My Latest Purchase...

Post by Cassidy »

Paid $99. Am I stupid for paying that much or is it worth it?

Erm, not a terrible find... boxed and all. Probably could have done better with the price though.

99$?? that seems like it should be around $70 at most, at least its boxed and in good condition, no yellowing. Id say its ok to pay almost $100 for that

Really, $70 for all that? A boxed SNES and Boxed Mario Paint isn't worth that much? An unboxed SNES alone goes for $30-50 on eBay.

A SNES and Mario Paint, both boxed, is in my opinion worth a bit more than that. I think it was a very nice find.

Really it depends what parts you come from, I'd never see one around here but like loose Snes's are like 8$ easy. Looks nice and it's a great system though so I wouldn't fret.

if you like rpg's then it was worth it. i personally think the snes is still the best system ever.

Thing is I had an SNES with a huge library of titles, but in a moment of weakness I gave it away to a family friend a few years back and I've regretted it since.

The kids fucking trashed it. :x

Lately I've been thinking about playing LttP the way it was meant to be played, on the SNES, some SFII and, oddly enough, the Batman animated series game.

I've been searching for an SNES with all of the original packaging and allegedly this one was used a handful of times before being packed away.

I can't wait to get it and play me some Mario World.

Yeah, I would agree but being complete is still awesome nonetheless... 8)
