    Default Good buy or bad thinking on my part ?

    Tell me what you think ? I am guessing the shipping will be about 35.

    I'm not sure if you're the buyer or the seller but if you're the seller I hope you don't mind letting go of this stuff. I would imagine you could have gotten more without the BIN.

    That switch with 5 inputs costs $40 new at wal-mart. The SNES with the joystick you can sell on Amazon for $50 easy. I don't know about the rest of the stuff.

    2 things I should add. I just noticed in the text that if the BIN is used he will go half on shipping And of course I have been looking to buy a "mini" snes for a while now, I just couldnt see paying 50 for just the snes mini
    I thought at the time I made out pretty good on this find, but had some buyer remorse because I have alot of the other stuff. Oh well I guess it never hurts to have trade bait and extra gaming stuff around

    I was thinking the joystick was for the SNES. I have sold several regular SNES (grey) with the joystick on Amazon for 54.99 or 57.99. You would not get that much for it on ebay.

    @Savedman: Dude, I couldn't stop laughing. I would have done the exact same thing!

    @charitycasegreg: The NES is pretty damn cool, but ladies who will play NES, with you, or any oldschool console for that matter, are better.

    Yes: Girl sees my SNES for the first time. She says it's cool and excitedly asks if she can play it.
    No: Girl sees my SNES for the first time. Asks me "Why the hell do you still have one of those things?" She then tells me I can buy more PS2 stuff if I sell all my old stuff.

    @captain nintendo: nice buy dude! Enjoy all that cool stuff!

    Hopefully if I ever get a really hot girfriend that has so much in common with me and stuff likes nintendo.
    Bad senerio- Me-wanna see my room?
    her-sure
    then she walks in, looks around and my games and bolts out, never to see me again

    Bad senerio-chick comes over and see my collection and grabs my sealed games and open them and goes "lets play!"

    Bad senerio-chick thinks my games are cool but sucks so badly at SMB1

    Good senerio- hot chick likes me as a friend, she sees my game collection and is turned on and really likes me

    good senerio-hot chick also collects classic games

    best senerio- Really hot chick who has a bro who collects games and she takes them all and gives them to me, we play them all the time, and she is good at skateboarding
