Earthbound....

[cookie monster]

i also think its funny when a game reachs crazy money the ppl on cl are looking for it to add to there collection but it is old so they can't pay much

near where i live a guy has one for sale it has label damage and black marker he is starting bids a 100. for just the cart

I love it when people do stupid shit like that.

look at this shit $1,826.00 and 33 bids people are out of their god damn minds lol

I predict that one will break $4000.

Seriously, the prices for this game have never been higher. The demand is far outstripping the supply. A VGA 85+ Earthbound is a once in a lifetime acquisition.

I personally don't see the need to acquire it, but it might be a good investment. The game in all forms will probably double in value a year from now.

it did... $4700 jesus christ

They paid what?!

*faints*


I'm so very glad the guy at my game store didn't feel like looking anything up that one day and I found my cart for cheap.

How much is it to get a game stupidly slabbed like that? Why not buy a mint CIB copy for 5 or 6 hundo, slab it to make sure nobody can ever play or enjoy it again, and then sell it for 5 grand to buy a car?

You will not be able to get a mint CIB copy that grades 85+ for $500-600. Used copies with visible wear sell for that much.

So is Earthbound worth its weight in gold yet?

Checking eBay completed listings, looks like you can put up a cart only copy with a BIN for $170 and free shipping and have it sell like ::snap:: that. How much is gold per ounce?

I'm thinking about selling my cart only Earthbound. Or should I wait for the price to go up higher?

I don't think anyone can know future values but you're pretty much guaranteed a buyer right now.

If you don't place any sentimental value on the game then sell away.

[Ziggy]

Yeah, I think I'm gonna. I just hate selling on eBay.

You might wanna hit up Nintendo Age. I've noticed a lot of people wanting a copy. Of course, people will be expecting to pay a little less than ebay prices.

The price is not going to come down, so if you think you may want to play it, then keep it. Otherwise, sell if you want the money now. I'm sure it will break 200 by the end of the year.

Does anyone here see the price going down at all in the next few years?

I'm kinda wondering if I should just go ahead and nab it when I have the money before it gets even crazier expensive...
