Ok so i just picked up what i thought was a good sale on ebay. It was for bubble bobble 1,2 and rainbow island for the nes for 150.00 free shipping no boxes or books. What do you guys think? The carts are in very good shape.

pretty much market value, a bit more then you would have payed if you waited for the right auction , but not horrible either.
A little bit over, I think. Individually, you're looking at $90-$100 for BB 2, and the other two around $10-$15 each. While it's not like you paid a mint for them, it's off the high end by a little bit. If you're intending on keeping them and/or playing them, though, you'll probably get your value out of them .

Wanted: Any and all Dragon Quest, Lufia/Estpolis, Tales of series, and NIS games, strategy guides, and miscellaneous items. Will pay $$$ or trade well for items I don't already have.
Yeah, what others have said. Considering that was a shipped price, I'd say it was close to fair market value. Of course, if the games are in mint or near mint condition, then it's all good. I think I'd be a little peeved if they weren't tho. You pay top dollar, you should get top dollar.
yeah... i haven't checked for awhile but amazon usually has a copy of bubble bobble 2 going for $90-$100. the first one isn't worth more than $10-$12 tops but if you're desperate to play it and it's a favorite of yours then $15 isn't insane. rainbow island seems to be in the $10 to $20 range, according to ebay at least...
like everyone else said, you probably paid more than you would have if you had waited and watched and picked them up individually at auction but i'm always willing to pay a little more for a game i've been trying to track down for awhile that i know i'm going to play.
so, enjoy them. if you're plan is to resell, you might have a tough time getting your money back right now.
Actually, i'm pretty surprised you didn't check amazon if you were willing to pay full price for the games.
Rainbow Islands - $15 shipped
Bubble Bobble - $18 shipped
Bubble Bobble 2 - $94 shipped
Total = $127
Na these are mint. I knew going in the first one wasnt worth much but I havnt seen the second one for under 120.00 in my area. I wasnt even really looking for them i just happend to find them.
I'm not sure I could consider anything without the boxes or manuals "mint" but the point is so long as it makes you happy.
