What's the best way to price old video games?
« on: July 22, 2019, 10:44:00 PM »
I'm thumbing through about twenty SNES games I have and I'm just checking Amazon and OfferUp listings. Do I just... look at what everyone else is selling it at? Or is there a Kelly Blue Book for this shit?

Post list

eBay is a better resource for pricing games -> completed/sold listings

seems about right to me, except all-stars. definitely not a $35 game

those numbers seem like the high-end of the scale, i'd go down a few bucks realistically

I'd assume searching Ebay for sold listings is the way to ballpark a price. It's how Ive been flipping my stuff as PAL shit is hard to price otherwise

this is what I came up with based on Amazon listings for "good" and "very good"

Bugs Bunny Rabbit Rampage - 6
Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego? - 20
Super Mario All-Stars - 35
Donkey Kong Country - 20
Super Mario Kart - 20
Pac-Man 2: The New Adventures - 3
Jurassic Park - 10
Top Gear - 10
Porky Pig's Haunted Holiday - 8
NHL '94 - 6
Super Godzilla - 17

Congrats for owning a small collection of video game trash.  :doge

Next thing you know you‘ll buy a CD-I and pay 70 bucks for a copy of Hotel Mario. :itagaki

Do you have the boxes and booklets? 

Also some items like a bugs bunny game might not be of much value to game collectors but could be to Warner Bros. fans.
Same goes for Disney stuff.
