I figure he must be either really skinny and malnourished or rather big due to spending all this time sitting at a computer on ebay to make all these great finds.
wonder what a sealed copy would go for on ebay these days. Hasn't been a well-advertised sealed one on ebay in four years... went for 610 back then. That same copy sold recently for a lot more than that (and rightly so) privately and recently. The other copy I know of is mine and was in a relatively poorly advertised ebay auction maybe 2-2.5 years ago. Sold for only $300, lol, to the high bidder. I had to pay 1k though to get it from the high bidder some time back.
any guesses?
I think 1k is MORE than a bargain for it at this point for a sealed one -- a near mint copy (your recent sale) went for almost $500; a sealed copy IMO would be worth around $1,500 at minimum, $2,000 max.
Actually this just reminded me of something, probably about 2 months ago, a friend pointed out a toploader with a BIN of something ridiculous like $15 (which he passed on for some reason!!) and of course I was at work when he sent the message, so it was long gone by the time I saw it. I can't remember who the user was that snagged it, but surprisingly it wasn't you!

I think $2000 would be a long shot but definitely $1500.....
I've never seen a sealed one for sell ever in my few years....here is what I have seen go down in the past 4 years:
Flintstones Surprise stuck on ebay in a store for $75 BIN for months - why did i not buy it
Stadium Events with Box NTSC sell for around $300ish
Stadium Events sealed NTSC sell for $3,500ish that was a STEAL
Bubble Bobble Part 2, Bubble Bobble, Rainbow Islands ALL COMPLETE IN SAME AUCTION $100 BIN - why did I not buy that
are you sure about the stadium events with box for $300 price? Doesn't seem right to me, I don't remember that one or any discussion about it.
The sealed SE was 3050 not 3500 (see avatar ). You won't hear me denying it was a steal. I do have buyatari to thank for not bidding me up on that one.
Yea Im sure we all have stuff that we wished we could go back and buy. I remember passing up that sealed caltron for $400 or $500. I really regret that one.
Yea its the same one. I was pretty sure I told you about it.
OK now I feel like an ass. You're right, of course. And I haven't forgotten nigel mansell either! btw, nice collection list you sent me, you're not giving yourself enough credit!

Congrats by the way.

Maybe you should put it on ebay and find out. Just set the reserve extremely high.
yeah but the reserve would be so high it wouldn't be a "real" auction anyways, because I don't want to sell

I might be interested in the manual if you break it up, but I want a better condition box of course.

I have about 20 more carts and a few random other things I still need to add. Like my spare Zelda II Hong Kong, a few boxes and manuals as well.
