How much more is a game worth if the manual included?
So i have some GBA games i'd like to trade on racketboy. Most of the games have the manuals with them (not box). My question is how much would the value of my games be increased by with the manuals included?

I'd say the manuals add an extra dollar or two.

Manuals are hard to come by used, especially in cart medium such as those sold at Gamestop. A possible lucrative sellers market if one includes the manual. You might find a buyer interested in the extras, depending on the game.

Honestly, there is no real answer to your question. A game is worth as much as you can get someone to buy it for.
For a rough estimate for how much any particular game is worth, try this website to begin with and adjust your price as needed to find the right price that people will buy for:

I personally wouldn't pay much more for a game with a manual.

The best answer to this question is how much extra would you pay for a booklet, and go from there, if you end up being too high, no one will buy and you can adjust

They add a buck or two for the manuals / game cases / artwork insert. By selling separate from the game itself you'd get a bit more bang for the buck.

Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?
Re: How much more is a game worth if the manual included?
For games that didn't come with a case people would keep (NES, SNES, late Genesis) I'll easily play an extra $10 for a manual. For games in DVD or CD cases I'll only pay an extra buck or two, as I know it would be easily to find another item that IS selling it with the manual.
