I have a pokemon snap station that still prints stickers, has extra stickers & ink, extra cards, and only has exterior sticker damage on the back of the kiosk. Aside from the sticker damage it also does not have the old signage or Pikachu keychain. I was just curious what these are valued at nowdays. I picked it up for $100 from a guy locally and fixed it up so that it looks nice again. Here's a video of me being excited about the snap station printing: 



Thanks for the help!!!!

I have the keychain, I'd part with it for the right price/trade. It's pretty massive and awesome (btw I used flash like a foot away so it looks faded here, but it's practically mint):



Prob the hardest part of the machine to find aside from the key itself.

Come on now someone has to know this... I know a functioning printer alone sold for $450 on ebay. I know the boxes of paper, cards, and ink go for around $100-$150 and I think someone just sold a shell of one of these with just the tv and n64 inside (basically completely nonfunctional) for $350. So what would a functional one be worth? $800? $1000? $1500? I'm just curious to know as it seems the price of these units keeps rising.

You basically have more information then anyone else apparently. I'd assume you'd be able to come up with your own value to what this item is worth.

Well I do have an estimate sure, but I was just wondering what other members believed it may be valued at. I don't want to ever over or under price my item by any significant amount.

Is the Pokemon cart still there? The NFS Pokemon Snap that is the last NFR N64 everyone ever needs will add a few dollars to your value.

No it has stadium nfr in it. If it had Pokemon Snap NFR I would've already sold it for sure.

The cart would be the only piece I would keep. The rest you should flip. As you say they are getting good money but who is buying these things for that much anyway?

I'm so done with the big bulky item that requires any type of maintainance. Plus who above the age of 8 really wants a Pokemon Snap station in his room.

Ermmm...me?

I don't recall the Pokemon Snap Station NFR being that much more valuable, but I guess when I think about it I haven't seen one sell in awhile, and it was one of the first NFRs I got back when it was cheap.

I would definitely be wiling to drop 4-500 on a fully functional one, but it seems like the parts go for more anyways. Perhaps he's right...unfortunately for your station it seems like parting it out MIGHT be a better option.

Mommy said I don't have the space in my room for it, but Vince promised he would replace the original stickers with custom ones he printed of "walrus parts" whatever that means.

Just like the Pikachu N64 system this is just too cutsy for me. Gut reaction is to puke..but it has some serious value.

400-500 is way low for the unit. A reseller would pay that. As a seller I'd expect double or more.

There are 2 versions of the Pokemon Snap NFR cart and the one which came with this unit is the single hardest to find N64 cartridge in the entire library. The NFR Zelda may be more valuable because every Zelda collector is after it but this one is the rarest.

I'd say 800-1200 but that is just a guess.  Post a higher BIN than this and take offers. With things like this where you happen to live could swing the price in either direction as most buyers of items like would much prefer a local seller.

Ask the guy who just posted in the promotional pin thread thread to sell you one of his Pikachu keychains. Not the exact same but pretty close.

I have a 100% complete snap station. My guess on the setup is $500 plus at 90% and 100% is $1000... Pokemon are landmark figures in gaming, not only video. Anything advertisement has appeal across multiple fields as well. To a game only collector it might be a few hundred no matter what. A pokemon fan 6-7 hundred, hard to say.

((NO I AM IN NO WAY LOOKING TO MAKE MY 100% COMPLETE SETUP 90% COMPLETE))

Yeah, I know that it's much rarer but I don't remember it being THAT htf is all I was saying...I guess it is. I remember picking up my Pokemon Snap version for relatively cheap.

I've seen units break the 1000 mark but it was some time ago. Big items like this can be high one day and crash the next. Not really sure ...500 , 1350 or anywhere in between.

It is really hard to gauge the value of big items.. Rarity and functionality always help but the nicest store display in the middle of nowhere i impossible to sell unless your willing to freight it.
