I don't think that 9 PSX games for $76 is too much, especially when it comes to the family friendly titles like what most of those are. The only one that is an anomaly is the NBA Showtime.

There have been a lot of low-level bidders bidding on the lot as well...

I think it's a bit high myself though not insane.

You can get most of these titles at Gamestop for under $10 each and some for within $5 each plus you can use your 10% off discount card and not have to pay shipping.

I don't know if yours will get to be as much because they are mostly rehashed, redone, and rereleased every year. Sports games never go for much, and you can pick them up at gamestop for around $2 or $3 a piece now. Same with the first and second Tony Hawk and racing type games too.

On the other hand, Disney products always come with a premium, and always have a high resale value. Would I spend $75 on those games? No. Maybe not even $50, its just not my style. Nevertheless, parents who know little about gaming and see Disney stuff for the consoles are bound to jump all over that stuff. Plus its got SHEEP! That game friggin rocks! :D

I agree with what Joe said in his Collectors Closet column. He cites the "late" release games to be worth the most. Why? Because how many copies are they going to make of Sea Monkeys? These in my opinion will be the ones to have some value.

By the way i think 76 for those games isnt to bad when you see all are family titles, in good condition, and some may be rare some day.

They're still less than $10 a piece, and Kingsley's Adventure is a little tricky to find, so it's about right.

@Nesuser2: There's a lot of Playstation games that are worth something. Go check the rarity list. :)
