My friend that I haven't seen in a while is selling me half of his SNES collection. This is what he has on him
mk3 aladin bugsy super mario all stars 2x super mario world battle toads in battlemanaics turtles iv plock clayfighter tournament edition mairos time machine dk conuntry 3 1 and 2 zelda a link to the past college slam and battletoads/double dragon
I wanna give him a fair price, but I also want a good deal myself.
They're all loose. Someone price em for me real quick? Thanks

I don't have a number off the top of my head, but if you wanted to give him the fairest of prices, then just go to the DP guide and get the prices for each game.
If you wanted to get a little 'deal' then, I guess you could take a dollar or two off of each game then.
I dunno, I'm tired. Classes start soon, and I wanna sleep.

all right...fine. But I'd still want someone to tell me if my final price is reasonable

In total, the DP guide says 85 dollars
Way too much for me. Anyone got a good estimate for this many games? I mean, I wouldn't think Mario's Time Machine would be worth 8 dollars loose O_O

DP prices tend to be on the low side, if anything.
Aren't SNES games priced as complete in the DPG though?

$50...
I don't know, that's what it would probaby go for on eBay, maybe a bit more. It would have been nice if you used commas. And I can't really tell if that Donkey Kong Country is 1-3 since you listed them in a totallly-non sequential order.
What do YOU think is a good deal, that's what matters. If he takes $20, then give him $20.

If he doesnt value the older stuff as much as you. Then I bet he would be happy with 40 - 50 dollars ;)

Thanks guys. I'm sorry about not using commas, and it was hard for me to read too. I just copy-pasted the list he gave to me. He found a couple of manuals too. Everything is loose unless otherwise noted. Here's what I ended up getting for $40:
Donkey Kong Country, w/ manual
Zelda: LttP (players choice) w/manual
Super Mario World, 2 copies, 1 manual
Battletoads: Double Dragon w/ manual
College Slam
Disney's Aladdin
Plok
Bubsy in Claws Encounters of the Furred Kind
Clayfighter Tournament Edition
Battletoads in Battlemaniacs
Mortal Kombat 3
Donkey Kong Country 3
Super Mario Allstars
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (manual only)
He took out two of his games while we were making the deal, and afterward he said when he went back to his mom's house he'd give me two of the ones there for free, as well as some more manuals :D
I think I made out well.
