    Default Find of the Year!!!!! :-) Yep it is good!!! Advice needed

    Well this sure makes my problems with the idiot I sold the SNES to go away!!

    In WV, visiting my parents, made a stop at a Video Game/Movie Rental Place

    Bonk's Adventure NES COMPLETE!!! 29.95
    Game in Excellent Shape, With Black slipcase, stryofoam, box in good shape, fair shape instructions, Nintendo Power Card, Hudson Soft Warranty Card, NES Consumer Info Booklet

    Action 52 NES COMPLETE!!! 29.95
    With Slipcase, Cart in excellent shape, CHEETAHMAN COMIC BOOK!! in great shape, instructions in fair shape, pink action 52 sheet listing the games

    This hardly pales in conparison, but I also got a complete Trolls in Treasure Island as well for 9.95

    Now, here is the thing, if Bonk and Action 52 were cart only, I would have no problems keeping them, but this might be too good to keep them, I could sell them on Ebay, make a lot more than I paid for them, and then eventually just buy a cart only(I only go for cart only collections, boxes I could really care less about, and instructions I figure I can get off the net)

    What would you guys do?

    By all means, turn me into a child star.... Perhaps I can move to Californ-i-ay and wrangle me a three-way with the Olsen twins

    If it were me, I wouldnt sell. Well thats because I cannot sell anything. I am pure packrat. I try and sell something then convince myself that I might need it or would really want it later on.....so my two bits are just keep em.
    I like Nintendo's, They are Super.

    I'd keep them because this may be your only find like this. Congrats though!

    nice find. not the find of the year, but nice find. if you're not really into nes then i'd sell 'em. if you plan on collecting for nes then you should hang on to 'em since you're gonna want to get them again in the future anyway. congrats!

    Easy. If I was poor and needed money I'd sell. Otherwise I wouldn't

    I'd hang on to them. Like someone else said, you may never run into those games complete again. At least, not for the price you got them for anyway.
    3,582 games and counting! Pics of tons of stuff!

    Complete bonk.. that's a hell of a find, I'd hold on to it, After getting scammed and losing my sealed Bonk for a re-shrinked Dragon warrior 4, I was extremely happy to find a complete copy just about a week ago, congrats
