An outdated price point on a rare item that never changes hands is almost meaningless. It's good data to know, but will likely have little bearing on the outcome of a new sale.

I've noticed that NWC Grays have gone from $4k to $6k to probably $8k-$10k right now, if you get a nice conditioned copy. Obviously torn labels / worn copies would go less.

With the prices on almost anything "rare" for NES literally doubling or tripling within the past year or two, the NWC Gold is likely due for a jump.

But, this is all just my opinion. No, I do not have any sales data to reveal, and I'm sure buyers / sellers of these items want to keep it private for this exact reason. If word got out that someone paid $27k or whatever, then everyone instantly refers to it as worth $27k. If that $27k sale happens but is kept quiet, everyone continues to refer to it as worth $17k. See how it works?
