  • Nice! A 5-screw for $5!
  • Looks like its in great shape also. Good score
  • $5 is a good price for a 5screw zelda? I'm just curious, either way I'd be happy buying zelda for $5. I just know how much screw type values on that with one vs the other.
  • The ones that are that old are often worn through to the black plastic. That one looks pretty nice!
  • Nice, you paid a dollar a screw.

  • Oh, that's really neat. I honestly didn't even know that game came in 5-screw form.
  • ive seen a couple of them. but most i see are the 3 screw version. mine is an early one due to the back label is black instead of red..then later it was changed to red..i believe.
  • Oh man another guy in Fort Worth. You get that from the Hulen Store?

  • Nice find man! Reminds me of the time I got a gold Zelda from PnT for $2.99. They put the pricetag for pinball on there in accident, lol.
  • So what is that 5screw zelda worth when most/all the gold paint is still intact? I'm just curious as I have one from the day it came out in pretty nice shape still (not selling, just wanted to know.)
  • no its the one in Hurst. on pipeline..its the only one thats close to me.
  • good question? i think ill post on the price check.

    It's really not anything too special, but variation collectors dig it.  A round-seal CIB one in minty shape could probably fetch a few extra bucks I suppose.

    I've sold a lot of the 5-screw/3-screw Zeldas on here before to a variation guy, so I know there are people who try to have both.  I'm usually a sucker for the older version of something but my minty box is an oval seal, so I stuck with the 3-screw for my personal collection.
  • although 3 screw, I got both gold, and grey Zeldas for 50 cents apiece....at the same time! I spent more cash on my soda at that flea market, than my games that day. I think it used all my "lucky points" cause I haven't really found a awesome deal, since... The Triforce Curse....and now you got it!
  • See that's what I was curious about, thanks 8bit. I know how it is with variants. I had that so called "9/10" rarity Volleyball and I ended up selling it to bella as she needed it. I think it was like worth 2-3x over the standard one.
