    Default Nintendo Collection going up!

    We're selling lots of stuff, I have hello kitty and care bears up, but what will interest you guys is that Brian is selling most of his Nintendo collection. Most complete, some sealed, etc. He's not parting with all of it just yet but with over 500 complete ones to go through quite a bit will be going up.

    More coming every few days, feel free to bid as long as you live in the US and are a little patient with shipping

    I'm interested in quite a few of those, but I just looked at the USPS website to check on posting, and being extremely generous (saying it was a 1lb package), priority mail only costs $3.85, and thats not even declaring it as media mail.

    So basically, why so much for shipping?

    actually, it's cheap to combine shipping, we buy delivery confirmation on every package, and pack generously with bubble wrap, bags, etc. So that's like what 50 cents handling? It sounds stupid, but bubble wrap and packing peanuts are really expensive. Plus we have a flat rate until a large size box. Like when we had all those Lunar 2's that cost us almost $7 to mail, shipping was still $5. Sometimes we pay less then it actually is, usually we end up eating shipping cost even at an "outrageous" $5. The $3.85 is without delivery confirmation and the smallest box they make.

    Hmm..If I were a mod, I would shimmy this into the buying/selling section, but no big deal. :)

    $5 is more than generous on shipping if you ask me. most people that sell games in the box or sealed charge atleast $6. and hes right.....you almost always end up eating the shipping costs......especially with people that combine because it throws things off alot. shipping is always hard to calculate anyways with a majority of ebay buyers complaining about shipping anyways. i usually try not to buy small things that way shipping is no object......whats an extra $10 on the $200 in stuff i'm already getting? no big deal......just calculate shipping into your bid.......alright i'm done giving advice......

    Yes it is a good deal on Ducktales sealed. We sold one at $75 already but this one someone bid instead of buy it now -- the funny thing is that a few months ago we offered the sealed games we had for like $20 each here on the board and nobody jumped on it. Thanks, because we have 4 of those Ducktales and had no idea they were worth that much

    Oh yeah, and I'm a girl not a he! :P
