I can get a boxed working Aura Interactor for $22.00 if anyone is interested. I guess that's what it is worth, but I have no intention of buying it for myself.

So I found this on Craig's List today. Obviously I know the value of an NES so I think it's a great idea, but I have no idea what a Sega 3000 is, so am I getting a good deal on it for 2o bucks?

Thanks. And I went ahead and passed up on the Game Boy lot I posted earlier. I figure I can get everything cheaper individually.

I scanned through the games list, and there's not much there. The Pokemon games, FF8, Megaman, and Castlevania games will probably be very easy to sell, but the rest will be a bit harder to sell.

On the other hand, the consoles are definitely worth more than $80, but I'd bring along cables to test them. You've got to make sure that the consoles work, because that's where most of the value of this bundle is, and this guy was pretty insistent that the consoles are sold as is.

thats what i was thinking, the consoles i could for sure sell to various places/ people. I would be fine with making at least half back since I need a saturn and I dont have a couple of those games. I'll have to think about this.

Playstation 1 : Castlvania: Symphony of the Night - PAL

I can't speak for the PAL version, but the NTSC-U/C version is worth $20-$30.

Also, you never want to rely on Buy it Now postings to determine value.

Well, I'll be. I'm at an utter loss. I can't see why the PAL version would go for that much.
