "Jump Bug", "Hobo", "Robot Killer". The guy has had a $100 price tag on it for quite some time, but I know I don't want to pay that. I'm curious to know where you guys would be willing to go on this system.
I will say that the Emerson Arcadia is on my list of consoles to target (I don't mind getting the Canadian Clone). Also, are those not some of the coolest game names ever? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on December 13, 2012, 09:27:37 PM Interesting carts. Jump Bug is apparently exclusive to the Arcadia, and Robot Killer has an interesting history as well, according to Digit Press:
Quote Description: 4k cart. 1982. One player game. Uses left side controller. Long cartridge. Unauthorized clone of the arcade game "Berzerk". When copyright problems arose, the game "Escape" became the legalized version of this game. Not released in this form in the United States. The two games may look alike at first glance, based on screenshots, but a closer look will reveal differences. Byte-for-byte, they are definitely not alike. Label art says game is by "(c) UA LTD. 1982, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED."

Back with another question. I found a retro game store about an hour away. They have lots of retro games, but all the NES games are cart only. He had these games priced between $5 and $9. Are there any here that are worth picking up for the price?
Sqoon Mickeys Safari in Letter Land D&D Heroes of the Lance Silent Assault and a few other Color Dreams games. There were more but I can't remember all of them. I did pick up Alien 3, Fisher Price Firehouse Rescue, and Eliminator Boat Duel for $6 a piece. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on December 21, 2012, 01:08:01 PM Sqoon and Silent Assault, yes.

I don't think I have ever seen it before, it must be a pal game or repro.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on December 21, 2012, 01:26:25 PM The same store did have a few hard to find games too, but he usually asks too much for them. He had Color a Dinosaur for $50

I don't think it really matters if they are legit are not. alright cool, i'm thinking i'll go for it. i asked about it on nintendo age too and they all said the same thing, a couple people saying they payed more than that for theirs, and that most of the time the box is missing.

There are 3 decent games in there worth $10+, and the system itself is a decent grab for $40. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: SirPsycho on December 30, 2012, 10:35:59 PM Earthworm Jim 3D is Yellow.
Black looks like Batman Beyond. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on December 30, 2012, 10:37:10 PM Earthworm Jim 3D is Yellow. Black looks like Batman Beyond. Damn - beat me to it while I was typing. Earthworm Jim 3D is one of the rarer N64 titles. I've yet to play Batman Beyond, but it's on my want list just for the sheer fact that my wife owns the entire series on Blu-ray. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: SirPsycho on December 30, 2012, 10:38:55 PM Earthworm Jim 3D is rare/uncommon?
Damn, I feel lucky for getting it in the first lot of games I got with my first 64. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on December 30, 2012, 11:13:50 PM There's a few ads from the same guy I think each one is different. There's one for Genesis, Sega CD, 32X, and a few others. If anyone is looking for anything from those systems, I can post the links to the ads if you want me to.

Yeah, it definitely skews towards the upper range of uncommon. I've seen only one in the wild.

Anything Sega, though I won't bother with anything that's not CIB. I'm missing a lot of commons for my Sega systems. Batman Beyond Seasons are on DVD, Return of the Joker is on Blu-Ray. My bad. Also, only Earthworm Jim 3D I've seen was in immaculate condition, but the person saw I was interested in it and I had my (then) guide out to check if I owned it. He took all of the ones I was interested in off the shelf and said they weren't for sale, and subsequently sold them to another vendor. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on December 31, 2012, 05:22:55 PM Man, Shadow that guy sounds like a total a-hole, I will check the ads again, I think most were CIB.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Beardcore84 on January 17, 2013, 07:42:01 PM Thank you. Got another one. Someone wants to buy a few TurboGraphx manuals from me. I need to know what they are worth.
Bonk 3 Bomberman 93 Time Cruise Tiger Road Just what the manuals are worth. Thanks! Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on January 18, 2013, 03:01:49 AM Bonk 3 is a good one. Depending on the condition you could get anywhere from $75-$100+ for it
Bomberman 93 is probably in the $20-$30 range Time Cruise maybe $10 Tiger Road around $5 I wish I could make an offer on those first two. Good luck with your deal, let us know how it turns out! Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Beardcore84 on January 18, 2013, 01:00:22 PM Honestly Crabby the guy offered me $36 for all of them. Now after talking with you that seems low. I'd rather help out a fellow board member. What about some kind of trade? I don't need cash for them.

That is a really sought after piece though and unless its really trashed its a pretty lopsided deal on your end.

You do realize that manuals typically sell for 50% of the games price in most cases (that generally applies across all systems with some exceptions). Your own link fits my price range pretty well. Bonk 3 Hu Card alone has sold for anywhere from $80-$170. Because it was one of the games that came packages without a jewel case the manual tends to go for a bit more in comparison to games that do (one of those exceptions I mentioned above). How is my range of $75-$100+ off? Your own links show my prices to be pretty darn close so I'm really unsure as to how you are coming up with your prices.

