These usually sell from 50-100 

Did this come from eBay? Pretty sure this is a reproduction.

Does this also work for metallic paints?

Yes. Here’s a sample of what I’m talking about. Might not be the cheapest route but will give you the best color match.  

Take it to an auto body supply store. They have color maps and color chip books that will get you really close. 

@PII here you go

Congrats on a very cool find! I’ve restored a couple of these that were in terrible shape. Yours  looks to be in a presentable condition

I did. Do we know what the binder looked like? Would help narrow the search. 

This is the brochure it came from.

I have some of these older brochures, did you happen to get a picture of what the front looked like?

I believe it had Mario on the front. 

 Found a Nintendo service center brochure on eBay and was quickly snipped as I logged into PayPal. Took a screenshot of something I found interesting. Haven’t been able to find the listing since. I’ve asked some people about the service centers repairing games and never really got anything concrete. Surely there’s a collector out there with a repair center binder that details the process.

it did.. you were right, but i think my price of 2k was bit too low  

That group is pretty insane! Probably could have squeezed out a couple hundred more. Sorry if my evaluation was low.

Damn that sold quickly! 

@Jman this is the one.

Wow, just like the style of my Super Mario World art 'SNES" hanging sign, bet it's the same material and general size too.  Oh I'd love to own that, but I mdon't see that being a wise investment if it's really worth upwards of $2K.   Makes me question what my sign is valued at though.

The super Mario world sign is one of the most common out there. Still fetches from $500- $1000 depending on condition. One sold new in the box with the paperwork for around $1500 shipped recently on eBay. @Jman there’s another version to this sign that has a button and speaker that plays a commercial for mario 3. Both versions are very sought after. There’s a kiosk and sign group on Facebook.. probably the best place to sell. Wish I could afford it myself. Good luck! 

Close to 2k depending on condition. 

Incredible piece! Are the hangtabs broken? There’s a sign and kiosk group on Facebook that would definitely be able to point you in the right direction. 

Great stuff! There’s a display and kiosk group on Facebook that would love this info. 

Very cool stuff! Here’s a marketing kit for a Mercury Villager with a Visteon N64 installed.

@Funky_brewsta Could you post a back pic. of the 5-Screw R.C. Pro-Am cart?

Circuit Board would be helpful as well...

did we do a Mega Man set trade for it? if so, yes! good to hear from you. 

That was it. Glad to see you joined! 

Awesome collection! I could be wrong but I might have traded you that U-Force proto on Nintendoage. 

@wyansas This is the first time in a couple years or maybe ever that one is listed as a N7 variant on eBay. Pretty excited to see where it ends value wise. The Gretzky -3 has been selling for crazy money and this is way harder to find. Looking forward to seeing how many people actually care.

I agree that label looks bad. He sold another 5 screw Tyson in February for a little over 1k open auction. Positive feedback for the sale. I believe this guy is intentionally faking damage on reproduction  labels and replacing with a five screw shell.

I'm not mixing up photos.  These are Mercari and Mercado Livre listings. But I guess 2 people could've taken pics of different backs. Not sure why they'd do that... also. I'm not at home so I can't check,  but it seems like it would be possible to wedge a 3 screw back on a 5 front.  Am I wrong about this?

The pics are of two different games.

Has anyone else seen copies of Soccer floating around out there that have 3 screw back labels with 5 screw front? I realize this would be easy to do, but I've seen 2 today,  and that seems odd. And it's not like the sellers are advertising them  as 3 screws, and I've never seen other mismatched back swap carts (at least two of the same title in close proximity). Thoughts?

I think you are mixing up photos. It would be impossible to match a 3 and five screw cartridges together.
