Went a little overboard - advice on downsizing?

[shateredsoul]

Hi Everyone,

I went a little overboard with retrogaming in the past few months, and realized I want to scale down. I've decided to keep the nes, snes, ps1, and genesis for nostalgia and current gen systems (wii, xbox 360 and ps3). Any advice on how to get a good price on the following? I'm not asking for someone to price them for me, but I would love to hear what similar system lots have gone for in your experience? I don't have the patience or time to sell each item separately. I'd appreciate any advice on how to price each as a lot. I thought maybe I could look up the going rate for each item, take 2 bucks off each item, then add that up.



Here we have a bunch of USA and Japanese Dreamcast stuff. I'll just do lists

I'd sell the 64 lot and the PS2. Everything else is CIB. Keep the Saturn and DC stuff.

So you don't think there's worth trying to sell those? or you just think they're worth keeping?

I'll buy the white Saturn from you if it has an easily modded board. My white Saturn unfortunately has a Sanyo board.

Worth keeping for sure. If you're strapped for cash, that's another thing.

I'm okay on cash right now, but I've definitely decided to just stick with nes, snes, genesis, and ps1. Keep in mind that I have all current gen consoles as well. Too much stuff, so I decided to just focus on a few systems that mean the most, minimize my stack of stuff, and increase my funds for new stuff and projects.

I was thinking of selling them and building a nice HTPC that can handle emulation up to the dreamcast.

@Zen, how do I check what board it is? and, I think I'd rather sell as a bundle. I don't have the patience or time to sell each item one by one.. even if that would get me the most $$ I think it can be modded, I thought all round button saturns could be modded?

[shateredsoul]

Out of curiosity is asking for $300 for the Saturn bundle crazy?

What about $400-$500 for the dreamcast stuff? Each dreamcast cost me about $80 after the mod.

Was thinking around $100 for n64 stuff (probably less)

and $25 for the ps2

Are those prices crazy? sound about right? If it's way less than I paid, then maybe I am better of just keeping them.

I am just curious to what the saturn vga cable is.

[Lodestar]

Keep that PS2, it's a good model and you can always mod it to load games off an HD.

[shateredsoul]

I am just curious to what the saturn vga cable is.

If you look at the dreamcast pic, near the bottom left is a box that says blaze. It allows you to connect the dreamcast to a vga monitor. The games look much better on a vga monitor, with cleaner and sharper graphics.

I have a backwards compatible ps3, and a bunch of ps2 games, so I'd rather not keep the ps2.