Once again, for clarity, from VGPC's and ebay's completed listings: Bomberman 93 with manual: $59.99 $60.00 $50.00 $45.00 $50.99 $47.00 $50.00 avg: $51.86 Bomberman 93 without manual: $28.38 $44.00 $42.00 $35.00 $54.00 avg: $40.68 The average difference between completed listings WITH manual and WITHOUT manual is $11. You can go through, like I did, and click EACH INDIVIDUAL LINK on VGPC and see which had manuals and which didn't. So, no, I don't think that the manual is worth $20-30. I think its worth $11, with some variation. People are paying about $11 more ON AVERAGE to get it with the manual. Bonk 3 Hu card alone has sold from $150 to $170 in the past 4 months. It has sold, with manual, from $181 to $210. It experienced an absurd price jump past August, which is why it doesn't make sense to go back, otherwise the range gets silly. There are ones that have sold WITH manual for less than WITHOUT manual has sold for recently (One sold WITH MANUAL in June for $127, far less than the $170 WITHOUT manual that sold). I'm not going to suggest the manual is worth negative money, lol. The MAX range there is $60, the minimum range is $11. That is nowhere near $75-100+, they don't even overlap. The manuals were kept far more often with Turbografx games than NES or SNES, because the cases held them. While yes, the later TTI games did not come with cases, a lot of the manuals were saved, because people would repurpose other turbografx cases, to make matching cases for all of their games. So, the turbografx is more like the PSX, PS2, Genesis, than the Atari, NES, SNES, etc, in regards to manuals. EDIT: You'll also note, that in VGPC's Bomberman 93 history, there are MORE copies with the manual, than without. That should tell you that the manual isn't as rare as an SNES manual. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: wildbil52 on February 09, 2013, 01:08:39 AM Bonk 3 is a good one. Depending on the condition you could get anywhere from $75-$100+ for it Bomberman 93 is probably in the $20-$30 range Time Cruise maybe $10 Tiger Road around $5 I wish I could make an offer on those first two. Good luck with your deal, let us know how it turns out! No offense meant Crabmaster, but your prices are a little out to lunch. Time cruise - $9.95, 30 day listing, has sat un-purchased. After Ebay fees and shipping, he'd be lower than $10 anyway. I was planning to possibly buy it, but $10 seemed high. http://www.ebay.com/itm/T...0&hash=item2c6bb8afa5 Bomberman 93, I went ahead and sorted them out: http://videogames.pricech...man-93#completed-auctions From VGPC with manual: $59.99 $60.00 $50.00 $45.00 $50.99 $47.00 $50.00 avg: $51.86 From VGPC without manual: $28.38 $44.00 $42.00 $35.00 avg: $37.25 The difference in averages is almost exactly $15, so my price estimate was low on that, but still not $20 to $30. The estimate on Bonk 3 is silly, FYI. http://videogames.pricech...enture#completed-auctions The difference between a manual-less copy and a with manual copy over the last 4 months has had a high difference of 33, and a low difference of 7. Absolutely none of your links work :/ I think you may be looking at the prices for the import (NTSC-J) versions of the games. Go to Ebay and type in the game name then click on "Sold Listings" NOT "Completed Listings". Make sure you are also looking at the US release and the TG16 release. Its easy to get them mixed up with PCEngine. Or even use vgpc.com if you prefer. Again just make sure you are looking at listings from the right region. I am using VGPC! It was copied text, all of these are taken directly from VGPC, I analyzed the ones that were obviously the NTSC version. The PC Engine versions are obviously not in the $60 range for Bomberman 93, and not in the 200 range for Bonk 3. http://videogames.pricecharting.com/game/turbografx-16/bomberman-93#completed-auctions The $3.26 and $13.99 are clearly the PC Engine ones. I don't know how you could imagine the PC Engine version of 93 would be in the $40-60 range. Its a $10-15 game, max. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEC-PC-Engine-Hu-Card-BOMBERMAN-93-Import-Japan-/150991563729?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2327cc6bd1 And for Bonk 3. http://videogames.pricecharting.com/game/turbografx-16/bonk-3-bonk%27s-big-adventure#completed-auctions The $59.99 is the one PC engine one. In short, all of my numbers came from US versions only. Clearly, you did not look at VGPC before quoting prices. Edit: I should note, that the 24 Oct Bomberman 93 actually sold for $45. Also, VGPC did not have this recent manual-less BIN, for $54.99 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bomberman-93-Turbo-Grafx-16-HuCard-Only-/200878386825?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item2ec548ee89 Or this Bonk 3 BIN for $210, increasing the range. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bonk-3-Bonks-Big-Adventure-Turbo-Grafx-16-HuCard-Manual-/200888549160?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item2ec5e3ff28 Are you feeling ok? That link you sent for the Bomberman 93' says right in the title the words: "PC-Engine", "Import" and "Japan". We are discussing the NTSC-U TG16 price ranges are we not? You also have a link to a HU Card only that sold for $55, but you have trouble believing someone would pay $20-$30 for the manual? You do realize that manuals typically sell for 50% of the games price in most cases (that generally applies across all systems with some exceptions). Your own link fits my price range pretty well. Bonk 3 Hu Card alone has sold for anywhere from $80-$170. Because it was one of the games that came packages without a jewel case the manual tends to go for a bit more in comparison to games that do (one of those exceptions I mentioned above). How is my range of $75-$100+ off? Your own links show my prices to be pretty darn close so I'm really unsure as to how you are coming up with your prices. I feel like I'm missing something or that we are talking about completely different things. You know what I haven't had in a while? Big League Chew.

EDIT: You'll also note, that in VGPC's Bomberman 93 history, there are MORE copies with the manual, than without. That should tell you that the manual isn't as rare as an SNES manual. Ok, there is your problem. Buying a Game AND Manual is not the same as buying just the Manual. Seeing what manuals have sold for by themselves is going to give you an idea of what the manual is worth. Not by comparing listings that have sold with and without the manual. It definitely makes a difference. TG16 stuff is obscure enough on its own. When you start talking about uncommon manuals for an uncommon system its not comparable to stuff like SNES or PS2. If 30% of a SNES game listed have their manuals you could have 30-40 manuals listed. If you've got 50% of the listings for a game like Bonk 3 you'll have something more like 2-5 manuals listed. Its relative to the system/game being sold. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on February 09, 2013, 08:07:59 AM Video games are like cars.

Gotcha. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on February 11, 2013, 03:46:57 PM It was one example out of the hundreds of thousands of games for sale world wide.
The prices ranging on Bonk 3 from 180-400$s for purchased and paid for copies makes so much more sense you are saying? http://www.ebay.com/csc/Video-Games-Consoles-/1249/i.html?_dcat=139973&Platform=TurboGrafx%252D16&_sac=1&_from=R40&_nkw=bonk&LH_PrefLoc=2&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&rt=nc Oh here is another one that make perfect sense Earthbound CIB for 450 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Earthbound-Super-Nintendo-SNES-RPG-Complete-in-Box-with-Stickers-/251218139396?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item3a7dc49904 Earthbound CIB for over 1 grand http://www.ebay.com/itm/EARTHBOUND-STILL-IN-BOX-WITH-MANUAL-STICKERS-INSERTS-COMPLETE-PERFECT-/170969546148?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item27ce943da4 Shit is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. Pikmin 2 Somone BINed it for 60$s CIB http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pikmin-2-Nintendo-GameCube-2004-COMPLETE-/290842462125?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item43b78fc7ad Pikmin 1 and 2 CIb went for 61 at auction http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pikmin-AND-Pikmin-2-Nintendo-Gamecube-Wii-VGC-/150956097256?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item2325af3ee8 Again cherry picking results here there were some copies that sold for even more and MANY copies that sold for much less. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: DarkKobold on February 11, 2013, 05:17:35 PM Also note, I didn't "cherry pick," for Bomberman 93, I took a mathematical average across all available data, and used that to determine the approximate price of the loose manual. For Bonk 3, I provided ranges. You are the one who cherry picked, if anything. I just used the numbers YOU provided.
Crabmaster went on VGPC, knowing jack about TG16 collecting, halved the value of the games, and assumed those were the manual prices. He gave beardcore the impression they were worth gold, so Beardcore ignored my messages, thinking I was lowballing. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on February 11, 2013, 05:31:29 PM Ahhh so that is the problem.
Well clearly you were the person who felt they were not worth what someone else thought they were. Eventually he will either change his mind and lower the price or find someone who will pay his price. Keep hunting i'm sure that 15$ manual will show up. If the price you offered was based on a statistical average just keep holding out there is always stuff available for below average cost right? Otherwise average prices wouldn't be needed right? EDIT Side note based on your assumptions why don't you just buy a CIB copy of the game and use your incomplete copy to defer the costs? It only missing the manual shouldn't hurt your price. At least not based on the super random prices on eBay. EDIT 2 http://videogames.pricecharting.com/game/nes/super-mario-bros-and-duck-hunt I know some people would love to unload dozens of copies of this game. Average price is 4.87 bucks you interested? I bet they would cut you a deal and sell them for 4.50. Hell maybe an even 4$! Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: DarkKobold on February 11, 2013, 09:04:08 PM EDIT Side note based on your assumptions why don't you just buy a CIB copy of the game and use your incomplete copy to defer the costs? It only missing the manual shouldn't hurt your price. At least not based on the super random prices on eBay. Actually, its funny you mention that. I've been kicking myself for passing on the $50 Bomberman 93, I guess I was holding out for BC to get back to me. I could have resold it for $55 now, and basically covered my fees and costs, and gotten the manual for free. Oh well, it will show up again, and I'll do that. I actually did exactly that to get my Neutopia II manual. I think my out of pocket was around $5 to cover fees and shipping.

