Check out this crazy auction for 247 sealed NES games!

http://cgi.ebay.com/Sealed-New-NES-Nintendo-247-Games-Instant-Collection_W0QQitemZ160141893483QQihZ006QQcmdZViewItem

So, it is already over $2,000 with over 2 days left, which is not bad, at less than $10 a game!

What do you think these are worth individually, on average? I didn't see any stadium events or anything in the list, but it is still very impressive. I'd guess $30 per game would be very fair, but that is a complete guess. Comments?

(by the way, this is NOT my auction. I just was impressed by it.)

99,999 Pounds!!!! that guy is INSANE!!!!

I think he only wants some more visits ...

Speaking about overpriced sales. A Classic example of noobish buyer insanity.

What if there would be a dust and fingerprints over the plastic?

Prestine? Am I wrong or do I see a slight inverted bulge on the front bottom side?

Hmm. Nintendo Classics version, and blister packed. Different cover from the UK Classics version, which had the normal Link's Awakening cover surrounded by a red background, rather than the whole cover being red. Not too sure i'm keen on the blister packaging though, and i'd rather have a UK version with the red Nintendo tear strip any day!

Well, I either got a steal on this or it's going back for a refund. Figured it was worth the chance. Will report on it

Bucky, here's a message I got from the seller after numerous emails.

"The box could be opened with the seal on if you are perfectly percise
but personally I wouldn't try unless you want to rip the seal more

I think it is open and used. Notice how he doesn't show the right side and just says "factory shrink" instead of sealed and not played "by him". It looks like he is selling you this game he recently bought:

yip , just as we thought , con man !! he's no long registered with ebay !!

I thought so as well and asked him about that but he says that is a different copy. Not sure whether that is the case or not. The only difference I noticed was the lack of a hangtab on that auction.

Have you asked him for more detailed pictures? I think it is easy to take off the hang tab. If you haven't paid him yet, I would wait for pictures. He has very little feedback.

Well I passed on buying that CT - too risky and too much misinformation from the seller. I'll let someone else "get lucky"

On another topic, who the hell is happycstar on ebay? Is that a forum member here? This person has been paying the most insane amounts for games.
