attakid101 | 273 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Did you guys see this? Obviously staged but definitely a clever move on Wata’s part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GPX | 1,374 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 More marketing and hype propaganda. In evaluating a price, they needed to go to a long time collector, independent of WATA. Too much potential bias going on, particularly when there was no mention of actual sales prices (only a verbal $300,000 offer was mentioned, but how legit?). Still sticking to the million dollar asking price at the end, makes the guy seem like an attention seeker/price pumper/shill bidder, or all the above. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Code Monkey | 2,016 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) I thought the $100,150 sale a few months ago was for a matte sealed version. Edited November 23, 2019 by Code Monkey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also haven't looked in that thread because "Rich aka Rareusgoldon Pawn Stars" is not very descriptive of anything.

Teh_Lurv | 254 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 I love Rick's reaction @ 0:12: "This is the earliest sticker sealed Super Mario Bros." Rick: "...that's pretty amazing" LOL, even though the thing is staged, you can hear the lack of "give a shits" in his voice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. It was technically a private sale. But, there was at least one offer that was higher than the $100k and change it sold for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronty | 187 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) They are completely different markets. An HT Mario if any description is a rare piece but an opened one isn’t. the value of yours would depend on condition but likely much less than 10% if an average copy.

G-type | 2,554 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 When the guy asked for a million dollars, I was hoping he would go "Fuck you!" and throw him out. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumez | 2,996 Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 TIL Nintendo in the US only did the sticker seal from 1985-1986. Over here we had to suffer that lazy approach up until at least the mid 90s. Most of my original SNES games from when I was a kid still have their sealing sticker intact because I loved that it had the little Nintendo logo on it, so I would carefully wriggle it off with a flat knife to avoid damaging it.
