Let me get this straight? You priced all of that for $100 dollars? Let me point you to the Craigslist thread or the thrift shop thread because of the people inquiring about your lot are probably the same people in that thread who resell the stuff.

You can get between $200-$300 on just the consoles, assuming everything is complete. You can ask for $50 just for Mario Kart 64 and Mario 64.

If you just want to dump everything quickly hold firm on $250-$300, if not do a little research, and put each console in their own  lot. With a lot that big your going to get mass emails on people interested in their own beneficial interest.

I don't blame you, you just have to deal with a totally different hassle. If you have the time to piece the lots out individually go for it, you'll get a lot more in the end. You can easily get $30-$40 a SNES system, $80-$100 for the N64, Gamecube depending what games and how many $20-$40 dollars maybe more depending on the games. I don't know about the PS2, xbox, or PS mini but you figure at least $25 a system.

yes, you priced it "too" cheap, but you did price it to sell quickly.... sometimes that's the goal....

and yes, you should take down the "ad"

Came for the grammar correction. Stayed for the genius.

You priced it lower, but honestly 99% of craigslist are cheap collectors and resellers. Resellers are going to look to piece it out on eBay and collector's will do the same thing while trying to keep what they need. I'd pretty much go with ask for $250 and get $200. You might luck out and someone pays more, but almost nobody in the video game section of c-list is going to pay even 1/2 of what it costs on ebay.

That's generally my consensus on craigslist for video games, if you want to get rid of it fast and cheap, then it's a good place to post. If you want to get close to its real value, it's the worst place to start.

The shipping is not the worst part about eBay (many consoles will fit inside standard fixed rated USPS boxes), it's dealing with the (potential) buyer aftermath in the form of SNADs and other unwarranted cases, which is avoided when you sell on craigslist. Even then the problems encountered on eBay are minimal from my experience.
