SNES Boxes?

[mickoz]

How much you think is a good price to pay for around 450 differents snes boxes?

I meet a guy tomorrow for a deal, and he is offering me them. I wonder if some people here will be interested in that. But I don't know if they are all mint, etc. I saw there was a breath of fire, turrican, on some of his pics, but there is no final fantasy II / III, chrono trigger, lufia, secret of mana and mega man x (at less the first 400 games did not have those apparently, he added 50 more).

If you might be interested, you might PM me how much you would buy for sure. If your price is right, I might get them from him tomorrow.

I will try to put some picture soon.

Here are some picture I got from him:

392 boxes unfolded:

Let me know how much you think is a good price for them, and if you are interested and how much you would pay. You can give me range.

I gotta give him an answer by tomorrow so I need fast answer ;-)

Don't go by what I say as this is a really general guess, but... $200?

200 sounds good , but I paid around 80 for the same amount a while back and it had some nice RPG boxes in there as well. Mind you I basically stole them ;)

You could make a ton making lots of those on ebay or better yet help out some fellow DPers :) I sold alot to dp members a while back and I charged about a dollar a box and aroun 2.50 for some of the RPG nad rares.



I am sure you will make a good decision. Remember start with a low bid and see if he bites.

That is an awesome lot of boxes. I see some real rares in there! I would say they are worth something around $1 each altogether but I am a big spender sometimes.

i hope i come across a lot like that im sure it wouldnt be too hard to piece somethign liek that together for 200 maybe 250 depending on titles woul dbe good price for the boxes.

[Habeeb Hamusta]

200 sounds fair; but i wouldn't be suprised to see you get it for much less.

[mickoz]

Yeah, well for 300$ CAD, I was able to get them along with 4 nes pirate cart (52 in 1, some kind of mario, apparently saying mario 5 on screen, a teenage mutant ninja turtle and castlevania holy diver or something..)

Anyway that was on the same day, now he will want a little bit more, etc.

I was not that much interested for that price. If I was a lot interested in the item, I would have taken them, but else, I would have taken them for a steal price or if other was interested to buy a lot from me. I dont want to buy stuff that will only take place in my house, there is not enuff already ;-)

For that whole lot, based on the condition. I'd say it's worth AT LEAST $300, but if they are all minty, they'd go even higher.


If you do buy them, I'd definitely be interested. I have a few that need to be upgraded.
