Lightspan PlayStation games?

[josekortez]

I found what looked like a complete collection of Lightspan PS1 games today. The games were in paper disc sleeves and didn't have cases. The collection of games was in a huge box. The seller was asking $100 for all of them.

I wasn't able to write the titles down, but I'm pretty sure it was a full set. I may go back and buy them, but I'm kind strapped for cash right now so I just want to know what they might be worth before I put the money out. Thanks.

Do you know how many different games were in the batch that you've found? I know that a single box can't hold the whole run. I've got mine spread in two or three Lightspan boxes.

How you found them is how they were distributed to schools. In sleeves (yes some came in cases, but that was the very first batch and jewel case ones are pretty rare finds), with an ID card stating the games title and what its focus was inside of those bigger boxes, separated by ID cards for each series. See my below pic for an example of the box/game/ID card.



Most of them are only worth about 5 bucks a pop. There are a few rarer series that are easily worth two or three times that however.

The games arn't bad (in fact their production value is quite good), but they are pure edutainment and unless you're big into PS I don't think you really need to drop money that you don't have on them.

It was a Xmas present from SCEA in 98 or 99 to employees/high ups ect. The artwork is engraved into the bottle too! Thats what makes it pretty spiffy actually.
