Despite the crazy shipping cost I'm just hoping, praying they're complete games.

If they are complete or near complete, decent buy?

Thanks!

Ended up getting it to work punching in just the item number, 130387705156.

Looks like a nice lot, how much did shipping come to?

Nope, you don't know if the instructions are in all the boxes...

I think it's a hella deal even if the games aren't complete. It's usually the boxes that are the hardest to come by. You can almost always find manuals for them on eBay somewhere.

Ohh I see. Well, even without the manuals that's still a deal. The minty boxes is what captured my attention.

Judging by the condition I would imagine most are CIB. Most people won't treat the boxes that well yet throw away the manuals. They might lose a few but I would imagine a good amount would definitely have the manual

Update.
So wow, all games are CIB and in great shape. Dragon Warrior II and Final Fantasy have maps as well, no box for FF though.

Any ideas what these are worth?

I did a quick add in my head and got around 350.00 if you sold it all.

no. I just did another add up with a calculator this time. Got 380 so i wasnt that far off. Ill break it down for you.

CIB NES ACtion Set ~ 90
Ninja Gaiden CIB ~25
Dragon Warrior II CIB ~ 55
Castlevania CIB ~40
Castlevania II CIB ~20
Castlevania III CIB ~40
Zelda CIB~ 30
Ad.Link CIB ~25
Batman CIB ~ 15
Shadowgate CIB ~15
Final Fantasy Cart+ map ~25

Thats 380 my friend. Bids for that action set usually end around 75-80 so id say this one about 90 since it looks mint.

Quite a bit high.  I can't even give away Action Sets for $50 + shipping, especially at this time of year.  Not even near XMas.

Most of those prices are high end too, many won't hit those numbers at open auction.

Yep, that's to high. I'd say it's all worth about $200.

I sold an NES action set locally CIB for 100. I looked up how much auctions were going for and multiple bids and ending at around 70-80 plus shipping. Im not saying he could sell everything quick. 200 for all that would be a steal.

Also if you sold it all on Feebay then youd deduct some fees which would probably mean about 335-340


I know jonebone you sell a bunch on ebay. You of all people should know its not about what you would pay for it, its what ebay people and the general public will pay.

I will agree with you that local selling works better for me when it comes to systems and popular loose carts. $100 for that set is mega bucks. I bought one locally in mint shape for $65 and I was hesitant to pay that much. But paying for shipping is the lesser of two evils I figured.

That game list isn't anything to get to excited about. Unless they are extremely mint, they aren't going to fetch premium prices. Maybe he could squeeze $250 out of it depending on condition.

and i wasnt saying sell all together and youd get that much. If you broke it up youll get more. Systems sell by themselves regularly with all cords BIN's for 50 plus shipping all the time. There are two seperate prices for things. You have the collectors price, plus the ebay buyers average price.

Look at all of the red and hardly any green. If that doesn't tell you that they are over priced then I don't know what does.

At auction they'd be lucky to hit $50-$60, but if you want to hold out several months for $100+ then be my guest. Just like someone is holding out for a ridiculous high price on a certain 6-in-1 title.

Im not holding out for a high price. I listed it at 3k which is reasonable. If someone wants to pay it they can, but meanwhile i have been talking to many people on here about trades, and one is near finalized.

and about the action set. Ok the price has gone down a little, but his looks mint in box which will help it sell. I dont do many open auctions. Mainly BIN's which do get sold for me. How is that NES systems sell all day for 50 plus shipping and a CIB isnt sellable for 50-60?  Im not talking about at auction. I didnt say 100+. I said his could get 90 because of condition and if you listed it right. and i said it could easily sell for 70-80. not 100+.

Even if he got $90, how is he getting $290 for the rest of the games? Wayyy to high. It's not only the action set that is wrong in your assessment, it's everything. Sorry. 3 to 1 on this price check. Anybody else?

also pedro sells systems plus mario 1,2,3 for 79.99 plus shipping a piece easily. Bottom line. Dont do open auctions for systems. Do BIN's. and it might take a week or two but it will sell if its reasonable.
