Agreed.

keep in mind how hard nes boxes are to find, espeically dw4, its really not in your favor.

however if you don't care about boxes and what not it is a decent pile of games. but again if you're collecting you can proably get something decent for said boxes again dw4.

[miaandjohnrule]

not a good deal

[Austin]

Wow, yeah. I stopped when I saw the DW4 box. Pretty tough to come by. My own DW4 cart is cold and homeless.

Isn't pirates like a $15 game aswell? Bad. Bad deal.

[Moo Cow]

Nope, don't go with it!

It appears it's just the Pirates manual. Still....

Basically, if you're a collector, don't do it. Those boxes are tough to find and you'll regret it later. If you're "only" a player, I'd consider it (try to lose the cash part of the deal however), because you are getting some good games you don't see in the wild too frequently.

I would say that its a pretty bad trade for you, just the dw4 box alone would be worth a fair amount.

My bad. Still, as far as manuals go, I'd imagine that's a fairly valuable one.

If you dont want to do it, and your friend is a DP member, I'd be interested in some of those games he's offering to trade you. It doesnt look like that bad a deal from my point of view, but then my collection leans more twords player then collecting.

[Parpunk]

Thanks a Lot for the info Guys. Yea I think ill need to change up the deal a little bit i was really thinking i was just all excited about games i dont have lol. I dont think ill drop the entire Cash part but maybe take away some cash. And the dw4 box and a couple other little things. thanks a lot guys!

[coreycorey2000]

Yeah I wouldn't part with the Dragon Warrior 4 Box if I was you. It can be pretty tricky to track down sometimes. If you could lower the amount of cash and keep the Dragon Warrior 4 box then I don't really see a reason not to do it. But without that I think the other person would definitely be getting the better deal.

[Buyatari]

You know alot depends on the condition of the box. If the boxes are in good shape I'd keep them. You really don;t want to trade boxed games for loose ones if you can help it.

Agreed. Take away the cash and the DW4 box and then see what he says.

[cyberfluxor]

That has bad deal written all over it. Although I must ask how much for Kings Quest V by itself? If it's dirt cheap I'll grab it! I've been wanting to grab if for the NES some time now because I love the old PC version.

[Ed Oscuro]

Bucky O'Hara (Airport?) LOL

Anyway, unless you're really steamed up over bandit kings and l'empereur, I'd say that is a terrible deal. I'd keep the boxes and sell them to somebody who will pay you a fair price.
