There's something about it being unlicensed that causes people to perceive that it's less valuable than SE (which I think is BS).



F2, CIB, I'd say $550.


err... isn't your math off? Wouldn't 1.5 times the cart be 1.49?

I'd go lower on myriad - I don't think its ready to go above 1600-1700 right now. It gets tough when you're asking someone to shell out that much at once, too. The unlicensed thing - to be honest I'm one of those people. If nothing else, its a cheesy looking box produced on a low budget. I mean "6 in 1 games" in hot pink? Christ. Very rare obviously and deserving of its place in the pantheon, but I definitely think SE should be #1 and myriad #2. It's just more of a 'legitimate' release. I can totally understand some collectors not even bothering with unlicensed. I like to have those ones too.. but I can understand someone not even bothering with them (although they would miss out on micro machines!)

It's so hard to tell on this one -- they never come up for sale.

ohh... you thought the .99 was the cost to the seller.

When you said that I thought it was a 'price is right' style bid in that you thought everyone else was going too high on the auction guesses of 1150, etc.

I hear you - that's what makes the guessing game fun, you can't be wrong. The more I thought about it, I changed my tune on the unlicensed aspect, see above.

Well, I would bid 1500 on the next SE box, 1800 on the next Myriad, and probably 800 on the Panesians.

I really don't know, but that would be my guess. 300-400 maybe? (complete guess).

my estimates:

I think a CIB flintstones in good shape right now would sell on ebay in the $650 range.

I think a stadium events box would sell in the $1200 range

A myriad with matching numbers, hmmm, I would say you are pretty close bronty in the high teens $1800 or so. I also agree with the assessment of it not bringing more because of the licensed vs. unlicensed demand.

Caltron CIB I'd say $375-$400



On the other arguement. I really don't understand why people get worked up when they get outbid on ebay by someone they know. I don't mean to sound callous here but its not your brother taking you out, its a person you met on a website and talk to in messages and posts. Don't get me wrong, I've made a lot of friends here and help other collectors out when I can. I'm probably coming off like a complete ass but those of you who know me know that I'm really not. Ebay is an auction, plain and simple. Highest bidder wins. If I'm really really looking for a menace beach cart and one pops up, why should I step aside just because Dain already has a bid on it. Nine times out of ten when you do that, neither of you end up with the item....somebody else jumps in at the end. Now for arguements sake here, I probably wouldn't outbid someone on these boards on a CIB super glove ball even if I needed it because I know I can find another in a very very short period of time. However, the vibe I get from most people is, the RARE stuff is free game but don't outbid fellow memebers on other stuff. What you are asking here is to draw a line on what is rare and what is not. That my friends is an impossible line to draw. Most people probably won't ever get outbid by me because I really don't buy all that much on ebay. But like I said in the other thread....feel free to outbid me as I will outbid you if its something I really want.

can't help but think the SE box would be more. Several people were lined up to give hounder four figures. I would say 1600 on a box right now although who the hell really knows.

and yeah, I hear you regarding auctions. Its true that many times when you avoid bidding for someone, it bites you both in the ass.

Bronty, the 3G you paid for the only sealed SE in existence is becoming more of a steal with each passing day It won't be too long before a nice condition CIB is worth that.

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

My mantra, as worded by SamSpade on 06/12/12:
I don't resell to fund my collection, I don't treat this hobby like a second job, I don't care if my collection is worth ten bucks or ten thousand because I never plan on selling it. Seriously, what does the value have to do with anything if you never plan on selling? Speculation doesn't mean jack shit to me at this point, I just want to play my nes games...

thanks. Not the only one in existence though - the bandai museum apparently has one, but they don't sell their stuff so it may be the only one available for collectors to purchase. Or there could be a palette of them somewhere, I guess.

Honestly I thought a CIB was worth 3k then. I'd say 3.5k for a CIB now

cart - 1200?
manual - 800?
box - 1500?

total 3500ish


and as I've said before, I do have buyatari to thank for not jacking up the price on me on that SE

^ Individually, that looks about right, but I doubt the three items sold together would go as high as each piece individually. I guess we'll find out when the next CIB one pops up on eBay, but that could be a few years away.

