Nintendo Famicom - How much...?

What is a good price to pay for a Nintendo Famicom? The one that i' looking at buying comes with the Disk System, roughly 40 disk system games, some wireless controllers and some other bits I'm not too sure about.

I've never really bought any Famicom hardware before, is it difficult to get working? I.e. does it seem to break down like the front loading NES? Anyway, main point is, is it worth buying?

    For that lot, I'd say you could expect to pay as much as $125+ for consoles-only and pirate disks, and $225+ for CIBs with licensed titles. It's always hard to judge, because of condition, etc. Famicoms usually work no problem. Disk Systems are a bitch. They're very sensitive. And if you're gonna try playing pirate disks, it ain't easy. The Disk System has to be a certain version, or using a Game Doctor attachment, and you've got to configure the drive perfectly. A bitch.
