Yet More Craigslist Stupidity!

[quote name='AugustAPC']http://jacksonville.craigslist.org/vgm/3370948399.html

Only $450 for a NES with some incredibly common games! Don't worry though, this seller has seen these systems go for over $500 with no games at all!

1ST GEN Nintendo Entertainment system. Collectors itm - $450 (yulee)

I have A first gen NES from 1985 in just about mint condtion. org it was the big pack, with 2 controllers and gun with maro and duckhunt . all cords power pak, 2 controllers the zap gun, and comes with 8 games, the orginal mario and duckhunt, Super mario 2 and super mario 3, DR mario, Ghosts & Goblins, snake rattle n roll, Solstice quest for demnos, & deadly towers are the games that come with it.

With duck hunt,, with this old tec, gun wont work with a LCD TV for duck hunt so I have a 21in normal TV to go with it

Grate for bringing back memorys or to get you kids in to the gameing age the right way =)..
I have seen these systems go for 500$ on e-bay with no games at all.
It's a clean system and works,, but of corse every now and then you got to give it the old school blow out =)
450$ OBO First come first serve.
if insterested call or text for more info, "Buddy" xxx-xxx-xxxx

I don't see the problem... $450 is a "grate" price!

and btw I am so tired of people saying "it works" as if that justifies the price or that its a selling point. Its like they are implying that if it didn't work then people would still want it, just for $200 instead of $450. IF IT DIDN'T WORK WHY WOULD YOU EVEN SELL IT?! I think I'm gonna open a restaurant and sell cheeseburgers for $500 and advertise them as "still edible!"

Well, in their defense, they technically are multiple games.

so that guy is trying to sell a preorder to a game that isn't out yet for more than what he is paying for it. :whistle2:# that's... really fucking dumb

[quote name='Monoxide1986']I'm pretty sure this guy is taking these games from the Redbox kiosk's and reselling them....

Every game he has listed is in Redbox, and the Disc 1 only copies are a pretty good indicator as well...

This kind of crap pisses me off...[/QUOTE]

my first thought was "yea, that looks like whats going on here" my second thought was "this guy is dumb cause his credit card is going end up paying for these" was interupted by "oh, the poor slob who had their credit card stolen is gonna have to deal with this mess"

people are such assholes. yea I want to buy a copy of AC3 for xbox with only 1 disc!:drool:

[quote name='therealdanhill']hey, another worcesterite. hope you aren't one of the people who keep getting my posts looking for gaming stuff deleted lol.[/QUOTE]

No I don't report any unless bootleg stuff. Which posts are yours? I wanna find the person asking for Harvest Moon 64 and all the other pricey N64 games. They've been posting them for months and I keep responding saying I have most of what they want then they don't respond.

He's trying to rip people off. I sent him an email saying I had most of the games he was asking for (most of which are worth like 50 a piece), but I said I didn't know if they were worth anything and that they were my sons. He told me they weren't worth anything and offered me like 2 or 3 bucks a game. I knew what his game was when I pricecharted the games he keeps looking for lol.

I have a running ad looking for all types of old-school games, that points out the resellers on CL and saying I will give a better deal because I'm a collector, and saying that I can't travel to Boston or anything because I'm disabled. I've done a crap-ton of deals on CL. I even sold a game to a fellow CAG once, don't remember what he said his username was but he was a good dude.

There's actually a guy right now asking 110 for a "restored" SNES. Why anyone would buy that instead of getting one from like That's Entertainment for 40 bucks is beyond me. I've been trying to sell a Sega Genesis on there for months, I'm only asking 20 bucks with two controllers and all the hookups but I guess nobody wants it. There have been a TON of people flaking lately as well, like at least 3 a week for me.

A genesis needs to be clean with a couple of cheap games to go with it; there's a lot of dusty doorstops being pulled out of attics, so any potential buyers are going to hold out for a more appealing starter bundle.

It works perfectly and comes with all the cables, and two controllers, and a Sonic game. I think 20 or 25 is fair, I don't think it's necessarily the price. The local vintage gaming/comic shop charges like 45 for one with no games and one controller, and they don't even do returns on hardware lol.

I did have an offer for ten bucks, but I mean I ain't gonna do that. For that amount I'd rather just hold on to it, you know? It'll sell eventually, just surprised it's taking so long.

Another thing is that people might not be willing to drive out for just Sega stuff; I once fetched $25 on a Sega Game Gear bundle, but only because I piggybacked it onto a Turbographx-16 deal in progress. And Gennies are even tougher since they often bomb out at auction for $10 shipped on ebay; I was actually surprised to see one sell at a local yardsale with a couple of games for $15.

Is it a "high resolution graphics" model? With that print around the cart slot mound? (For lack of a better word, lol)

The American Nintendo merchandise art from the late 80s early 90s is horrifyingly bad. We are super lucky Nintendo of America never used shitty art like this for the actual games or box art.
 
[quote name='Alkalinejoe']Judging from the one below it, it's probably a typo and they meant it is a Wii game.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, but I did a double take when i read it. I normally proof read something before posting it, I figured that was expected.
 
It can be hard to proofread your own stuff sometimes because you already know what it's supposed to say, so you might gloss right over something like that. At least I know it happens to me a lot. Of course, I doubt the guy actually bothered...was just sayin'.

But they're asking $1000. The highest one of these has sold in the last year was like $40 shipped on nintendoage. One even sold on eBay for like $2 back in February.

Dan, If you ever want to trade older games let me know. I sometimes go to the Worcester area for work. It's nice to see a fellow CAG relatively close by.

Trust me, in this area, that guy would have a 3DS in less than a day. I don't condone the use of it, but that stuff has to be worth at least $500. "Meds" is basically code, by the way.