I agree.. for now I think vg collectors are too broke a bunch to pony up the dough for all three items at once. Which begs the question - why on earth would anyone sell it CIB and not in parts? Sooner or later someone will sell as a CIB, but I think most smart sellers would break up a CIB copy at this point.

Regarding the question of why people bid high early in the auction:

I think this auction is unique for couple reasons: most wanted nes game (imo), there hasn't been a NTSC up in awhile, listed very nicely.
But I think the real reason is there are 2 or 3 bidders who are trying to send a message early on. That message being: This one is mine!

But I have a new plan to get me SE. I'm gonna give my wife that second child she's always wanted and use the extra money on the tax return to out bid you guys!

It will be like buying SE on a 18 year payment plan!

LOL!



On estimates, I'd probably say something like this:



Next SE box: Assuming 7.5/10 condition, I'd say absolutely no less than $1300. 9/10 condition, and we're easily talking $1500-$1600. If one ever surfaces in perfect 10/10 condition, may God help us all...I wouldn't be afraid to say that one could end as high as $2000.



Next matched Myriad: Anywhere from $1400-$1700.



Next complete Caltron: In the neighborhood of $400.



Next complete F2: $550-$650.



Next Panesians: $500-$550 loose, $750-$850 complete.



SE in 2015: Cart-only, near-mint condition, I'd say around $4200-$4700, barring two things:



1. The find of a pallet-load of them in some random warehouse.



2. Uncontrollable inflation.



Complete SE, near-mint condition, as high as $7100-$7700. (Bronty...since you tossed this question up, keep track of my response...I probably won't be able to keep track of this for that long .)

I couldnt have agreed more with what justabum says. and honestly i used to NEVER bid early on an item. in fact i used to always think people where like retarded who bid first lol. But then i joined NA and i noticed a guy titled braveheart had a bid on like every awesome thing on ebay. And i remeber members here saying "who in the heck is braveheart and why is he bidding early on everything" lol........and then come to find out he joined this site and was a hardcore ebay buyer that always bid early. Well then after that it seemed like everyone wanted to bid before braveheart would bid and IMO this is how we all got where we are today. LOL Everyone fighting for the first bid like a pack of wolves. LOL Now dont get me wrong Erik is an awesome dude, he helped me out a TON with manuals i needed and he realy gives collectors great deals. i mean he sold me 190 NES manuals i needed for $1.00 each, (manuals i needed which were mostly tough to get manuals) And he did nothing wrong with bidding early, (that was his style) but since he became friends with a lot of collectors here, no one really wants to straight up bid against him because they may feel like they are back stabbing a friend etc. Which in all honesty this SHOULD NOT be like this.

As ya said ebay is an auction may the best bidder win. But to just jump from auction to auction placing the first bid on stuff doesnt really accomplish much IMO, just shows others that you want it and makes them feel confused and kinda bad to bid. Now if its something ya REALLY REALLY want i can understand, but to bid just to bid makes no sense at all.

Anyways im not trying to put the spotlight on Erik or anything, as i said hes a great guy and a good friend of mine. But this sorta technique is spreading lol, and you can honestly just search ebay and honestly anything GOOD worth bidding on, someone from this site has a bid on it lol, and im just getting lost on what to bid on around here. Seems like everyones staking claims all over the place.

I think im gonna go with justabum on this one, and if its something i want wait till the last second to bid. And if some of my buddies i know are bidding. than i am sorry, may the best bidder win. And as he said something like a cib superglove ball i will defintly pass on if i see someone i know really wanting it. But something like the next CIB swordmaster (which is like my TOP want right now) gets listed. im jumping on it. this is my 2 cents at least. anyone see where im coming from?

well put mark. I'm gonna add one more twist....

Now lets say Parpunk has a CIB color a dinosaur for sale on ebay and lets say nes_king is high bidder at $40.00. Do you.... A) not bid because you don't want to outbid nes_king? B) bid immediatly because you want to see parpunk get the most out of his auction? C) bid because you really want it? or D) buy a plane ticket and fly to omaha so you can slap justabum in the face for draging out this arguement.
