Garage Sale Finds, Need Prices
Hey guys, I recently stumbled on a bunch of NES games at a yard sale. I asked the lady how much she wanted for them, and she told me $5 a piece. Since I bought so many, she gave me a deal, $50 off. I figured I made off with a good deal, but the thing is, I really don't know how much all this should go for if I were to sell it. Should I try to sell it in a lot, or sell it out NintendoAge seems like the place to go to in order to figure out these sorts of things, as I've never gotten into boxed stuff before. Someone also mentioned VGA, but I'm not so sure about that. I heard it was a scam.
I'm also really interested in how much the Trolls game goes for, since it still has a troll attached (you can see its pink hair in the pic).
Thoughts?

You have thousands of dollars worth of CIB there.

I agree, that is why I told him to do the research.
If you want to show off your "find", go to finders keepers...there is lots of room there.
If you want to brag about your collection, go to collectors corner, there is a thread specifically for showing off your collection.

Maybe you should do a little research online for these prices.

Thanks. I was a little worried about going by ebay prices, since I figured they're all unsold bins and that can't be a reliable price and all.

This can't be a garage sale find, you would have to be the luckiest person in the history of garage sale hunting to find a box full of all rare cib nes games without one common title.
I did get some commons, but I didn't get everything they had. I didn't pick up anything I owned (carts I had since I was a kid, though seeing these, I now regretting throwing away the boxes). I can obviously tell a common from an uncommon, but I'm by no means an expert. Here are some more I picked up that I had heard of before, although now that I look at them again, a couple in there I actually hadn't. I actually never played Ninja Gaiden 3 either, so I may end up keeping it instead of selling it. The first two were just awesome games.

Yeah...seems fishy.
Sorry, here are the boxes side by side.

I may not know a lot about NES, but I know enough that Trolls on Treasure Island did NOT come with a Toy attached to the box. That is an urban legend.
To bad somebody ruined your box by punching holes in it to attach a worthless toy.
O'well, at least the game is a blast to play.

You are incorrect, it actually did come with a troll attached.
