yeah thats a good price considering its reasonable to charge 30-35 for titles that require a battery and FF2 does and maybe earthbound?

Earthbound can fetch a little more you might make a few bucks, just as yourself is it worth the time, maybe for you it is, so just try and find out.

I don't think anyone was condeming you for asking.

I am going to be in need of an EB. Was gonna contact coinheaven. But the label he shows on his site doesn't match Tusky's box, so depending what label it has, I'd be interested.

repros are sketchy. you could make a little more for the bigger titles, but you can't really sell them safely on ebay anymore. at $25 a piece, I'd pass. you could get about that much at gamereproductions.com.

You forget to mention that it takes that dude a month to get your games ready, so honestly, buying a copy could be useful to get the game quicker. I still don't understand why people plug this guy when Joe from CoinHaven is one of our own and he does a much quicker job of the deal.

limited edition fifty dollar tins.

No that's mean coinheaven does good work with runs of games that didn't get released here. Everyone should buy his things.

But on the other hand Necrosaro from gamereproductions does (did?) post here and he's been around forever too so whatever.

Ya, I didn't know either until recently. I'm not even an EB fan, but I was kinda like, hey that's a cool piece, gotta get that. Gotta get the cart from someone else though. I'll see if coinheaven can make the label match. He's definetely good at what he does!

You could always buy just the label from gamereproductions. Its only a couple bucks.

hate to tell you, but the guy from gamereproductions is also a member here. In fact he was one of the first to join the site, though he doesn't post much (necrosaro420).

I plug gamereproductions because 1- he is a member 2- i have had like 10 transactions with him and they have all gone well 3 - he is the cheapest around not requiring a donor and usually sells 4 games for $80-$90.

i have also dealt with coinhaven (great transaction), videogamekingdom.net (don't recommend - had some bad roms), and nesreproductions.com (have to send in a donor). overall, i recommend gamereproductions. You can do whatever you want though.

gamereproductions does fine work, i would recommend him as well, but the wait time is long. i think this is due to the volume of games he sells and that he makes snes ones, which are very time consuming. it is also a good deal for 4 games for a 100. i charge a few bucks more, but with that you get your games faster, so its really a trade off.
