    Default Was this a good deal? (NES purchase)

    Well, here was my first purchase as I plunge into NES collecting. I was going to go for a top-loader, but the entertainment system spot where it will go has a low shelf and I would have had to slide the system out onto the floor to put a cartridge in it. I'll get a top loader at some point down the road. Anyway, here's the auction I won to get started, I liked this package because it had the new 72-pin and also because I wanted a good joystick and a few of you guys recommended the Advantage... I thought it was a pretty good deal for 60 bucks, hopefully you won't say I got rooked.

    I also got Final Fantasy, I spent $21.50 on that, but only because it was boxed with instructions, world map, and dungeon map. I thought that was a good deal for a complete FF. Was I right?

    Don't flame, I'll be hunting in the wild more later, but for now I just wanted to be lazy and get started the easy way.

    Well, you are getting Life Force, Jackal and Double Dragon 2, which is always a plus.

    Seems to be a pretty good deal... I know a lot of places that would charge twice that for the same amount of stuff.

    Yeah, that isn't to bad for 60 bucks. You got alot of accessories which aren't worth much but come in useful, and you also got a boxed Bomberman that is worth $10-15 by itself.

    Also, $21.50 for a complete FF is a great deal. I would buy them all day at that price.
