Very nice SNES games, wish my CL had those types of games on there.

Check out this really awesome WTB thread that I found, I heard this guy wants games at the cheapest rate possible!  Now on the look out for Unlicensed NES!

Yup that got my eye instantly along with Earthbound. I'm happy I never got rid of my Drac X cart and manual as they go for far more than they should be worth these days.

Holy smokes...that's, like, $750 worth of games right there O_O . So far, I'd have to rank this towards the top of the finds of 2011. Extremely amazing score .

Yea guys I couldn't believe it myself. I have gone through about 60 percent of the games and they are all working flawlessly with no problem. I found some dirty spots, stickers and names on the back of the carts but nothing a little elbow grease didn't clean up. I have been admiring the lot since I've been home this afternoon around 6pm and its already 10:40pm. I am really happy I finally got myself a nice snes collection going. Now I'm not too embarrassed to maybe take a quick pic of my collection. I had a lot of $5 - $10 games but adding these was definitely a great start for 2011.

Awesome snag. It's cool to get a game like Earthbound in a lot like this, covering half of the lot's cost with just 1 game.

Crazy find, virtually all gems. Makes you wonder why he sold this lot for so cheap if it appears to be hand picked without any commons.

^^^ HAHA That was my expression the whole way down driving back from the guys place lol. He emailed me again today saying he found 5 more carts he'll sell me for $10 but there not all that great. The games are Uniracers, Super Mario World, Mortal Kombat, the Jungle Book and Street Fighter II. I have 3 of the 5 games but I'll go ahead and pick them up anyway =)

Can't complain about $2/game, even when you have 3 of them! Always helps to trade or to bundle with a spare deck right

-------------------------


"It's always amazing to me how some of the most worthless games from a gaming perspective tend to fetch outrageous amounts of money. But then again, it could be said that something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. I'm curious if the high bidder of the $873.04 Stadium Events (cart-only) realizes that it's nowhere nearly as rare as about 20+ games I can think of that sell for 1/10th that amount?  At any rate, I wanted to draw attention to this trend: if people say it's rare, it must be true, and therefore it must be had at any price."

Yeah at $10 it would be bad to pass it up, perhaps his is nicer than yours, or you could work towards finding a dirt cheap deck and rounding out some profit off the doubles and any others you have you don't want/like anymore. I'm watching locally for a $20 nes or snes I can nail down (or less $ hopefully) as I have a few carts I'd like to ditch but they're mostly filler quality stuff.
