Craigslist deal I'm contemplating

Post by PGchris »

This guy is selling all these games for $60 the only problem is that they are all disc only, I'm thinking about buying them all then selling everything but the TOD games on ebay. You guys think I could make all or most of my money back even though they disc only?

Final Fantasy VII -ps1
Final Fantasy VIII- ps1
Final Fantasy IX- ps1
Final Fantasy X (PS2)
Chrono Trigger - ps1
Chrono Cross - ps1
Tales of Destiny 1- ps1
Tales of Destiny 2- ps1
Dragon Quest VIII- ps2

PS: He won't sell seperately :(

Have you checked the completed listings on Ebay? Look at the range for disc only and then tally it up. I suggest using the lowest part of the range as your worst case deal and see if you're able to turn a profit.

Yeah, I would do same just to see if you can make a profit and would also use VGPC as well to help with prices in addition to ebay completed listings.

The Final Fantasy VII black label disks are white and the greatest hits are kinda like a metal shiny front.

Prolly gonna end up doing this, If I come up way short on selling all those other games I guess Ill sell one of the Tales of Destiny games and keep the other, pretty good deal I'd say it's kind of like getting Tales of Destiny 1 and 2 for free if all goes as planned.

All the FF's in a bundle should take care of the money you spent on it all.

I figured I'd bump an old topic rather than create a new one. I'm contemplating this deal and would like your input. I checked craiglist today and found this listed under the topic "Must see psp console."
