Let me know what you think, thanks. We held a game's draft where we actually drafted what we wanted. I have no use for the Yobo nintendo as I have 2 NES's and I wasn't even sure how valuable they are (I saw them on Amazon for $15). I know the SNES is a bit better than the other 2 consoles but I wanted an N64. I think we both did good overall but do you think I did good? Who got the better value? Thanks!
 
I'd say you did. Your NES games are better (overall), those NES knock-offs are terrible and Turtles in Time is better than his SNES games.

To me, the SNES console was his best pickup.
 
Thanks Rig. His SNES Console was his first pick. I had gone into it writing down values so I was mainly going after good games that i could possibly resell. I didn't go after the Nintendo console since I didn't think it was worth very much and chose to go after the games. Do you think we both did good overall with only spending $75 together on the whole lot?
 
IMO its about even game wise but id say your friend has you beat factoring in the system.

Specially if you plan to resell.
 
You forgot to factor in the gas it will take to drive an hour and a half away, which should be substantial and cut into the deal factor...

that said, if you are happy with your pick ups, good for you
 
Yes that is true. He would be spending the money on the gas. Do you think its a good deal for $38 for both of us?

lol damn reno, print the list out, look up complete recent Ebay listings for the games .... add it up .... and the answer will be right in front of you in less than an hour....

that's a hefty list and you have been repeatedly guided to just look them up...

the info you will gain will be priceless going forward ...
it will be a great use of about 30 minutes...

hell, brag and report back here your findings...
 
Lol donut, I actually did this time :p Which is why I said I printed out the values on the games and drafted accordingly lol. I just wanted to know how u guys think I did vs him bc he was bitching that I got more than him when I think he kind of got more bc of the top loader. Thanks tho donut for replying :p What u think, how we do?

uiengineer- ok great, thank s;P

YOU tell us.;).. as you did the homework and have up to date info/research... it's not rocket science, trust your research!
 
Okay good idea. I like that :p I'm still new to this whole thing so scared I'm going to get ripped off.
Well Turtles in Time by itself says on vgc that it is $28
Mario Kart is $18.00
So those two alone are basically getting my money back plus Donkey Kong 64 and Road Rash are listed at $13 each. Donkey Kong for NES is listed at $20. So these games alone make me above the profit margin. Plus I'mg etting the N64 and other Nintendo greats like TMNT 1, 2 and the Castlevanias, etc.
My co-buyer just kept saying how I was getting the better stuff when in reality he was getting more but mine seems to be worth more as a whole lol
 
Yeah it was pretty funny, we figured it was a fun way to split the stuff up. It worked out pretty good I think. We both came prepared with notes lol.