But it does look pretty damn mint. If it is cosmetically mint and fully functional i don't think 600 would be a terrible price even. That being said i wouldn't drop 600$ on it. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on February 15, 2013, 09:28:14 PM Thanks guys. I threw $250 at him so I'm not to hopeful, but I'll see what he says.

Locally here, Mega Man 3 and Contra are pretty much a guaranteed $40+. Zelda 2 and Ducktales would net you another $20 minimum. There are actually a lot of keepers in there. Pretty much all of the games I've named off are good. Batman is very hard, but fun. Zanac is a very good 8-bit vertical shooter (not rare by any stretch of the imagination but really fun). Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: KidA on February 23, 2013, 05:25:30 PM Thanks Shadow, so it seems really worth it considering he's asking $4 for every game if I buy them all.
Jansole, I made a $60 offer since hes asking for around $75, somewhat of a drive to his area as well. I only collect CIB, so these will be trade barter. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on February 23, 2013, 05:43:29 PM They're definitely good trade bait.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on February 24, 2013, 03:51:26 PM Both games generally go for less when they are in a bidding environment on eBay. But it seems like the both generally end up being listyed with a 30+$ starting price or with high BINs
If it is something you are dying to have grab them If not grab a lot with one of them in it. Or wait until you can get a lucky BIN. GigaWing2 i think had a >10$ bin recently. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on February 24, 2013, 05:23:23 PM Giga Wing is expensive - I don't remember Mars Matrix being expensive, but it looks like that's gone up in price.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on April 26, 2013, 02:34:08 PM Onwards to amazon they go lol.

Ended up with a couple genesis II systems over the past few months was planning on selling them for $25 or so with 1 controller and game(ended up with multiple "Not for resale" sonic carts and a spare mortal kombat) so your quotes aren't to far from what I was estimating. Still a decent profit margin for the prices I got them at :). Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Fragems on April 26, 2013, 03:00:41 PM Also on the fence about selling my find of the day. I picked up a copy of Warship Gunner II CIB for the PS2 today for a really good price at my local pawnshop. Didn't realize it was rare until I did a quick search on amazon and ebay :P. Any ideas on what a CIB version goes for realistically? Only found disc only copies on ebay and amazon prices seemed pretty inflated.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Fragems on May 06, 2013, 07:58:04 AM thinking about selling a PS2 bundle and figured I would ask you all what you think a fair price would be.
Bundle would be a PS2 Fatty, 2 Dual shock 2 Controllers(1 Standard Black and 1 transparent Blue), a Sony 8MB memory card, a network adapter, and a couple games(RE4, FFX, and FFX-2). Got the system for a really good deal and had a few extra games lying around. If you didn't have a PS2 already what would you be willing to go up to for something like that. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: h1ghw1nd on May 06, 2013, 09:29:07 AM Holy shit Crabby i saw that manual go up for 800, didn't think anyone would even pay that.
I saw the game up for 1500. Thought it was CIB. Guess you have to pony up over 2 G's for that bad boy!

These boxes and manual tend to often be in pretty rough shape. So if that's not a big concern for you you'll be able to save a few hundred bucks on a CIB most likely.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: A8scooter on May 18, 2013, 11:57:12 PM id do it for 50.00 if its boxed complete with controller and it works yes. would be a bonus if its already maxed out with 3 16k rams and a 10k rom . but not needed to be a good deal.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crazy_Opossum on May 20, 2013, 07:27:11 PM okay a Virtual Boy (missing the plastic cover on the end) all working... and a sealed version of virtual league baseball for $50... I'm not to sure just wanted to ask about it
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Duke.Togo on May 20, 2013, 07:39:35 PM I'm assuming by plastic cover you mean the foam eye shield? If it comes with the controller, stand, sealed game , and it works, I'd say that is a good deal.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: blcklblskt on May 20, 2013, 07:59:12 PM Virtual League Baseball is worth about $6-10 sealed. If it came with the stand, controller, and the screens definitely work, I'd say it's worth about $40-50. The stands are always broken (and backwards), so that is probably worth as much as the Virtual Boy unit itself.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on May 23, 2013, 06:11:28 PM Hey guys, found this craigslist ad recently. It is an NES CIB with some games and the miracle piano set up and keyboard. I'm not sure what the value of the piano and set up is, anyone have an idea? Also, they listed the games and one is bubble bobble, from the pic I can't tell if it is bubble bobble 1 or 2, can anyone help me out there? Also another ad popped up that had bubble bobble 2 with the manual for $200 I believe the cart sells for that much but what about the manual?

Sounds like the Miracle Piano has everything needed to make it functional. He is asking a bit high, but said his price is negotiable. Even at a bit of a high price like that I'd think about taking it if its local just so you don't have to deal with shipping the thing. Definitely not a pick up if you're looking to resell though. As for Bubble Bobble 2 with the manual for $200. That's a no-brainer pick up if both the game and manual are in decent shape. You could easily get $80+ for the manual. And the game is definitely worth the price tag alone. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on May 23, 2013, 06:44:17 PM Okay thanks for the advice Crabby

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on June 06, 2013, 03:30:35 PM It'll fluctuate $100-$300 depending on if the system bios is NTSC-J or NTSC-U and the completeness and condition of the system. A mint CIB NTSC-U is gonna cost you likely around $500 and possibly more while a loose NTSC-J you can probably grab for around $100-$150.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on June 08, 2013, 09:17:00 PM Here is a local ad for a Japanese Saturn with games and CIB Famicom, maybe some of you import guys can help me out. Is it a decent price?

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on June 08, 2013, 10:55:54 PM If the Saturn works and games are CIB/working i would jump all over that.
Whoever got it in the US first probably spent more than that on shipping the system alone lol Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on June 08, 2013, 11:01:56 PM Thanks for the info duke and Izret, I might have to give this person a call/email.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: techwizard on June 28, 2013, 04:17:15 AM thinking about getting an Atari 2600, i was watching some videos of it and it's one of the few systems i played quite a bit as a kid that i have yet to buy again. i'm not sure but i think i remember seeing a boxed one at a local game store, does anyone have an idea what price i should be looking for on a CIB atari 2600?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Fragems on July 02, 2013, 09:17:46 PM Sounds like a question for singlebanna lol :P. vgpc says 70 but the listings they are using aren't very good :P.
If it were in my area I would say $50-80 for a boxed Atari 2600 would about be the going price but I hardly ever see them in boxes and when they are the boxes are beat to hell :P. Recently they have been trying to push the loose systems for $70+ usually with a few extra games on Craigslist. I got lucky and picked up two boxes with 3 systems(Vader, woody, and jr.), about 30-40 games, a Atari plug-n-play, and a few controllers for $100. Of course there wasn't a functional power brick amongst them :P luckily the $10 off brand replacement i got on amazon seems to work okay and doesn't feel to cheaply made. P.S. I still have a ton of duplicate carts so give me a buzz if you ever pick one up.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Fragems on July 07, 2013, 09:26:29 AM lol I wish it was for the Atari. Would be cool if the 2600 had some light gun games.
Also kicking myself for not buying an Odyssey the guy had a few weeks back he had one CIB and he probably sold it for $20-30. Interestingly enough I found the manual while digging through some stuff the other day so that must have gotten left behind. Will probably grab it next time just in case he drags another one in.

