I find that rarityguide is usually WAY off in their numbers. I wouldn't trust that site.

Marvel vs. Capcom 1 and 2 are both rated on rarityguide.com as very collectible.

marvel vs. Capcom 78% 57.00 CIB or 110 NIB

Marvel vs. Capcom 2 80% 88.00 CIB or 176.00 NIB

The sight has a percentage score for rating how rare a game is...

They also list prices there worth as "disc only" "complete in box" "New in box"

I always check this sight out when i get new games Its pretty cool my panzer dragoon saga shows

97% rare 240.00 CIB...600.00 NIB....88.00 Disc(s) only

not sure we're they get their data from, but both games are abundant on eBay, Amazon, etc. Usually can be had in the $30-$40 range CIB. So yeah, as you can see the actual market shows a pretty big discrepancy in what that site is telling you.

Really? They seem dead on with other games like panzer dragoon saga.

Are they really off? cause I liked looking at that sight :(

IF so where do i look for a good accurate pricing guide?

Rarityguide also lists Earthbound at 61 percent and Super Mario World at 72 percent.

Super Mario World. A pack-in title. One of the single most common games on the SNES. Rarer than Earthbound.

I don't trust rarityguide at all.

This. You can snag multi plat MvC copies all day long for pretty cheap.

This. Seriously, those price valuations on rarityguide are laughable. In what parallel universe are Dreamcast sports titles worth $7 CIB, and the Web Browser $5 CIB?

This alone destroys any credibility they might have.

I find that videogamepricecharts.com is pretty good for pricing stuff.

Ebay completed listings is good, but they only very recent transactions.

They are abit closer to the mark on pds. It is a rare game and will regularly fetch 200+ nm
