If only I'd looked for it a few hours earlier today...

It does not come with a box or instructional booklet.

But still, $.50 ain't bad. Unless the shipping end up being $40.

Who cares? 50 cents for one of the top RPGs on the SNES is a great deal. Too bad shipping is up the ying yang (I put in my zip code and it came to $8.75). Still, not too bad....

She doesn't specify anywhere how much shipping is ... so it could be $40! Against eBay rules but an easy way to circumvent having to pay FVFs.
* EDIT: Super Mario 2 and Qbert or something like that still up for grabs from her ($.25) BIN

Fzero, Star Fox and Civilization and Olympic Games as well!
She used the calculator which is meant to be S&H. For me it was $6.95 for priority. Not terribly unreasonable. (Though with a BIN under $1 it does look a bit like fee avoidance. That's eBay's problem, not the buyers.)

The more I look at her auctions, it seems like some mother who is punishing her kid buy getting rid of the games, lol.

Sm2 Yoshi's Island is only .25. Some one'd better nab that!

Paypal required. Otherwise, I'd jump on Q-bert...

Darn, too bad I already have it. I bought it when I was 17 and paid out the butt for it at Funcoland. It's a really great game though, so I don't really regret buying it since it was sort of hard to find anyway.
Paper Mario for the N64 is very fun too. I paid $20 a couple of weeks ago when I bought it at an indie store. Good deal?

its funny how shipping on one snes cart was 7.55 and another was 6.55 and another one I checked came out to 5.55
all coming from the same place and going to the same place
shipping on mario rpg cost the most

Yeah, I think that's a pretty good deal. I was just price checking this one on eBay a few days ago (dug out my old N64) and I think cart only is going for $30-40 most of the time (a few lower). I'd have snapped it up at $20, too.

Keep an eye on EB... I snatched one up about a week before the b1g1 sale for $24.99 before coupons.
Mario RPG I mean.

Keep an eye on Paper Mario...I got it for $14.00 + $5.00 shipping on eBay a couple weeks ago. If you have good timing, you don't have to pay $30-40.