I found a guy on Craigslist selling Mike Tysons Punch Out CIB (with the letter from Mike Tyson) for $125. Do you guys think this is reasonable? I have checked some pricing from sold listings on eBay and other sources, but most of the ones I have found don't clarify whether they include the letter or not, and I always hear people on NA looking to buy just the letter to complete some partials. So what do you guys think?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: GamerNick on July 07, 2013, 11:20:45 PM You can get one cheaper on eBay with free shipping

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: jansolee66 on July 08, 2013, 09:59:27 PM I picked up a few newer systems that I'm less familiar with, price-wise, if you guys can help me out. I have an allegedly functioning XBox (original) and PS2. It seems I have all of the wires. They are both PAL region. I live in Canada. Are there enough region specific games on those systems that there is a market for them here? My online searches have yielded mixed results. Even with the Xbox 360, there are only a few PAL exclusive games and they barely warrant a purchase. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on July 08, 2013, 10:09:23 PM Missed the PS2 portion of that - there are many PS2 games there were localized for UK from Japan that are well worth the purchase, and they aren't available here in the US.

About the going price at flea markets for Atari 2600 games is $1-2 a piece, controllers are about $3-5, and systems are all over the place depending on the seller but I would say $30-40 would be an appropriate average price range. If your buying in bulk you can get some awesome deals though. I have had alot of luck recently running into box lots of atari stuff at the fleas. If you want an accurate value for online though I highly recommend going through the games and checking them on vgpc.com . Also worth looking up the games since there are quite a few holy grails in the Atari collection lol. Edit: I would say you got a pretty good deal. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on July 24, 2013, 07:40:42 PM I wanted to see what you guys thought about this lot, it's on a local yard sale group Facebook page. I know the price is kind of steep, and you can easily look up any of the games on VGPC, but I saw Mario Bros. CIB valued at $139 on there, and was wondering if that was correct.

Like always, it depends on what you are comfortable paying but I would value Donkey Kong around $60-80 and Mario Bros at $50-60.
The reason Mario Bros is showing as $139 right now is because of a recently completed ebay auction for a very nice condition 5 screw UNPUNCHED hang tab copy that sold for $139. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Johnny Nintendo on July 24, 2013, 09:17:12 PM That's good to know. She was asking $200 for all of it, so I asked if she would take $50 for Mario Bros, Donkey Kong, Castlevania, and Castlevania II. She said she would, but she just sold the entire lot. I am glad that I didn't buy the entire lot though.

for myself, i saw a CIB (assumed) N64 system with the 2nd Atomic Purple controller for $85 at a local store. it looks considerably cheaper than it would cost me to order off ebay when you factor in shipping, but i'm wondering what anyone else thinks of that price. they also had Pikmin 2 (black label) for $36 + tax, which seems to be only a little above the lower end of ebay there. i'm thinking about going back for them tomorrow.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Zouseap on September 11, 2013, 06:51:17 AM What about a PSX SCPH7000W *JAP* completely new and boxed with one controller?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on September 11, 2013, 10:15:50 AM Steve - one hasn't sold for a while, but it's been seen to sell for up to $200. I'd guess you're looking at probably lower than $150 due to low demand right now.
What about a PSX SCPH7000W *JAP* completely new and boxed with one controller? Looks like there's one available on eBay that hasn't sold for $130: http://www.ebay.com/itm/PlayStation-Console-SCPH-7000-PlayStation1-PlayStation2-SCPH7000-/121160339705?pt=Video_Games_Games&hash=item1c35b810f9 Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Zouseap on September 11, 2013, 07:36:35 PM Kisuragi san. No that one. Im talking about the 10 million model we were talking earlier. The model midnight blue, supossed to be only 100 for territory. *America, Europe and Japan. Total 300 models only. I cannot get a really estimated value. Some people say 50 dollar, other 100$, others 1.000$...
I know the Japanese model is the most unseen...But still dont have a really real price. :-C Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on September 11, 2013, 07:39:54 PM Oh! Sorry.
Not sure about brand new - unfortunately, you're talking about something that has a very limited stock, and therefore the price is mainly driven upon the demand for it at the time. I know a used US one sold for $130 earlier in the year, but I don't know the condition on it. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on September 11, 2013, 08:15:49 PM I believe top dollar on these back in the day was over 1k but i couldn't find any info about them selling recently (didn't look super hard) but i do know the values on them dropped off.
Given the rarity of the item and the fact that fewer and fewer nice ones are going to be available if you pull enough interest you might be able to make several hundred to 1,000 or more for it depending on how bad the collectors fight over it. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Zouseap on September 11, 2013, 10:31:28 PM Izret101 thank you very much. Something like that I was thinking about.
Considering its completely unused and unboxed, and considering also the Japanese ones are even more rare, I thought that was a more real price. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: bearmetal on September 18, 2013, 09:37:22 PM Game Price check:

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: blcklblskt on October 12, 2013, 10:49:39 PM ^With stuff that rare, it's worth whatever someone will pay you. I sold a loose SuperVision with Carrier for somewhere in the $50-70 range years ago, so I'd say they're probably worth more than that.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: JerryGreenwood on November 11, 2013, 12:39:27 PM I saw Beat 'em and Eat 'em for Atari CIB on eBay going for $25 with 23 minutes left and only one bidder.

Any thoughts? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on November 11, 2013, 12:52:01 PM $25 would've been a good deal. :P

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: RetroExplorer on January 09, 2014, 12:39:01 AM Alright guys, I need some expert opinions here.
I have Hatris brand new for the Game Boy. Its in very nice shape with the plastic seal looking pretty mint. There are none in New condition that have recently sold on ebay, none on amazon, and price charting only lists one for $22 but that was back in 2011 and None since then. So, while in loose condition it isn't a normally a rare / desirable game, but based on the rising value of sealed games... and collecting... what kind of value would you guys put on this? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on January 09, 2014, 09:40:16 AM Unfortunately sealed games are quite a different beast that CIB games. I don't know that we have the appropriate expert on rfgen here. I'd ask this question over on Nintendoage as there are several guys who specialize in sealed stuff and would likely have a much better idea. Make sure to have pics ready for them.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: GamerNick on January 09, 2014, 11:57:20 AM Well I am no expert but I do have a taste for New Sealed Games...well the one did go for $22 in 2011 certain games of that genre don't really see a huge rise...if the seal is good condition and no dents in the corners no tears in the plastic I would price it at around $40 to $45.00. Hatris isn't really a sought after or desirable title..but to the right person a sealed copy for GB could go for the prices I talked about.

Do you think it would be worth putting it up for auction rather than a fixed price listing? Maybe since there has been a long gap between listings there could be some buyers waiting. Might check in on Nintendo Age for some extra guidence. Thanks. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: GamerNick on January 10, 2014, 12:30:39 AM Auction wouldn't be a bad idea.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Dergatron9000 on January 11, 2014, 01:27:47 AM Yeah I saw the replacement shells for sale. But the bottom looks pretty legit doesn't it?

