Ebay Score: Action 52 (NES) CIB 9.99 :)

[hydr0x]

omg i hope this one is true and i'm not happy about nothing special :)

i just "won" this auction on german ebay, it was 9.99 BIN, ending in a few hours already though ;)

http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3084221670

it's a complete (and mint looking) Action 52 (NES)! the guide lists it as a R7 /$35

is that price correct, i mean, i hear all the time that this one is really worth a lot, so what's true?

i'm totally not into US NES collecting but i saw this auction and remembered the game as mentioned being rare so i bought it

i hope it's in great shape and really complete (what should be in there?)

ok just saw the 2 on ebay.com, mh i think mine was a real bargain :)

btw which variation is worth more, the transparent one or the other?

[Doonzmore]

Is there a transparent Genesis version of Action 52?

The nes section of the DP guide lists prices for loose games, and its prices don't reflect the ludicrous actions of crazy eBay bidders. So... I'd say you got an amazing deal.

thanks for your reply, 130 views and only 2 replies, what's happening here ;)

i realized that the guide lists prices for lose games after i posted ;) man i really hope this is in as good shape as it looks like...

@doonz

i don't know, i just read that the nes version has a label variation...

Ja, ja, ein blindes Huhn findet manchmal ein Korn. :)

Congrats, the box looks in really great condition, a nice ebay find!!

Is this pal though? Even if it isn't NTSC that is a great deal. The guy lives in Germany and has the game, so one would assume it's pal, but I don't remember if they made the Action 52 in non NTSC...

I don't know, might be hokey. Look through the sellers feedback and you'll see he's been selling a lot of copies of action 52 for that price, one even has a neg by it. I can't tell what the neg is about though cause I don't know German. I'm thinking bootleg, but hopefully I'm wrong; I'd really like it to work out for the best for ya.

Nice buy

[robotriot]

vision89: nope, the neg is not about the game :)

[vision89]

That's good, what's up with him selling so many copies of action 52? Seems wierd to me that he would have so many copies of such a rare game.

well, if you believe the box it's meant "to be used in AMERICA" so I assume that it's NTSC.

- no, the negative is about something else, not the game itself
- the box is clearly the US one (there are some scans online), and there is no pal version known, also no Australian one, so if it's pal it's even rarer ;)
- why is he selling so many? my theory: an import store (maybe his own?) bought a bunch of these but couldn't sell any back in the days and he is selling the ones they still have...
