I just picked up a few great games today, all complete with box and instructions. I was wondering if I got a good deal or a great deal. Thanks for the help.
Final Fantasy I for NES complete with box 2 maps and Explorer's Handbook for $10.
Tengen Tetris for NES with box and tetris poster for $8.
Dragon Warrior for NES with box and instructions for $5.

1. Yes
2. Very yes.
3. About even. It also came with some other paperwork that I can't remember at the moment.

Easy questions.
1. Well...assuming it's in decent shape, you paid about 1/4 of its value (goes for about $35-$40). So a great deal, indeed.
2. If it's in decent shape, you did better (by proportion) than you did on the FF (Tengen Tetris boxed with the poster would go for about $50). Insane deal.
3. This one's been all over the board, at least if it had the map, explorer's handbook, adventure card, etc. With only box and manual, you paid about 1/3 to 1/2 of its value. Nice deal, but not much to write home about. If it had all the extra stuff...I've seen 100% complete DWs hit $40 within the past month or so.

Thank you for the input.
The Tengen Tetris box is rough, but I honestly bought it to play. I've been looking for a copy but I didn't want to pay too much for it
I was super excited that FF had all the inserts. I wanted them for myself. I don't usually treat my gaming collection(addiction) as an investment. The real value I get from it is entirely intrinsic.
