Selling SNES games on Ebay...

Post by PokeMom »

Hey, totally new here. I found some SNES games in my closet that I'm planning on putting out on Ebay.

Does anyone have any advice on how I should list them? Should I combine some of them? Should I do a reserve of any of them? Really, I have no clue, and any advice would really be appreciated.

Chrono Trigger...I have everything-.the box, instruction booklet, all the inserts, the two posters, but it doesn't have the outside plastic wrap nor the plastic bag the game was in.

Secret of Mana...I have the box,instruction booklet, all the inserts, but no plastic wrap.

Secret of Mana Official Game Secrets book by Prima Publishing...I even have the fold out map that comes came with it. Should I list it with the game?

Illusion of Gaia. Never opened....still sealed in the original plastic wrap.

Secret of Evermore. Never opened....still sealed in the original plastic wrap, with a price sticker that says $64.99. :shock:

King Arthur's World....have the box, instruction booklet and inserts.

edited to add that I also have

Tetris and Dr Mario...have the box, instruction booklet and inserts.

PacMan 2 The New Adventure...have the box and instruction booklet and inserts.

These are the one's that I have the boxes for. My sons decided they wanted to play the SNES again, since it's been a long time. I don't have the boxes for most of the kids games, or at least, I don't know where they would be, and I don't think they would let me sell those.

So...any suggestions would be really appreciated.

Thanks.

:D

Holy shit!!! Definetly sell Chrno Trigger separately, that will bring in some major dough.

All of these games should fetch a decent price individually. Including the Secret of Mana strategy guide with the game should increase the selling price significantly.

If you're looking to see how much these are going for, you can do a search on eBay for completed auctions.

Good luck. You're sitting on a potential gold mine.

Without a doubt sell them seperately those are some of the best RPGs the SNES has to offer. Also when you get them posted give a link here. I'm interested in quite a few of those games for my personal collection.

I agree with everyone else. Definatley sell them seperately. You should make some good money off of Chrono and Secret of Mana. Secret of Evermore and Illusion of Gaia usually don't go for too much, but sealed should bump up the value. Sealed SNES games have been fetching alot these day.

Do you already have an ebay account? If you don't, have a friend list them for you, people might be suspicious of a brand new seller listing rare games complete (and others even sealed) and not bid on your stuff.

I disagree with everyone....you should sell them to me for like 10 bucks total. <.<
Seriously though...list them separately and you'll be rolling in the dough.
Somebody sell me a model 1 modchip for Saturn. Please.
