chriswhit Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 If the rarity is the same like say a 2600 r3 and a 7800 r3? Just wondering because most r3's for 7800 seem to be 30 to 75 plus shipping granted there sealed but that's not that rare. Example Midnight mutants is 75 plus shipping is this high for sealed?

+save2600 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 (edited) From my very short time (couple months) and reintroduction to the 7800, I had absolutely no trouble obtaining most ALL of the games for $10 or less. Mostly $2-$8 to be honest. With a few notable exceptions: Fatal Run (which I have CIB for sale for $40 and nobody is buying, there's your $80 game ) Alien Brigade Ikari Warriors Water Ski Basketbrawl Commando Xenophobe Rampage Kung-Fu Master Double Dragon ...most of these ran $15-$30ea. and well worth it from a gamers point of view (sans Double Dragon). Gave away my copies of Summer & Winter Games, Super Huey & Ace of Aces as those were ones I would have never played.

+save2600 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 All I can say is try to do your shopping here first. Maybe put out a wanted ad in the Marketplace and see what happens. Prices and sellers are a lot more reasonable here than ePay... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nonner242 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I paid too much for almost all my hard to get games....very few exceptions. Commons in good shape were somewhat harder than I thought too. Lots of crushed and worn stuff...And I dont care anymore.. I found tons of loose games tho, but prices on the rarer title varied greatly again. Screw the sealed games, I wanna play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I was able to make a complete set of NTSC 7800 games in less than a month without overpaying on a single title. R2 or less no more than $1 each, uncommons up to the R4 or R5 range no more than $10 to $20 each and I got a mint tank command for $100 even. Ballpark would be about $300ish for the the whole set and I ended up with half the boxes & manuals also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underball Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 There are some users who are in it for the games , and some who are in it for the money. Some even who talk about finding r3 and r4 games for $10, yet who gouge the people here and sell the same games back to you for $30 or $40. Just be smart about buying and don't get anxious or trigger happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 I personally think eventually "the big meltdown" Oshea's is doing will change the price of some sealed commons in the future. How soon or if it actually will effect the price of said sealed commons only time will tell. Will we ever see the day when Hat Trick,ect. become $10+ NIB? I doubt it.

I wish I got deals like you guys here, my collection has cost ALOT more, even getting most of the rarer titles from members here. Oh well, dont have to worry about getting anymore tho its finished...and feels good. No matter how much was spent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jahfish Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 i'm just missing one loose tank command to complete my collection .... does anyone know how much a boxed highscore cartridge is worth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcprs1 Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 i'm just missing one loose tank command to complete my collection .... does anyone know how much a boxed highscore cartridge is worth? Good luck. It took my forever to get a Tank Command. I still haven't been able to get a box for it. I also still can't get the box for Title Match Pro Wrestling. One good thing though is that 7800 games are easier and cheaper to find than when I first started collecting them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