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Dergatron9000 on January 14, 2014, 10:13:09 AM Naw I think its a case swap all the buttons are orange to.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: GamerNick on January 14, 2014, 10:37:28 AM I agree I don't like the Naruto stuff...also this may sound weird but it looks like orange sherbert and blah gross haha...a cool color would be like a different shade of blue not made, or a cool color of red not ever made.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Dergatron9000 on January 15, 2014, 01:13:41 PM You dont like orange sherbert!!? That shit is delicious haha. Now I want a neopolitan sherbert coloured nds (purple, green and orange). Yum.

THanks! Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: GamerNick on January 17, 2014, 04:09:17 PM The "Darth Vader" Black console boxed I'd say $50-$60...and depending on the games...if they are 5 pac-mans or 5 et's no way..but some solid fun titles go for it.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: JerryGreenwood on February 10, 2014, 07:18:46 AM Game - Alf (Master System - CIB - good/very good condition)
I've been checking eBay for weeks to get a feel for the price and I haven't even seen it listed. Also, can someone give me an estimate on how rare it is? I've checked multiple sites and I've seen it rated as the 3rd rarest game for the SMS to the 20th rarest game and anything inbetween. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: MaterialHandlerMike on February 10, 2014, 01:13:23 PM puregaming.org, which does a bunch of game collector apps on the Iphone, is kind of a weird app. It uses a 12 as a scale for rarity. The NES one is usually very close to Pricecharting, but all the other apps are all over the place. Right now Pricecharting says Alf is about $35 loose and $55 complete. The PureGaming app on my phone says Alf has 8/12 rarity (again, I know the 12 is weird) and says $57 for the cart and $136 CIB.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on February 10, 2014, 01:24:44 PM Alf, historically, has gone for between $45-$60 CIB in the past 3 years if I remember correctly. I haven't been following prices for Sega stuff closely for about a year, so I don't know if that has changed.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: MaterialHandlerMike on February 10, 2014, 01:51:00 PM Last CIB one sold on Ebay (last month) went for around $50
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: JerryGreenwood on February 10, 2014, 01:55:17 PM Thanks Mike and Shadow! If it's around $50, then I'm getting a decent deal.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: singlebanana on February 19, 2014, 02:16:20 PM A buddy of mine has about 10 "Not For Sale" Sega Master System loose carts. Just wondering if anyone knows the market for these or if they are more valuable than say the regular carts sold in stores. Some are coming up on eBay for around $90 each, but they are not selling and I think the guy has them up at no loss if they don't sell, since noone else has them. Any info is appreciated. Thanks
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on February 19, 2014, 03:57:31 PM I've got an NFR SMS card, and when I asked previously I was essentially told that there's no market for them, so they don't tend to sell for more. If it were for a popular or rare title, however, I'd expect there to be a market for it.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: singlebanana on February 19, 2014, 04:07:09 PM That was kind of my thought. Thanks Shadow.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on February 19, 2014, 05:06:45 PM No problem. For those types of questions, feel free to hit up the folks at SegaAge. You may find more interest in them there as well.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: singlebanana on February 20, 2014, 10:22:02 AM I'm kind of doing this from recall, but they are pretty common. Stuff like Rambo, Fantasy Zone, Rocky, etc. Nothing rare.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on February 20, 2014, 12:03:19 PM Fantasy Zone is pretty cool. Any other important franchises?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: singlebanana on February 20, 2014, 01:12:18 PM Again, I can't recall what he had, but am going to get a list together soon and offer to sell them for him if he wants. I posted on SegaAge to see if I could get some value on these things and got a message from a guy who collects them. If you have interest in them, let me know Crabby and once I get some valuation, I'll let you know. I'll make sure you are treated fairly.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on February 23, 2014, 10:13:29 PM Not my cup of tea but if everything is in working order that seems like a decent price. Especially if there is any boxes/manuals included.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: GamerNick on February 28, 2014, 08:27:39 AM Now ... there is Custer's Revenge and Beat 'em and Eat 'em for the 2600 both have manual and the plastic/vinyl boxes (no cardboard ... for $125... is this good? I agree with Shadow and Banana pretty high without the cardboard. I got mine for $50.00 with just the Vinyls and he Manuals. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: GrayGhost81 on March 20, 2014, 07:05:01 AM Got a trade brewing with a coworker, wanted you guys' thoughts on it.
I'd give up (all CIB): Resident Evil 3 (ps1) Pandora's Tower (wii) F-Zero (SNES) I'd get (loose carts): Secret of Mana (SNES) Breath of Fire (SNES) I think I know ya'll will say go for it, it's just that I don't collect much for snes. However I like to have nice pieces like that in any part of my collection. EDIT: Deal is getting a little sweeter as he just told me he doesn't need my F-Zero cart, just the cardboard and manual etc. Plus I should mention that I have RE3 for gamecube so I stand to lose the PS1 version and also the copy of Pandora's Tower I'd be trading would be an extra so I'd still have my own copy on the shelf. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: singlebanana on March 20, 2014, 07:50:03 AM Yeah, this is a good deal for you. SNES carts are really climbing in value and you are getting two great games here. Plus, you are really beating this guy up when it comes to value. Big win for you on this deal.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: GrayGhost81 on March 20, 2014, 08:08:10 AM Yeah thanks, I'm going to go for it. It really is a no-brainer.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: techwizard on April 03, 2014, 04:25:30 PM hmm ya looking at sold listings it doesn't seem like a steal, but not bad either
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: GrayGhost81 on April 03, 2014, 07:53:28 PM That's one that I gave up on. There's a handful of PS2 games I've been hunting for that are floating out of my price range. Steambot Chronicles is one I really want that is going up rapidly as well.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: GamerNick on May 05, 2014, 08:48:24 AM I'd take it from you but definitely not at that price...it's a book lol I'm thinking more like $15 or $20 ;-) the one that is shown in that ebay is in rough shape even if you look at the pages at the top it has water damage, I believe those are like mold spores.

