DefaultGen | 5,401 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Looks like it went down in value. Sealed copy used to be worth $1056, now it's only worth $247! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a3quit4s | 4,096 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Small sample size but I got a loose Super Noah’s Ark for $91 which generally retails for around $150 and a loose Super Adventure Island 2 for $64 which normally sells for $130 on the bay recently. I did wait for an auction on these two but I’ve done that in the past with other games and still paid near retail for them. Hopefully a sign of the sealed/graded market getting all the attention and loose prices coming down! I figured I’d post some good news since we are always bitching about high prices. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Focusing on auctions or a seller than will actually bargain with you on a buy it now is the best way to get a more normalized price.

Naked Warrior | 288 Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Bomberman-Quest-Nintendo-Game-Boy-Color-GBC-Brand-New-Sealed-/165251135461?_trksid=p2349526.m4383.l44720.c10&nordt=true&rt=nc&orig_cvip=true I feel like someone is going to be upset when they get this "mint" copy back from WATA next year and it grades 8.5. I mean, it is a pretty tough game to find CIB (or NIB, of course), but I've never won an eBay auction (for a video game) where the 3rd bidder was $1,500 less than me and felt good about it... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
