Bonk's Adventure CI

Ok, what is Bonk's worth as cart and manual. Manual is decent, cart is nice.

Now what is the manual worth.

Now what is the cart worth.

The reason why is because getting just the box is a real pain in the butt obviously and I like CIB. Dangevin has this boxed copy http://cgi.ebay.ca/Bonks-Adventure-Nintendo-boxed-NES-game-box-adventures_W0QQitemZ350139856737QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Vintage_Video_Games?hash=item5185f63761&_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116

Would it be worth it to sell the cart and put the manual with that boxed copy? Or keep looking for a box?

Another possibility for me is to sell the manual and just keep this one as a loose cart for me since it's not a really special one to me.

What ya think?

    ^ Actually that's one of FOUR boxed copies I have, only one with the booklet. Another member here generously sent me an ex-rental manual that I'm about to list in a CIB, but I'd say for this game the book is more scarce than the box.



    I think since this was SO late in the cycle, that it may as well have been rental-only, it seems those account for most of the copies floating around!



    Whether that translates to real value depends on condition. The cart is worth current guide value (about $60), and booklets are usually 50% for mint, so you might command as much as $30, maybe even a bit more since it's so scarce if you find the right collector looking for collection-grade.



    If you'd like to CIB we can certainly work something out for one of my boxes, I'm never sad to part C/B's out since the carts always sell quickly.

    I'm confused man. You put bin $147 and said game = $60 manual = $30 box= less than $30 that = less than $120. I ask because I have cart and would like to make mine complete.

    eBay store prices are pretty much akin to full retail.

    Agreed

    Also someone else isn't taking 12-15% out of our pockets here image

    Ok are you interested in trading? I just posted pics of a bunch of stuff I have fs/ft in the b/s/t/ forum.

    I was gonna buy Dan's box that he kindly offered for a good friend price image



    But it looks like it's going to a friend I trade with in town. It's kinda up in the air still and someone has asked for the manual. So that is still an option to just go with the loose cart.



    It'll go into the BST "IF" I don't take Dan's box and decide to part it out.
