Hey guys, I wanna clear out some games I don't play anymore.
Do you think 40$ for the lot is a fair price ?

>>	Anonymous Fri Nov 1 16:52:11 2013 No.1171361 I can't really tell what the game at the top left and the middle row, right are.

>>	Anonymous Fri Nov 1 17:02:12 2013 No.1171382 The only games in there worth a tit are Starfox and Clay Fighter, IMO.

>>	Anonymous Fri Nov 1 17:06:12 2013 No.1171396 I'll be honest with you. I wouldn't pay $40 for those games. You would need something like Zelda, Super Metroid, Donkey Kong Country, etc. to sell those games for 40 bucks. Sorry.

don't do that, and don't listen to the two people that are telling you that you should sell them for 20-25 dollars, they are just being douchebags and either don't know what they are talking about or thinking they can sucker you into giving them a lower price.

>>	Anonymous Fri Nov 1 18:03:38 2013 No.1171538 Probably more like $20-$25, $30 if you're lucky. The sports and RR/Tom and Jerry games are worthless and Star fox, while great, is actually not all that valuable. The 4 in the square are around $5 each, maybe a little less.

>>1171521
Double Dragon - $11
Clay Fighter - $9
Tetris 2 - $3
Starfox - $10
Roadrunner - $3
Super Bases Loaded - $2
Tom and Jerry - $6

People always look at the prices on Price Chart and think "That's what I'm going to get". Why would someone pay you what they could buy it online for? $20-$25 maybe $30 if you found the right person (what >>1171538 said) is right. I bought some games from a guy today who wanted $31 for everything when they added up to $28 on the chart. He seemed offended when I asked if he'd do an even $30 because I didn't have any $1s. He really seemed offended when I said that I looked the prices up. He puts a general price on things unless they're "rare". It's a pet peeve of mine when someone calls a game rare just because they haven't seen it too often.

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 4 05:34:55 2013 No.1177376 >>1171504 Super Metroid's only a $35 if the cart's in prime condition and the seller's a jew. I got mine somewhat scuffed about 4 years ago for $20.

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 4 05:35:55 2013 No.1177378 >>1171504 Also, DKC 1 & 2 usually go for at least $12, if not more. You may be able to get 3 for less because it was god-awful, unless the market's so warped that it's worth more due to "rarity" caused by a lack of sales, due to said awfulness.

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 4 07:08:42 2013 No.1177426 >>1177378 >You may be able to get 3 for less because it was god-awful Oh. It's that guy, again.

42.81 PC value, which isnt market value, and even less in a package like this.Few games of different styles.
You can probably get 20-25$, and closer to that PC value if you sell them over the course of a year piece by piece on craigslist if youre lucky

I don't see any way $40 is a fair price for that lot but that doesn't mean you can't find some sucker who will pay that much.

Starfox is rare and expensive. Hurr Durr. I see it for $1-$1.5 all the time. Just because I find it cheap doesn't mean it's not rare. Hurr Durr. inb4 some asshole says it.

And what's with all this reseller hate faggots? If there weren't places people could take their old games and get a bit of cash they would end up in a landfill because people are to lazy to sell them. Yeah, the prices are high, so I laugh at them and go out and find the stuff on my own. Stop being lazy butthurts and hit the flea markets.

>>	Anonymous Thu Nov 7 00:37:20 2013 No.1182802 Nothing special here, but if you can get $40 for it all, then go for it.

I believe the reseller hatred in /vr/ primarily stems from some of their unethical/dick practices:

- Setting exorbitant prices and refusing to haggle
- Bragging on how they get their stock dirt cheap
- Snooping around every yard sale/flea market buying everything, sometimes long before they open, OR EVEN the day before
- Spamming Craigslist with ads
- Not caring about games, the game culture, or even their customers
