Old PC Games

[Darth Sensei]

So I have a bunch of old PC Games. Not much of it is complete. Lots is CD only. Some loose manuals. Some boxes.

Is this stuff worth anything? This is just a small portion of it. It'll take me like 2 hours to list it all, and after all that, am I going to get anything out of it?

I also know there is some D& D stuff, old sierra stuff, some old lucas arts stuff.

What do you guys think?

GK1 is worth around 5-10 bucks. All those SW Jedi Knight can be sold for $15 at least if oyou bundle them together. The Civ CDs are pretty much worthless since that game's been reissued several times.

Sierra and Lucas Arts stuff can fetch a good price if they're in good shape.

disk only pc games are mostly worthless, boxed games will net you a few bucks, a few like the ultima collection will net you big bucks on ebay.

the sierra and lucas games might get you ok amounts.

I used to buy a lot of PC games for full price. Now I see most of them drop down to $5 or less. So each of your PC game is worth between $1-5. If you have Space Quest original collection, Ultima collection, Leisure Suit Larry original collection, King Quest original collection, and Wizardry collection; it would worth a lot.

[Darth Sensei]

So, would you pitch this stuff or sell it in large lots for basically shipping cost on here?

I'd pitch the non-boxed stuff. The rest of the stuff you can try selling individually on the B&S forums, but I wouldn't do ebay with it unless you do some research first and make sure it's worth the listing fees.

The Space Quest, Leisure Suit Larry and King Quest collections... the old ones aren't worth that much anymore since Sierra / Vivendi released the crappy shovelware ones with DOSBox in the package.

You will be amazed how much the original game is worth. The original collection games have extra games not found in the new re-release version.

For Space Quest, the original has 6 games while re-release version has 5 games.
For Leisure Suit Larry, original has 7 games while re-release version has 5 games.
For King Quest, original has 10 games while re-release version has 7 games.

Space Quest original Collection (http://www.amazon.com/Vivendi-Universal-73110-Space-Quest/dp/B00001OWYP/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1196659764&sr=1-2)
Leisure Suit Larry Ultimate Pleasure pack (http://www.amazon.com/Leisure-Suit-Larrys-Ultimate-Pleasure/dp/B00003OPCR/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1196659720&sr=1-8)
King Quest original Collection (http://www.amazon.com/Vivendi-Universal-73120-Kings-Quest/dp/B00001NFRB/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1196659614&sr=1-2)

I don't consider Amazon sellers as a valid price gauge for any items at all. I've sold all those games at least once in my entire time selling stuff on eBay, and the prices just crashed when those stupid compilations were released. Only complete and minty ones are worth good money. Disk only ones are worth very little.

It's true, some original releases are worth good money, but it depends on rarity. Sierra collectors are pretty anal about their games.

[Blitzwing256]

I wouldn't just toss all the disk stuff, but it definatly woudln't be worth your time and money listing them, were it me I'd just sell them in a big lot for cheap (someone might actually want to play em or something)

[Dark_Sol]

I guess better throw it away. Leave some all-time classics and dump the rest.
