130 2600 carts, $130?

[NES_Rules]

I've got someone offering me $130 for my 130 loose Atari carts, there are many duplicates, only about 50 unique titles in the lot. $1 per cart isn't the best deal, but they are taking up a bunch of space, what do you guys think of the deal?

only one or two uncommon games, if sold individually you'd maybe get 2-5$ each for everything on the list so thats really not a bad deal for mostly commons (maybe ask for a few more bucks for mash and math grandprix), but if its just taking up space i'd do it.

Ask for $150. It's a nice round number. You're getting hosed a bit at $1 each, though he is saving you a lot of time.

Take the $130. You have tons of carts there that are hard to sell at .50 cents and a some that are worth more. $130 is a fair deal.

I agree with Blitzwing256. It took me a good 5 months to sell about 40 loose carts and it took about an hour to list, organize and post them around various forums. Most of them were commons and I listed them with prices between 25-70% of that in the DP guide, just used my judgement based on what game it actually was (gameplay, graphics, demand, commonality) and it's condition. Most every game cost me $1 each but gas to drive around nudges that up so to break about even was what I wanted and calculated well. So you can consider a few things:
1) What were your costs for obtaining and paying for them, then what is your loss/gain? (obviously free space could be considered as a gain)
2) Is this person someone you know or a random person? Maybe they'd appreciate expanding their Atari collection and someone to keep in touch with on other trades and selling/buying.
3) For the duplicates (assuming they aren't various carts), do they want them? Maybe you could keep those to be sold online or just continue holding onto them for playing. In this case you'd want to re-adjust the price.

Check out AtariAge for extra info. Look up the various cart publisher variants and make sure you don't have a more uncommon copy, sometimes you can push a value up some based on that fact. So I'd offer a $150 value to them and let them know what exactly is in there, not just "some copy of Donkey Kong."

Take the $130 and run.

I agree, paying $1.00 per loose VCS cart unless it's something rare or extremely uncommon is crazy to me. Then again, I just did that at the flea market this week but it was only two games and two I really wanted. Others were $1.00 a pop and that still felt overpriced. I remember when you used to get a box of loose VCS games for $1.00 at most yard sales. Now before I get bashed as someone who doesn't understand retrogaming, I bought plenty of full price VCS games in my younger days. Cash out and be happy.

If I could get $1 per cart for what Atari 2600 games I have, I'd take it in a heartbeat. And I have a handful of scarcer titles... I was actually thinking of listing the whole lot before much longer...a heavy-sixer with 112 games (3 non-working, about a dozen duplicates) for $90 plus shipping.

I say take the $130, You're making out like a bandit. I have a ton of common Atari 2600 games and they are hard to sell.

[Trebuken]

Keep the 50 unique titles and sell them the rest for $80.
