Hey everyone. I went to the local auction today to see what was going to be at the auction tomorrow (Friday) and I came upon a box that contained the following:

Super Nintendo Entertainment System with cords (no box, kinda crap condition)
3 controllers (one is an original, the others third party)
A Donkey Kong Trilogy (dk, dk2, dk3 which were all in the boxes and in good condition.
Mrs. Pac-man (great cond. in box)
some bass fishing game (great cond. in box)
some other game that is loose.
plus all the strategy guides for donkey kong games.

Whoever owned this before must have really liked Donkey Kong.

To finish my post, I was just curious what you would pay for something like this at a junky auction. I'm hoping I can get it for under 20 bucks. do you think I should bid on this? thanks for reading and your advice.

the donkey kong games can go high. (do a search on ebay and see what they are going for) $20 would be a good deal for the 3 DK's. Are they complete or do they just have the boxes?

edit:

high = $15-$20 each

they are common carts though so don't pay too much

if any of them are the blockbuster compition cart of course you should defenetly get it.

Thanks. I went ahead and bid on it. I lucked out too!! I got the whole cardboard box of misc Super Nintendo stuff for only 15 dollars. This is what I received:

Super Nintendo Entertainment System with 3 controllers.
Game Genie
6 Donkey Kong Strategy Guides (3 originally from Nintendo Power)
Donkey Kong Country (complete)
Donkey Kong Country 2 (complete)
Donkey Kong Country 3 (box no instructions and no cardboard holder)
Mrs. Pacman (complete)
Bassin's Black Bass (complete)
Vegas Stakes (loose)

I thought it was a good deal for only 15 bucks. Eventually I will buy a SNES complete, This one I think will be mainly for testing games. Later.