All games, all but 2 manuals, no boxes $100 shipped Is it worth it? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on June 02, 2014, 09:55:18 PM If it was all CIB i would jump on it.
Fairly certain Pico prices have dropped a ton since i was buying them though. Sonic i think is down to 20-30 last i checked. Muppets was down in the 20$ range too. Alex and Alice was the only other "pricey" one i remember but Jack and Jill may have been also. The library is small enough where i would suggest trying for a CIB. It will take a bit longer and might cost closer to the 150-200 range (if you get dicked on shipping for every game like i did) but should you decide to try and sell down the line it won't be hard to do. Most likely you will NEVER find loose boxes and depending on the missing manuals you might never get them without buying a second copy of the game either. It isn't the most in demand system out there so it probably wouldn't be an easy sell to try and recoup loses on either for replacements. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: OatBob on June 02, 2014, 11:39:24 PM Thanks for the adv.
I'm dumping a lot of money into costuming this summer. Destiny is 99 days out... I'm probably gonna get started as soon as E3 hits. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Piles on July 14, 2014, 05:19:53 AM Hi everyone, Maybe this is not the most appropriate place maybe to ask a question like this but I couldn't really find a better spot for it. But here I go...
Upcoming weeks I will be travelling to the states leaving Amsterdam upcoming Saturday. As a collector, ofcourse, I have set some goals to improve/ extend my collection with some games very specific to the US. The main game I'm going after is Earth Bound. Ill be traveling the west Coast (Vanacouver, Canada to L.A.). So my question is: How much will it cost me to score a cart only copy of the game and where should I look for it. What are the chances of finding the game in a retail store and/or in the wild. I would very much appriciate it if someone could give me a estimate of the (retail) going price and where to look for/ find the game. Many thanks in advance and can't wait to discover your glorious country (and six flags magic mountain XD )! Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on July 14, 2014, 06:26:41 AM It isn't super rare.
You have a .0001 cance of finding it "in the wild" but chances are somewhat good you will be able to find it at a used game shop. Prices will most likely reflect going rates on eBay. EDIT Oh yeah enjoy your trip :) Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on July 14, 2014, 07:07:19 AM You'll probably be able to find it in Vancouver at a few different shops. Its gonna range from $200-$300+ for a loose one in a retail store, add a couple hundred to both ends of that if you want CIB. Good luck and enjoy the roller coasters!
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: nupoile on July 14, 2014, 10:01:08 PM If you stop in Seattle, they have great selection of used game stores. You can get and idea from this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGnS9UfMqJY Are you stopping in Portland? I can list some stores in that area too if you like. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Piles on July 17, 2014, 04:41:10 PM Hey guys, thank you for the great answers. We will be driving past Portland when we leave Seatle to go to San Francisco. It's good to hear that there are probably some available in a retail environment. Hopefully I can get a good deal in one of the stores. 300 bucks is probably a bit to high for me, I'm aiming for a price between 160 and 200 usd.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: calistarwind on July 27, 2014, 11:10:17 AM So I got this item as part of a contest. If your store sold more copies of Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon then the other stores in your region then they sent you a Fire Emblem Crystal. The crystal has a sword etched into it and changes color. Inside the bottom of the base are lights that rotate to change the color. I have not seen any of these pop up and have been trying to figure out the value of my collection for insurance reasons. I have the paper that was sent along with the item about winning and the box is really smooth and silky. Anyone have an idea on this?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on July 27, 2014, 11:26:34 AM Things like that completely depend on the market of the collectors.
Depending on who sees it and who wants it it might for for 500$s or 30$s. Given that i specifically look for Mortal Kombat stuff i have seen it happen with that. Some promotional item will sell for 5$s one week with one bid and then the next one that shows up a few people see it who missed the last one and go into a bidding frenzy and the thing ends up going for 80$s with 20 bids Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: calistarwind on July 27, 2014, 11:31:34 AM So what you are telling me is that I should hype the heck out of it and post it every where? :)
Okay, yeah that makes sense. Thanks for the input as always. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on July 27, 2014, 11:36:46 AM GameSniped, if it's still around, tends to help with those types of things. ;)

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: techwizard on July 29, 2014, 06:33:57 PM i have a lit crystal exactly like that from a mall kiosk that sold local artist's work, i think i might have paid $25 or $30 for it but it was a long time ago. seeing as your's is so unique and something collectors would be interested in, i'm sure it would go for much more than that. but like izret said, it entirely depends on who's buying, you have to get lucky with the right seller...which makes it hard to put an insurance value on it.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Piles on July 31, 2014, 12:37:04 AM A quick update directly form the US (We are still on our trip). I found a copy of earthbound after visiting 6 shops. I think I got a decent retail price for it being 173 usd cart only wich was within my budget. Also picked up some atari games in a thrift store: frogger, centipede and qbert boxed and loose pacman and dk carts. Didnt have a lot of atari (i wasnt born yet when those came out) so I was pretty thrilled finding a few staples. Tnx a lot for the tips you guys gave me (The seatle store video was very helpfull, pink gorilla is amazing). Ill put up a photo of the final scores later in the scores thread when we completed our trip.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Addicted on July 31, 2014, 07:13:12 AM Congrats on finding a copy of Earthbound!

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: A8scooter on November 24, 2014, 11:22:26 PM Phillips N60 Console. Any ideas on value?
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: A8scooter on November 29, 2014, 10:54:16 PM How about an Magnavox Odyssey system Complete in box boarderline New ( Listed as never played and marked as such on the original system shipper box. ) Everything is like new if not New like stated on the box and what they people who are selling it said.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: nupoile on November 30, 2014, 12:37:24 AM I was hoping someone had an answer on the N60 console as it made me curious.
Magnavox Odysseys are odd to place a price on because there seems to be a small number of people (1?) who attempted to corner the market, at least on ebay. It's made auctions for them weird to watch over the last few years. I would guess though, if the box is very new looking, you're looking at a couple hundred at least, $300-500 would be my guess. I only have a guess though and it's only come up for me on the periphery since I watch Odyssey^2 auctions. If it was for the O2 that you were asking, the answer is less than $200 for sure. Maybe $100 with a little luck. The original Odysseys seem to come up for sale in very good condition fairly often but again, many of the auctions seem to be from the same seller, so, that's weird. I've even seen them with their original shipping cartons included. Shadow Kisuragi has chatted with me on this very thing, maybe he'll chime in. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Fokakis79 on December 12, 2014, 07:21:52 PM Cornering the market? No wonder I can't find Odyesseys for good prices anymore
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: gbpxl on December 21, 2014, 12:49:50 PM Joe and Mac 2 SNES NTSC CIB, all inserts, minty
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on December 21, 2014, 01:40:27 PM Yeah - the Odyssey market was cornered a few years back when someone purchased up most of the stock, even at a detrimental cost, so that he could artificially drive up prices. He tends to purchase any Odyssey listings that aren't his as well.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on December 21, 2014, 01:45:11 PM Joe and Mac 2 SNES NTSC CIB, all inserts, minty I see a BIN for $115, but it seems to go for $100-$200 - demand's all over the place for it.

I saw an unopened one (I hate the term "new"- no video games that were made before 2013 are being sold as new today outside of re-issues) go for over $2k. Impossible to know if it was paid for or not but I didn't see a re-listing for it (indicator that it wasn't paid) Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: techwizard on December 25, 2014, 09:20:59 PM new is just a description of condition when talking about collecting, not whether it's modern or retro...it's in the exact same condition it was when you could have picked it off the shelf of EB Games at launch day. sealed is a better term though.
do you know about the filter for "Sold Listings" on ebay? that will give you the true values people are willing to pay. current listings are never a good way to judge market value because a seller can price something at any price they want, but that's not neccesarily what it's worth.

If you have a 70 year old woman make an ad for Stadium Events and puts it as a BIN for $20, and someone buys it at that, it doesn't mean that Stadium Events is worth $20. There's a company that uses a program that scans eBay listings hundreds of times a minute for BINs that are listed far below the going rate, and they automatically buy them from what I understand, so those sold listings shouldn't be taken into account either. generally speaking, I think common minty CIB SNES games are worth about $50, and that number goes up by about 50 bucks for every rarity tier that it increases by. general public awareness of a game has a lot more to do with rarity. stadium events sells for a fortune now because of word of mouth- it's not necessarily the rarest game on the NES but as long as people keep saying it is, it'll keep commanding a high price Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: techwizard on January 18, 2015, 08:37:10 PM local ad for this list of NES games (some CIB) for $800 CAD (about $670 USD). i'm not too interested in it for myself, especially the loose stuff, but thinking about flipping it or at least passing on any savings to people here who have holes to fill in their NES library. i very quickly skimmed price charting and it seems to be only about market value, but he's open to offers so what would you say is a fair price for these 49 games?

