    Default Any of these C64 originals worth $3/each????

    My local video game shop is holding these for me until tomorrow night. Are any of these worth $3/each? I would like to turn a decent profit on any of them so I can buy some more stuff that I collect. Let me know what you think guys/gals.

    Pathwords
    ArcticFox
    Parallax
    Pinball Construction
    PHM Pegasus
    Adventures Construction
    Heart of Africa
    Ocean Ranger
    Heartland
    CardSharks
    Cosmic Life
    Kindercomp
    Peanut Butter Panic
    ALF Color Caves
    Bubble Burst
    Bedtime Stories
    M.U.L.E. (I've heard this is RARE??)
    Twin Pack of Yesod games
    Road to Moscow
    Red October
    Perfect General
    Spy vs. Spy
    Last V8

    Cartridge only games:
    Ducks Ahoy cart
    Jungle Hunt cart

    I am also listing this in FS/Trade section so that I get exposure there as well. Most of these are complete with box, disk, and instructions. Anything worth getting in there??

    A few of those (Parallax, Spy vs. Spy, M.U.L.E., and the Last V8) were somewhat popular and you might be able to sell those. As I just said in another Commodore thread, piracy on the C64 was SO commonplace that it's tough to find anyone who either doesn't already have copies of them, or had originals in the first place and is looking for replacements.

    Either way, good luck! I always enjoy seeing C64 posts! eBay recently had a Spy vs. Spy go for $5!

    I managed to thrift up ultima trilogy, ultima IV, Ultima V and Ultima VI. All in complete and decent condition. Managed to walk about with about $80 out of all of them if I remember right. I got $50 for one of them and the rest were around $10-20. So, not that it helps alot but just check out epay. type in commodore 64 and check out the high price section....check completed items and just buy the ones that are worth your time. Personally, buying something for $5 and selling it for $15-20 isn't worth my time if it's going through ebay and paypal...unless it's on a larger scale, like a couple hundred games. But hey, to each their own....good luck with the games and sorry and can't yield any better results than this....

    All of them are worth $3 each, if not just to collect, but also to play. Collecting originals is the new "in thing" for C64, because of the packaging and instructions...
