Price Check Thread

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.

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.

[Shadow Kisuragi]

Coleco's probably more worthwhile than the INTV.

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.

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!

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.

That's a Canadian Action Set bundle, Project...pick it up!

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?

If you have games already ready to go with it, but no console to sell as a bundle, maybe. Otherwise, not really.

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?

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.

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!

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?

[Shadow Kisuragi]

All Donkey Kongs/Marios would definitely be a good buy. All 3 DKCs alone would be worth $45 cart only.

[GrayGhost81]

Right on. Let us know how it turns out Johnny.
