In mint condition with mario/duck hunt, all styrofoam manuals etc. 50 shipped? I think it was a good price.

If everything was complete with boxes also, then it was pretty good. Gamestop usually sells NESes for $50 without boxes or anything, so you did fine.

You could have paid even more for this (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3080498099&category=3617)... :P

Yea, if everything is good and complete like you say then I think you did pretty good. Its not the smallest thing in the world to ship and probably cost $5 or more of that for shipping so $50 shipped is a good deal.

Yup. You paid a good price. I would expect you to pay a little more on Ebay usually.

Yes!

I paid $40 for a bare bones NES system at GameStop last week. Looked to be UN-abused, so I had to have it. Reason....eBay; I looked up recent winning bids on "working" NES systems and was seeing aroundf $50-60 for a system, and after that, you'd have to figure in shipping.

Here's what I used to tell everybody who asked me the same questions.

If you like it and you can afford it and it will make you happy to own it....then by all means pay the man his price.

Agreed! Theres probably quite a few people out there right now that arent into NES or games but would pay up to 20.00 for a SMB/DH cart just for nostalgic value and be perfectly happy with there purchase.
