SNES lot on Ebay (completed auction)

[koster]

I saw this while browsing recently completed auctions on EBay:
SNES lot - games, etc (http://cgi.ebay.com/SUPER-NINTENDO-SNES-lot-games-console-scope-gameboy_W0QQitemZ130189043971QQihZ003QQcategoryZ62 054QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)

And no, I am not the auction winner (or seller). I was just wondering what a fair price for the lot would be...

holy cow that is a great auction, probably worth $600 range, maybe more on a good day

[livingfora1up]

$240 for the lot doesn't seem bad, I wouldn't pay much more personally, but I'm pretty cheap. I'd say had it been broken in to pieces and sold seperately, it'd fetch $500 or so. But that's ebay prices

lol, that auction was only up for 11 minutes before someone bought it. Great deal

[FOnewearl]

Looking at this seller they also sold an NES lot rather fast.

But then I saw this auction from them lol

whoops! someone's getting royally screwed over.

[carlcarlson]

my first thought was that it's a scam. No way anyone would post such a low buy it now, and then have a huge picture of a CIB Earthbound right away in the listing. Then I saw the guy's feedback and thought "oh wow, I guess someone really DID get a great deal". But after seeing that second auction... huh?

lolz i hope the guy that pay that price can @ lease get the snes stuff to justify the price he paid for the lot

[PapaStu]

I think that NES lot went for so much due to the rarer Promo boxes that are littered in that auction. But i'm not a NES collector so I couldn't say that those would be worth that much apiece to justify 600 bucks.

Looks like that auction is the combined version of the SNES game lot (http://cgi.ebay.com/SUPER-NINTENDO-SNES-lot-games-console-scope-gameboy_W0QQitemZ130189043971QQihZ003QQcategoryZ62 054QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem) and the NES game lot (http://cgi.ebay.com/LOT-NES-Nintendo-Challenge-Set-games-game-genie_W0QQitemZ130189050003QQihZ003QQcategoryZ6205 4QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem).

I suspect the seller was contacted by ultimate_video_game_connection (the winning bidder of the combined auction), and is willing to accept negative feedback from the separate auction winners to get the extra $$$.

Apparently, the price of the seller's integrity is $325. LOL

I bet the seller realized that he sold the stuff too low and refunded the guy with some lame excuse.

Months ago I won (all complete IIRC) Alisia Dragoon, Thunderfox & Traysia from one seller. He started all of them at .01 with 3 dollars shipping and in the end it was $9 and change even without combined shipping which he didn't want to do. I paid him though paypal only to be refunded a few days later with him claiming that all of the games were "out of stock". About 2 weeks later he did one massive auction with the rest of his Genesis games that didn't sell and guess what 3 of the games included were :2gunfire:

I know non of these games are worth nearly as much as say Harvest Moon for the SNES (or more then a few bucks) but still I think the guy realized that even if he shipped media mail he was only looking at making about 1.50 per a game at best and didn't like it lol

Edit - I see what your thinking koster, it's funny how the guy that won the SNES buddle is a name I've seen selling old games and the winner of the SNES & NES is obviously another seller that wants to break up the lot and sell it for more money online. I'm sure they will make their money back but sometimes I swear some of these people will buy anything they can at least break even on. I find it funny when I see people selling games that are on clearance BIN for so cheap that they will only be making about $3 after it's all said and done lol Then it's sad when I get out bid on something I wanted for myself by somebody who is just going to have it sitting in their eBay store rotting at too much.
