I like Ninja Turtles, too. In fact, it got my summer off to a good start when I found TMNT II for the NES at a yard sale for a buck.

And we're back.

So far it's looking like a fail on the yard sale front. I do have the chance to go look on Friday this week, so hope to find something.

So heres the lot, I got everything here for $21, except dungeon master and golden eye which I got $2 each at separate sales.

All complete with box and manuals.


Gamegenie complete with box and manual, super mario all stars manual only. Carts are super mario rpg legend of seven stars, super mario world, supre star wars, and dungeon master.


Games are complete with box and manual. Asciipad is missing manual.


Individual GB game is tiny toons, kirby is complete with box and manual. ren and stimpy and super mario land are box only, no games. Super mario land 2 golden coins was box and manual only, but I had the game, so have the complete set now.



So all snes games are complete except for the asciipad with no manual. Went to an individual sale that advertised video games, was there 30 min early.
Didn't see them out so asked, they brough out a big tub full of these games, 2 CiB original gameboys with box / manuals, and a dreamcast with 2 controllers, no hookups. They wanted 15 for each gameboy, so didn't get them. Dreamcast I didn't want incomplete.
Offered $15 initially for the game lot and they accepted, but then another family member jumped in and said at least $1 each for $21 so I happily accepted that offer.

Edit: With the value of these games, and two weeks in a row of finding good snes games. I need to buy myself a console to test these games out. I've never seen a snes in the wild, what is my best bet? One of those FC twin turbo systems?
I've had this posted on Craigslist for awhile in a large SNES bundle. Everything in the pics except for the gameboy, n64 stuff.

Mostly resellers offering me $100 and laughing at me when I tell them I know they are worth a lot more than that. But got an offer today that I accepted.

A collector offered $200, I figured if hes the type of person to spend $200 on some boxed games, he would probably be a yardsailer and have a spare SNES lying around. Sure enough he had one, with all hookups and 2 controllers.

So $200 + the snes for those games. I am happy with that.. do you think I did alright?

^ I don't know how you were able to squeeze out $200 and SNES out of that.

Eh, the Mario RPG cart and Turtles in Time alone are worth ~$100. There's over $200 value there for sure but he did luck out getting full value in a lot rather than having to get rid of each thing individually.

Yeah, 40 for mario RPG, 50 for turtles in time. 35 game genie, 25 mario kart, 25 donkey kong country, 40 asciipad. Thats 215 right there not counting the other games. I don't think he is getting a bad deal at all personally.

Well, this lot I bought for $20, plus it came with a few other games like Link to the Past, Mario World, etc... Already sold the other games, so that's why they aren't pictured. But still, I think the two items I have left make a good picture.



Are boxed NES' worth anthing?

A high value game like that I wouldn't bother with ebay, I'd just sell it on one of the forums.

^^^ Nice job on the Earthbound and boxed NES.

It has been raining here the past few days. Despite that I had some luck.

The games in the back are Rugrats and Double Dragon. Also pictures is a Animal Crossing mem card and Pacman for the GBA

N64 has expansion. Got everything above for $20.

At other sales I got this stuff.

DKC w/manual, Zelda LA DX, Pocket Bomberman, Power Quest, and Dragon Warrior Monster's 2: Tara's Adv. All for $13




$1 for everything. Pretty pumped for LoZ:OoS choose your own adventure book. At the same sale another person saw I was buying books and asked if I wanted a bag of books for free. They were in the back of her trunk. It felt like an arms deal was going down. lol
