Nobody is going to pay a G for that. Too many commons and covers a variety of systems that not all collectors own. You're targeting resellers. Better off seperating if you want the most $. People expect a deal if you bulk everything in a lot like that. It will just sit in limbo on ebay, craigslist, or whatever. Most will roll their eyes and keep it movin. Resellers will lowball you and pick it apart.

Yeah I'd have to agree here. You have a lot of common titles here and selling as a lot even if you don't want to bother with it will probably not happen easily. I would say sell each title off at a time and work from there. Looking again you have a few decent things but a lot of common stuff that only resellers would probably go after.

Also if you do plan to sell things here instead of ebay, keep in mind that while you want to get as much money possible for your goods, you also need to take into account that this isn't ebay so you should list your stuff at lower and fair prices since you won't be eating any fees thru ebay.

If you are concerned with being 'fair' then start each of those listings at one dollar and whatever the final price is at auction's end is what they are respectively 'worth.'

Here's some solid but not expert advice:

eBay: you'll get probably about $350-$400 for that whole lot at most, general rule is about 33-50% of the value in lots because like others said re-sellers would want it. I like a few of the games you're selling but I'd never buy the whole lot because I don't collect for any of those Nintendo systems and have most of those games in the Sega groupings.

If you sold them separately on eBay you'd probably end up with about 66% of the value minus shipping costs if you use free or lower than cost shipping to help move things - and that does help.

On sites like this for gamers: As a lot you'd probably get about 20-25% of the value or about 200-250 total because the people who are interested most likely have most of the commons (yuck duplicates) and won't want to spend that much to get the more desirable games.

The more 'rare' or valuable games will be snatched up first if you sell separately for example a Sunset Riders or something like that for $50-$55 and then most of the commons will gather dust around the house because no one will buy them.


If I were you I'd sell the more common ones in bundles for cheap (33%-50% value) on eBay hoping to get a collector or re-seller and sell the more desirable (pricier) games individually on here for 80% of the value ($100 sells for $80) or on eBay for market value and then lose a bit to fees. Comes out about the same.

Thanks for all the info I have to figure out what I'm going to do with them.

Something that hasn't been suggested yet would be to sell them in group lots by console. You still won't get full value, but you'll save a lot of time vs listing them individually.
