Hello all, was hoping someone could give me an idea on what my sealed copy of 3 ninjas would be worth. Recently someone had one on ebay that was open box but complete for $999 and I dont know if he ever sold it for his asking price.  thanks for your input

!

It's worth a vacation to Hawaii.

it never sold, The last Complete one that sold was for 150$ in feb. to a member here. Dont really know what a sealed one is valued at currently though.

It seems like a game that is getting hyped up.

I mean, look at it from a casual person perspective. You would think it would be worth nothing

In any case, I have seen more sealed ones than CIB.

Hard to say, put it up for auction and we shall see.

Probably your best bet, something like this is impossible to say how much it'll go for.

there are fools ready to bid big money, auction it!

Why we gotta be fools?  There's also a long line of "fools" ready to bid big money on some Warrior Worlds too

you arent one of the "fools" who has been trying to buy that $1000 boxed copy with no maual, are you?
because there are a few fools that i know who have been trying!

i dont care about the hype, that box alone isnt worth a grand and there are people telling me it is.
they are fools...

id sell my 3 ninjas manual right now for $1000 cash, and if any fools are looking please let me know.

I'm a fool.. sell me that manual!

you know you are one of the fools i spoke of!

why not just take a huge shot at the sealed copy instead of my manual with writing on 2 pages and a box only for 2K total???

you might as well just bid the 2K on a sealed copy...

Bought my complete copy for $18 last year extra minty too...

Hmm... maybe worth getting VGA graded?

you have a link i never saw that auction. well if you get it graded that should increase the price by 10 thousand dollars. 

did you get it off ebay  I searched everyday for probally 3 years before i found my copy.

lol I guess everyone is entitled to their opinions, yeah it may be dumb to pay a high amount for a game, I think its even more dumb  to pay 20 times the value for a graded game. a extra piece of plastic and sticker doesnt mean squat to me,  but thats my opinion, for those who do it, if they enjoy it thats ok.  same goes for a lot of things, i think paying 5 grand for a weeks vacation is a waste but some people enjoy it, spending money on a fancy car, jewlery, tv etc  seems like a waste of money to some ,but if it what they enjoy i dont see anything wrong with it. 

Its a two edge sword. yeah it become frustrating when you want something but dont want to go broke buying it, but when other people want the same thing and are willing to pay more, thats life i guess. I would really love to get a stadium events manual and box but i know unless i find one at a yard sale it isnt going to happen, because there are those willing to pay the 10 grand for a complete copy, but thats life

fact is at this point there are a very limited number of cib 3 ninjas. until more are found it will go up in value since its one of the released titles for a complete set.

I can buy a 3 ninjas box cut in half if anyone wants to pay me for that lol.

I just think it's funny that there are people saying "lol its not hard to get you guys are crazy" yet only 2 more copies (this sealed one, and that random boxed copy on ebay) have come out of the woodworks since that one that wrldstrman bought. I seriously have a pretty damn good bounty for one if anyone has a CIB or sealed one for sale.

dont forget, nintendo_power swiped up the manual that surfaced not even a month ago

  Gotta agree with SNESfinder- 3 Ninjas is a game that is only HTF CIB and the fact that there are loads of carts available for next to nothing tends to support the view that more complete/sealed copies are around and yet to surface.  As the whole Stadium Events thing proved a high price can make loads of copies of a previously 'rare' game suddenly appear.

  By the way ladntendoplyr I would watermark that photo, just in case it should fall into unscrupulous hands.

same should be said of fun n games  there are always tons of loose carts on ebay for sale. but i havent seen a wave of cib,s hit the market.

well the only way to truly know is for him to list his sealed copy for a lot of money, if it brings complete copies out of the woodwork like some seem to think then, the price will reflect it. if none show up, then I figure one day he will get a ton of cash for it.

I think we all tend to forget, We like video games. There are probally hundreds of thousands of people who view them as worthless garbage and who just toss them out. So there is no actual way to ever know how many copies of any game are still out there. I mean right now someone could be cleaning out a garage and sending a cib stadium events to the landfill..Same goes I could of throw out a old vase or something that was worth 10 grand, but to me it was just a old vase. Ive talked to my garbage man and he remembers throwing lots of video game stuff in the dump. the one story is he said they picked up a old steamer trunk completly full of atari games. of course they thought the trunk was valaulable so the dumpped out all the games in the dump and kept the trunk. until we talked he thought old games were worthless

Eh this game was hyped way before Doug got his copy.  I've been looking two years and I've only seen the CIB that Doug bought, as well as the BINs mentioned in this thread.  I never saw a $20 one and I gladly would have bought it at that price.  After Doug got his copy, I believe Skullz listed a Box only for $500 (or is that the $1000 copy?) that never sold.

I don't see everything, but I find it hard to believe I'd missed a game that I have two saved searches for.  Only way I would have missed it is if it were a BIN that went very quick or a very poorly listed one or three day auction possibly.

If one sold, it wasn't on these boards or on DP either.  Only place it could have sold is Amazon, and I'll admit that I don't do a lot of browsing there. 

is the seam in the plastic across the bottom of the 3 ninjas box splitting open?

and doug, you still dont have a fun n games box or manual and the cart only sells seems to sell less than 10 times per year.
ive only seen one good manual and 3 boxes in almost 2 years and i bid $100+ on that manual a few months ago to get it.

why wasnt this your "holy grail" and hyped up instead?

Shags sold off his CIB on eBay late last year or early this year and it was around $200 I think.  It also had a good amount of wear.  Braveheart sold a CB copy only on eBay this Spring and it did awful, maybe $40?  I was quite a bit surprised.

And I may or may not have sold a dead mint CIB this year on the forums.
