Craigslist people, are they serious?!??

I like this... "I just don't feel it's something I felt comfortable spending $590.00 on when we are an Xbox 360 household" and then selling it for $385 when it's a week old!

That is pretty funny, but if he bought everything new that price is around right after tax. I don't know what the likely hood of him buying everything new is, but if someone snags that for $350 or under its a decent deal for someone wanting one.

Geeze, here's an example of people having no clue about video games.

There is no way this could be worth $5,000!

It probably isn't.
The only thing that immediately strikes me as possibly rare or at least somewhat valuable are maybe the Tec-toy games, Power Strike II and the Spanish version of Olympic Gold (I think that's the one I read on SMS Power).

$500 for Nintendo Power Set... I just bought one complete with 18 games just no NES Advantage controller for $220 from eBay.

$300 for an N64 and some games.

I love how they wrapped up the more valuable games in little baggies.

$1000 for 2 NES and 13 games. Hell yea deal.

[SparTonberry]

But it seems to contain the world's only color-changing Zelda cart!

... and they should probably get the naked kid out of the photo. :P

Not to mention that spilled yogurt next to the games ...

[johnvosh]

There is no way these games could be worth $60 a piece

Sure, why not?

Actually that's surprisingly not THAT far off-base. I've seen sculptors cuts hit idiotic numbers, conker is a 60-75 dollar game locally and the rest of them are solid 40-50 bucks a pop complete except for that copy of doom. So while it'd definitely be the very high end of retail, it's not the batshit crazy we've seen elsewhere in this thread.

Interesting! I guess I'm just a cheap bugger then as I'd only be willing to pay like a max of $25 for each of those games. Sorry about that.

No worries, I agree I *personally* wouldn't be paying the prices some of those games fetch now, but some of the N64 stuff has shot up pretty damned high all the sudden. Scultors cut (however you spell that) is 150-175ish now. Scary huh? lol Oh and that's cart only. Boxed copies are going bonko nuts.

[BricatSegaFan]

This ad seems a bit fishy. He states that he wants to buy Lords Of Thunder on TG16CD, however he mentions hes cool with just making an image of it. hmmmmm

Here's something you don't see everyday:

If he put that kart on ebay he'd probably get some serious coin for it. If memory serves correctly there were a few of these made by west coast customs. Gamestop gave away the mario edition I believe. They're supposed to be functioning go karts and given the WCC name and the price of their work, wonder what it'd end up going for.

[The 1 2 P]

Well he's definitely not getting $8,000 for it on craigs list. I understand he's using craigs list to avoid having to ship it but he'll soon realize that when you list on craigs list you need to list at certain prices if you realistically want your item to sell.