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Duke.Togo on January 18, 2015, 09:06:43 PM Nothing rare there in that lot, so it wouldn't be a quick flip if you grabbed it.

I'd walk with that starting price, but you might try to go low and see what happens. that was the first thing i was looking for, any names that stood out as desirable but i didn't see any and was hoping someone else might spot something that i didn't realize was rare. maybe i'll just pass on it, i could see the big name titles (the castlevanias, megamans, zeldas, marios) going instantly but everything else dragging on forever with not much profit. it seems like a really good starter kit if the price were right, but not a good bundle for resale. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: cverz2 on January 19, 2015, 12:06:38 AM Comes out to almost 14 per game. Definitely not worth the original asking price.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: gbpxl on January 19, 2015, 12:49:29 AM He likely wouldn't even be left with $400 if he sold them all on eBay individually, after shipping expenses and fees. I could see paying $250-300 for that, just based on the fact that you are doing him a favor by not having to d*ck around with eBay or getting ripped off at a pawn shop/game store. It's so easy to sell things on Craigslist that it's an insult to price anything at eBay/game store value on there.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: techwizard on January 23, 2015, 06:27:49 PM thinking about selling off a couple steelbooks that i picked up but don't really care about. one of them is for New Super Mario Bros. U, and i can only find 3 BINs on ebay, one sold for $7.40 (CAD) the other 2 were around $50 (CAD). does that sound about right? if it does i'll probably put mine up for $45 cad, maybe $35 or $40 USD.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on January 23, 2015, 07:57:29 PM I'd start just south of the high end. (45$)
BIN for 7 days. If someone undercuts you then you can undercut them since your not looking to make a killing ;) If it doesn't sell and there is no competition and you are in no hurry to sell just let it relist until gone and price cut to match or beat the competition if/when they arise. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: SirPsycho on January 23, 2015, 08:25:33 PM Put it up with a Best Offer option. You can do online haggling with it.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Izret101 on January 23, 2015, 08:41:57 PM Meh i can't be bothered with haggling as a seller lol
If you offer a Best Price no one is going to BIN. If you want it to sell you lead with your best price. :) Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: zcrich01 on February 24, 2015, 08:43:10 PM I picked up a 5 screw oval label factory mismatch metal gear cart. I looked on ebay to see what the relative value of this may be...but I don't see a single 5 screw copy there. Obviously, this would only be of any interest to hardcore variant collectors...but my question is does anyone have a reasonable estimate for the value? I only realized I had this bc I was looking through the oddball rare cart thread on NA and there were 4 other confirmed copies of this cart

Non gaming question http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00OHZVN5U/amazon0b53-20/ Is that a good price? How many charges would it hold before needing to recharge itself?

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: techwizard on March 30, 2015, 11:18:23 PM alright finally have some funds to hunt down a famicom for the disk system i picked up a while back, but i don't know what a good price is on it. ebay has some that don't seem too badly priced, but then the majority of them are console only, no cables which seems stupid. this was the only one i could find that came with everything and said it all works too:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Famicom-Console-set-Conosole-PSU-extra-pad-5-games-NINTENDO-Work-fine-NES-A6-/161653776681?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item25a350e129 is that a reasonable price for the system, cables, and 5 games in that condition? the free shipping is a big deal too because most of the ones i looked at were $20+ for shipping to canada.

the title and price of this makes me think it's a reproduction box, but i really can't tell. the nintendo seal on the front looks a little blurry but it's hard to tell if that's the photo or the printing. anyway to know if this is real or fake? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on April 23, 2015, 07:23:32 PM With the price and shape of that box it HAS to be a repro. I'd be a leary buyer.

EDIT - It actually says handmade in the title ;) Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on April 23, 2015, 07:38:39 PM Anyone know the value of this one. I'm having trouble finding one for sale or that sold recently.

I was wondering if anybody can knows if this particular version of this cart is some how more collectible than any other version of it. I've been google image searching (most of matches seem to be for Junior) and I haven't found even one instance of this weird printed label with the TO: line. I should probably mention the top label of the cart says Cartridge Left. So I assume it is made for the Atari 400/800 "8-bit line" of Atari PCs (I actually don't know anything about those, just went through the Wikipedia article(s)).

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: MetalFRO on July 22, 2015, 11:39:46 AM I'm wondering about Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters on Game Boy. I own a loose cart already, but the game store nearest me has a CIB copy in really good shape. Problem is, it's $90. Price Charting currently has the game listed (http://videogames.pricecharting.com/game/gameboy/kid-icarus-of-myths-and-monsters?q=kid+icarus+of+myths+and+monsters) as $95 for a complete copy, but I can't, in good conscience, spend that kind of cash on a single Game Boy game, complete or otherwise. I realize that's "market value" currently, but 3 times original retail value? Anyone have any thoughts on this? The owner of the chain said he'd negotiate down $10 for me, because of my Game Boy Guru project, but it's still pretty ridiculous to potentially lay out that much cash.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on July 22, 2015, 01:03:10 PM Recent ones sold for $75 (Canadian version) and $80, which isn't terrible for a 1st party, CIB Game Boy game. Unfortunately, since so many Game Boy boxes were thrown away, they command a higher dollar amount than console boxes, and since it's a 1st party title it demands more $ than others.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Duke.Togo on July 22, 2015, 06:24:24 PM If you can get it for $80 and it's in great shape, that's a fair price. Going to be tough to do better, but patience can pay off.

Part number is RX8031. Generic case for atari 400 and early 800 titles. ( i think 15 in all ). Its an oddity for the title.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: retrosportsgamer on August 01, 2016, 09:05:05 PM I thought the US version were ALL blue. The brown ones are from europe iirc. I see that recent completed sale too for $50 - I auctioned mine off (complete) two years ago and don't even think it cracked $20.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: SirPsycho on August 01, 2016, 10:27:30 PM The Sega spike is upon us. Just a couple years ago I grabbed a nice ebay lot of 18 CIB Sega games, 4 Master System, 1 32X, and the rest Genesis. What started as a near FMV buy of some uncommon stuff turned into a one game value lot since.
$140 after shipping for a bunch of games with El Viento. 3 recent sales between $100-150, and I think the $100 sale undercut itself, the other two are $150. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Beardcore84 on August 02, 2016, 10:00:01 AM See that's what I was thinking.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on August 02, 2016, 10:12:21 AM They think the blue label itself is rare, that's why. Not many SMS games had the blue label.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Beardcore84 on August 02, 2016, 06:12:52 PM Yea, I understand that, I did mean, every US release of Slap Shot had a blue label. I'm 12 games away from a complete set, and just want to understand why a hockey game goes for so much, haha.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on October 12, 2016, 04:09:10 PM This was just for the module, not for the LaserActive WITH the module. It was going for $400 back then. I was offered the entire bundle with both PAC for $1000.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: understatement on October 12, 2016, 04:29:34 PM Yea I understand It wasn't with the system, but I was thinking the $300 to $400 range was closer to the Japanese version I thought the US one was way more scarce and sought after, but if you're sure that's kinda a gut punch lol, oh well.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on October 12, 2016, 04:53:08 PM Anything related to TG-16 has gone up a lot since then, so it could still be legit. Having a working one is still a rarity worth owning.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Crabmaster2000 on October 15, 2016, 08:01:12 AM I think Ray might be quite low on that one.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shadow Kisuragi on October 15, 2016, 10:25:14 AM ^ Like I said, it was high at the time but TG-16 prices have skyrocketed since then. Back then, Magical Chase was $1000.

