    I was gonna bid on it but i figured the price would go way to high but it surely didnt at ALL. Anyone have an idea why? his feedback looks decent? and you get some decent games in the auction?

    Well it's a nice lot although mostly all games are common, i think this is the main reason why it went for $107.One dollar a game is a good price if you ask me.

    Agreed. Plus you have to factor in $35 for shipping.

    well it does have some more harder to find games in it like swamp thing ansd the immortal. but i mean there are other regular nes systems with like 20 games with them and they are goin for 70 bucks? its weird?

    Wow. I am surprised at the high bid. I would have thought that would have gone for a lot more also. Nes prices on Ebay are outta control

    Wow, that was a great buy on that one! Even after you factor in the $35 for shipping, it is less than $1.50 a game.

    Hotdnag i mega love that game,it's far more superior then the NES version.NES version doesn't have any blood in it,it's not an easy game but the idea is awesome.

    Small world - I did bid on it. But it was a lowbid that was more of a tracking system...
