the "what its worth" question

[Niku-Sama]

ok so i was in the chatroom earlier and some one posted a link to ebay, i checked it out, went up a level and say a 6switch with 22 games and the other usuals for a "buy it now" for $80. first off i NEVER EVER buy any thing off ebay but i said in the chartoom this can be right these prices seem way off.

i say so and some one tells me (cant rember who right now) that thats about right any more. HOW THE HECK!?!? my first 2600 was a 6 switch about 50 commons and the other usuals for $10.

am i just finding super deals or is ebay wacked out of its mind?

You got lucky....6 switch with 50 games would bring close to if not over $100

it also depends on which 6 switch it is. the normal one isn't worth as much as the one made in california!

Just remember that, like anything else, it is 1.Being in the right place at the right time, with cash in hand, and 2. It is only worth what someone will actually pay for it. I have seen NES Stadium Events go for $850, and I've seen a little old lady at the flea market try to sell me a trashed 2600 Pac-Man for $8. (I didn't buy that one, BTW)
