10 CIB mint NES games + console + ppw
this showed up in my town on craigslist and I got to it first... I'm not saying how much I paid for it until at least 5 people guess what it's worth
Console / accessories:
1 NES console with two controllers, very good condition
1 NES advantage controller, still with foam over buttons
1 zapper
Paperwork (not pictured):
original reciept from 1990 for NES Action Set
control deck manual
zapper manual
NES warranty registration form
NES advantage manual in sleeve with Nintendo Power advert and small "Now you're playing with power!" poster
large "Now you're playing with power!" poster
trifold "plug into the power!" nintendo power advert
yellow "do not use with projection screens" warning
Teh games, all 10/10 CIB games except for marble madness:
Adventure Island II
Mega Man 5
Super Mario 3
Ms. Pac Man Tengen
Dr Mario
Thunder and Lightning
Marble Madness (two small punctures along one side of box, oh noes)
Tetris
Tetris II
all CIB games are not only complete with manuals but also with the original plastic bags and any promotional ads that came with it
these boxes are in pristine condition, not sealed but as close to it as you can get... even the cartridges and sleeves have that glossy, almost greasy look to them, knowwattameen?
I know several of these games pull $30 or more complete, but since these are in pristine condition, does that effect their worth at all? If so, which ones? I'm new to collecting and I was too scared to ask on the Price Check forum because everyone complains about noob price checkers. I did my research, but pricing and CIB condition on ebay is few and far between.
Any advice helps, thanks in advance.
Comments
as for pricing, just use ebay and search for the titles. Also click on 'completed listings' so that you get a price range.
(and if u don't get many - try amazon too)
Condition does help but if you can't get it to the person in great shape, its a beach' if the buyer is harsh on ya.
we have one guess at $30, any other guesses? 4 more to reveal
Adventure Island II
Mega Man 5
Super Mario 3
Ms. Pac Man Tengen
Dr Mario
Thunder and Lightning
Marble Madness (two small punctures along one side of box, oh noes)
Tetris

I would guess the lot could get you well over $100. If that Mega Man 5 is really mint it can pull nearly $100 on it's own.

Good find! And ^lolwut? Most can say what it's worth, but I'm going to be indifferent and guess how much you paid:
I paid $50 for everything problem is, I'm more of an enthusiast than a collector, so now that I'm understanding how much these are worth in their current condition, I guess I'm not playing any of them any time soon

You can still play mint CIBs, just be careful. Open the flaps with a butterknife and just try to open and close the box too much.

sorry I guess that was vague, I meant to say worth as in how much it went for on craigslist, ie how much I paid for it.
But if they are truly mint with absolutely no flaw, which is what mint is (zing), you can probably get s couple bucks extra.
