Odyssey 2 rarety questions!

[NESaholic]

Hey people i got some questions about these games, i own a few complete copies and some boxed parker bros. versions.
When i look them up in the rarety guide they mostly go loose for 10 or 20 bux,form the parker bros. version i got the boxed Popeye,the rarety guide tells me it's worth $35 loose, is this price up to date or old pricing?
I got some more like Q*bert complete,Super Cobra boxed, Frogger boxed, i put 'em up in buy/sell/trade and some people tell me they ain't worth the price mentioned in the rarety guide.
I sold 2 of them for $40 incl. shipping though i have doubt how much to sell the others.
I don't know all to much about Odyssey 2 games and the rarety guide confuses me a bit,the prices are for loose and i got mostly completes and some boxed.
Any help would be mega appreciated!

Thanx for reading,
Hakan

I'm not really into Odyssey II, but i have been collecting Videopac (european version of the Odyssey II) for a few years. Here are my observations:

1) Loose Videopac cartridges are basically worthless. Almost all games that hit the market are boxed and complete, so most collectors skip the loose games and wait until a boxed one shows up.
2) Prices have been going down big time lately. Some of the more rare releases that used to go for over EUR 300,- are now selling for EUR 100,- or less

Cheers,
Raymond

I would say around EUR 4,- a piece for the complete ones. They are all pretty common.


Q*bert compl.
Frogger boxed
Super Cobra boxed
Popeye boxed

These might fetch around EUR 10,- on a good day. They are a little more rare, but not that hard to get. You could also check completed Videopac auctions on Ebay if you want a second opinion :)

Pay a visit to my website, click on carts then click on the picture of the cart in question.

there is a areity guide, and value in UK£ (£1=€1.4) roughly.

My guide prices include postage to uk from countries where the carts are more popular. so for example a cart listed at £5, the post is probably £3 of that makeing a game alone worth £2) however the total cost of ownership to a collector or for insurance would be £5.

read the collecting part at the top for a breakdown of prices.

an incomplete cart (no box) I would half the value listed.

as mentioned all your carts are commoners, so your not gonna make a killing.