I don't feel so bad about the lot I jumped on.

Back then, Magical Chase was $1000. I don't really know because I wasn't looking for one at that time but that seemed low to me for just 2~3 years ago compared to what I remembered them going for in the late 2000's.

That makes more sense that's around the time I got my current Laseractive with the Genesis and PC-engine PACs for about $400~$500 so $900~$1,000 for everything US would have been a pretty common asking prices at that time. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: cverz2 on October 18, 2016, 05:53:38 PM My coworker's PS3 died and he asked if I wanted to buy his stuff. What is a fair offer for this lot.

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: cverz2 on October 20, 2016, 04:26:39 PM Quote $50-$60? I was thinking 50. So I was about right on then. I'll probably flip the dualshock 3's and keep the games. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: singlebanana on October 20, 2016, 04:51:15 PM Yeah 2 to $3 each on the games and around $15 each for the controllers. That puts you in the 50 to $60 range

Box doesn't have styrofoam...I'm completely lost when it comes to boxed console values. What would ya'll value this lot at? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: InvadErGII on December 29, 2016, 01:20:18 PM Not a price check exactly, but I came across an opportunity and I'm really not certain if it's worth considering. A guy in a local LGS group wants to trade a copy of Little Samson for a copy of Surprise at Dinosaur Peak, straight up. Price Charting currently has Little Samson at around $300 pricier than Dino Peak, though I'm reasonably certain that the latter is a lot rarer (and would be harder to get another copy of later on). I have a very nice Dino Peak, and do not really want to part with it, but I would really love a copy of Little Samson. Ugh.
Assuming everything is legit and the condition of the game is fine, would you do this? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: singlebanana on December 29, 2016, 01:29:10 PM I'll take that deal in a heartbeat invader
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Duke.Togo on December 29, 2016, 07:36:31 PM Samson is a much better game, and I would expect the value difference to increase over Flintstones. I'd do the deal.

What would you pay for this lot? I'm looking to keep one R.O.B. and resell the rest...also there's that copy of Chiller in there...thoughts? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: singlebanana on January 08, 2017, 11:48:04 PM Would depend greatly on the working condition and completeness of the ROBs. In my experience, most would probably be non-working. The value is really in the stands and tops, which are usually missing. Robots go anywhere from $35-$50 alone and complete can fetch much more if working. Unless I could test them, my offer would be $25 - $30 each. Chiller is around $50, so with the rest of the lot, I'd see if $150 or $175 would take it. Wouldn't pay over $200. Just my thoughts but others should weigh in. And oh yeah, if you get it, sell me a ROB please. :)
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: singlebanana on January 08, 2017, 11:53:04 PM Also, try to make them make the first offer. You may get lucky and they offer you considerably less, or you might be able to gauge how far off their rocker they are in term of value. If the former, congratulations, if the later, make an offer you think fair and then walk away if it doesn't pan out.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shepy on January 09, 2017, 12:02:23 AM He's asking $200....we'll see if I can talk him down a bit.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Duke.Togo on January 09, 2017, 12:03:00 AM Rich is right on this. Also, sell me a Gyro set. ;)
Edit: $200 isn't bad. If the ROBs are dead, you can get some gears to fix if you don't mind a little work.

No, mine! :) Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: InvadErGII on February 12, 2017, 04:09:18 PM Came across something interesting today - a CIB Atari Lynx bundled with 18 *sealed* games (I don't recall what they all were, but I remember Chip's Challenge, APB, and some other minor stuff). $300.
Thoughts? If it makes a difference, it's unlikely that I would keep them sealed if I bought them to keep. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Duke.Togo on February 12, 2017, 06:12:13 PM I am not sure on price, but I have found a lot of sealed Lynx games. They don't seem to be that rare.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Ikariniku on February 20, 2017, 03:51:19 PM I have Jack Nicklaus Turbo Golf for Turbografx-16 CD. It's a CD version of Jack Nicklaus Turbo Golf. Ebay only has one listing for a CD version of Jack Nicklaus Turbo Golf on CD in comparable condition to mine. It sold for $63.40 from a seller in Great Britain.
*EDIT* I meant to include the condition my copy is in. It only includes the jewel case, manual, and CD. That's not much to go on and unusual circumstances, so I post here to see if anyone has a sense of what this game is worth. Opinions? *EDIT* Traded to Crabby, approximate value, $80-$90 USD. Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Ikariniku on April 24, 2017, 05:16:24 PM This is a bit of an unusual price check, but I'm interested in what the posters here will say.
I was at a local game shop that has ebay-ish prices with occasional good deals. I absently looked over a stack of SMB/Duck Hunt carts and saw the price: $20 (USD)! I know it's a desirable cart, but this really came as a shock to me. It wasn't too long ago I was picking them up for <$5. So, what prices are you all seeing out at shops in your areas? Is SMB/Duck Hunt on a steep incline? Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Duke.Togo on April 24, 2017, 05:36:03 PM I've noticed it's gone up in stores. Not due to rarity, just that it's something that stores will sell reliably with systems. It also keeps eBay sellers from coming in and cleaning out their stock.
Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shepy on May 15, 2017, 05:15:38 PM Looking into purchasing this Channel F lot from another collector. He doesn't seem to have a price in mind and I'm not really familiar with this stuff. Thoughts?

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: phalium on June 09, 2017, 10:29:12 AM I am looking at picking up Hexys force for the PSP, which someone is selling a complete copy for $65 (Canadian).

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: Shepy on July 07, 2017, 01:38:40 PM So someone locally contacted me asking for an offer on a copy of Snatcher. I don't even own a Sega CD so I'm no expert in this area. I know the game goes for about $500 complete. Looking for some advice on how to handle this. Thanks!

I tried to low-ball on the TMNT games a bit due to the trashed labels and used VGPC for prices:

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: SoC Monk on February 03, 2018, 10:15:07 AM So I just found a yard sale with a guy selling a bag full of games. He didn’t really know what they were, I wasn’t to sure either, but I got about 30 games all in excellent condition for $20. They look kind of like the sonic and knuckles game but they don’t open on top and they all say command module. Is that good? And can anyone tell me what these are?

Title: Re: Price Check Thread Post by: MetalFRO on February 05, 2018, 09:36:43 AM There's a game store I go to on occasion that has Cruise Missile for the 2600, but they want $20 for it. Current loose price on Price Charting shows the average price is $8.00, though it does show $19.99 as the eBay price. I checked with the clerk, and that's non-negotiable. Any thoughts as to the game's rarity, or whether that's a good "street price" for the game? I know nothing about it, other than it's by Froggo Games, and isn't nearly as common as Activision titles, for example.

Given that they're all complete, as long as the discs aren't destroyed, I'd say this is on par with current pricing, and would be a safe pickup.

It is the Rockman Dash Demo disk from the Capcom Friendly club. I've found some sketch information from a Mega Man fan page, but not much else to go one with it.
I was looking to get a rough estimated value of it, but in the time I've had it I've never seen it on eBay or anywhere. Anyone know about this demo?? link to fansite - http://www.rockman-corner.com/2008/07/rockman-dash-beta-eight-year-search.html |
