Hey all,

What do you think would be a fair price for the following, all gently used:

1 Nintendo Wii
2 Wiimotes
1 Wii Sports
1 Smash Bros Brawl
1 Mario Galaxy
1 Mario Strikers Charged
2 Classic Controllers
2 Nunchucks
5 Controller sleeves
1 Component Cable
1 S-Video Cable
1 Composite Cable
1 1 Gig SD card for saves
1 Wii zapper

The following games are downloaded on the Wii from the Wii store:
Super Street Fighter 2
Streets of Rage 2
Gunstar Heroes
Castlevania 4
Super Ghosts & Goblins
Super Metroid
Shining Force

I've had it up on Craigslist for a couple weeks with no serious bites, so I thought I'd go to some other experts for an outside opinion.
 
I'd probably put it on eBay. You can make more money that way. If you spilt the games up, you probably could make even more if you were to just put them on Amazon or Half.com.
 
Alas, Wiis are plentiful now.

My 2 cents since you asked.

List it a couple more days on CL (Ebay fees are about to go up again...)

List it separately priced, with a bundle price/deal

1 Nintendo Wii (do you have the original packaging, still under warranty?, adult owned and played?)
$240 w/one of each controller (mote/nun)
2 Wiimotes $30/1
1 Wii Sports include with console
1 Smash Bros Brawl $25
1 Mario Galaxy $25
1 Mario Strikers Charged $25
2 Classic Controllers $20/both
2 Nunchucks $15/1
5 Controller sleeves include with console
1 Component Cable offer
1 S-Video Cable offer
1 Composite Cable offer but include "cable of choice" with console
1 1 Gig SD card for saves $10
1 Wii zapper $10

The following games are downloaded on the Wii from the Wii store: include with console
Super Street Fighter 2
Streets of Rage 2
Gunstar Heroes
Castlevania 4
Super Ghosts & Goblins
Super Metroid
Shining Force

Separately priced at $400 + for additional cables
Retail Value - $XXX

First $350 cash

(With CL - no shipping, packing, fees, charge back exposure, feedback whim....)


Restructure your add and include all the current retail prices for the ignorant. Post your new composed ad here for editing...and use all the pics your allowed...

Good Luck!
 
Either way you're going to get screwed by craigslist, ebay, or gamestop. Money is tight for some right thats why you haven't been able to sell your stuff.

The retail price for the Wii stuff is $590 plus tax; bought as a bundle, I’d let it go for $375 cash. The Gamecube stuff I’d be willing to let go in a bundle for $75.

Looks much better, a few ideas ...
1) get this posted early tomorrow a.m.
2) get rid of the gap in your wii bundle (it's a lil confusing)
3) Do you have the wii packaging? show in picture you take
4) note how much you paid for the downloaded games
5) I would make two ads (wii & gamecube) but mention the gamecube listing in the wii listing
