There's no picture

If you highlight, copy and paste the entire link it'll take you to a pic of a bunch of nes games.  About 23 with more then half boxed.  I'm not an NES expert or anything but nothing in the box really struck me as anything super special but I don't know how much value the boxes add to the price.

Did that before posting that there where no picture and it didn't show anything :'(

I think is a good deal just with the CIB games, but you can check prices here if you want to make a descition

You asked, right? Wouldn't take the seller more than a minute to write down a list of games.

That's a good deal if the N64 comes with all the wires needed (even without a controller). Did it turn out to be a N64 in a SNES box? Or was there a SNES? I'm confused.

I think is good, when i check the price of the CIB games Platoon $27 each one, Mission imposible 37 each one and Base loaded depend on witch one are on the box can go from $20 to $45 (can't see witch base loaded are on the box), so you have with those games your 120 dollars

2 Platoons for 27= 54
2 Mission imposible for 37 = 74

So you have $128 with just 4 CIB games (if they are really Complete)
Those are the price on the page that i posted

Where do you get your prices from? Kirby's Dreamland? ;D In this box I see nothing worth more than 10-15USD. Still considering there are 23 games it is a pretty okay deal. The big problem is that there are some duplicates and those are worthless sports games (3 x Bases Loaded).

The games I see are ->
3 x Bases Loaded
2 x Platoon
Snake Rattle N Roll
2 x Mission Impossible
Championship Bowling
Sky Shark
Captain Skyhawk
Bump N Jump
Rescue: The Embassy Mission
The blue boxed game could be Rescue Rangers which could also be worth a bit more. If it's the second part jackpot. Highly unlikely though.
Contra cart? - That could be worth a little bit more
Some of those blue or violet carts could be capcom games which also would be good.

Still all considered I would pass on this or try to haggle him down to at least 70-80.
2 + 3 = 23

Remeber that i manage only internet prices, i am force to buy from internet because here in the Dominican Republic Craiglist doesn't put add of video games and when someone is selling something the prices are always higger than internet. And Flea market here doesn't sell video games

For example qhen i bought my Wii on ebay i pay $120 (Wii console, 2 controllers, 2 nunchuck, 2 Wii wheels, 5 games, Wii tablet for wii fit and some other things), here in the Dominican Republic people was selling used Wii for $250+ just the console and one or two controller. My only freedom is a local gameshop that has Retro games very cheep :D but new ones are a bit high :(.

As i metion before i will love to have some day your experience (some of you guys) buying in flea market, Craiglist  a lot of games for low prices or games that are high price on internet and you managed to buy it cheep.

Just realise that i'm not the person to give advice on game prices :P

I put an extra snes system in the box and put it on the shelf with my other system boxes. I think I'm going to keep it. I have a couple duplicates of snes manuals and paperwork that I can share if you need some.

I just got hit with a wave of nostalgia. That's the exact same box I got my SNES in. I remember because I got two carts, All-Stars and World. I remember that sticker and everything.

It was because I got them separate like this that I was always confused when people talked about an All-Star and World single cart.

Thanks for that.
