No, really, I couldn't tell because this discussion is all over the place. F1 Pole Position?Originally Posted by GameBoyGeek
also lol @ buying games you don't like. (I figure the least I can do is try to urge you to buy things you DO care about so you don't end up dumping the collection at a huge loss some day...I don't know why people encourage this.) Don't get me wrong, collecting is fun and you can do what you like, but it's a thought.

that F1 pole position is worth a chunk. I had 3 people bid right around $300 and above on that, so it wasn't just one person driving up the price.
According to what I heard from some GB collectors, it was the first CIB copy to show up on ebay in 3 or 4 years
I am relatively new to GB collecting, and my collection pales in comparison to this one. Man that's extensive. But I was wondering about your consoles. Anything cool, like GB Light or Play it Loud?
I've got 1 gameboy pocket my friend got out of a car before he crushed the car. Works for his uncle. Anyway he had found a gameboy color in there too but left it for whatever reason. I dunno. I have 2 boxes for play it loud series gameboy systems but no actualy play it loud stuff.
Jeff I seriously appreciate your input on the f1 pole position. I personally really do believe that its worth the price I payed due to the rarity. Something my grandpa taught me was that sometimes what you put into something is what its worth so despite what I may have said on earlyer in the thread I honestly do believe I got a decent price on it. Was it high? yes. But again and i said this earlyer. Even if its only worth 100 bucks now the price most likely wont decrease and it jump up really really high in the next 5 years to like a worth of 800 or so. If thats the case then I got a deal a damn good deal and it makes my collection look that much better.
Ed pay no mind to my attitude I had just gotten several people making cracks about the f1 game earlier on and I just dont like when people pop off comments like "pft you paid what for that? what an idiot" I don't care what people think of me that's not it at all. I just dont like it when i ask for an opinion on something and then they start tearing me down about it. So no offense taken.
I remember when I picked up barbie game girl...that was....embarising....im avoiding mary kate and ashely games like the plauge.
Wow all those games and only one console?
Oh and if you are looking on ebay, you may want to check out the ebay store Classic Plastic. I imagine you may already have the carts, but if you have no luck finding boxes only, this might help you.
Actually I just bought 22 boxes from him Does he have more up now?
Oh wow, no clue. http://stores.ebay.com/Classic-Plastic-Store?_rdc=1
Na nothing I haven't seen before. But thank you for pointing him out to me.
Dats BootifulYou want pictures....I give you pictures.....
I couldn't find my camera last night and i was barely awake. So yeah everything that is listed here in the pic is what I have minus a few things I have more CIB games then I posted i just copied and pasted the list from my documents. I have know i have bubsy CIB and a few others that arnt show but the bulk majority of the collection is here in these pics.

U GAIZ JUST DONT LIKE CHANGE , (builds a artificial foundation here)
Thank You Come Again!:d
If the only GB system I had was that kiosk, I'd be pretty happy. Actually that's something I should try to hunt down before they become impossible to find...
Classic plastics has one on ebay right now. Im working out a deal with him because his is missing the keys and Im thinking the keys MIGHT be the same. So im gonna try and work out a deal to have copies made for him.
His price on that kiosk is simply ridiculous. I didn't pay 1/7th what he is asking, and that included shipping.
You may have already said this, but I don't feel like reading through all the posts again. Do you plan to collect some Game Boy Hardware? I know you mentioned a couple things you have, but do you plan to get more? Compared to what you've put into all these games, it wouldn't take much, and it would really boost the appeal of your collection, and would look awesome in the pics.
Oh, and like jeffg pointed out, F-1 Pole Racer IS worth around that much, otherwise it wouldn't have sold for as much as it did. Plus, since it was the only complete copy in years, it's just going to keep going up in value. I bet if you sold it right now you'd get more than you paid for it.
There's another copy up right now.
Did you notice the auction is obo?
Yeah, but he's paying high fees on that if he's willing to take much less. Not sure how store item fees are, but regular auction fees would be pretty high.
A lot of his stuff is priced way too high, but some of it is priced reasonably too. I'm still considering a couple items from there, but the price of that kiosk is humorous.
