If I start a kickstart page, will people help me pay for this?
You are on to something here >_<
That said, I do believe my level of Materialism has peaked more than ever, is that a Sin???

He will receive a prepaid preorder of Halo 4.No way is that collection worth $35000. I wonder how much trade credit EB would give him for it...
If I remember correctly, your collection is epic. In a whole different league from this one.
Hello gaming age forum,
I'm completely new to video games and I have 35k at the bank. Is this a good package to start ?
I've dismantled and sold most the retro stuff (NES, SNES, MD, Saturn, PC Engine, PS1 all largely wiped out)- next up it to sell the arcade boards. X360 and PS2 need culled down more.
If it sells, yes. If not, no.
All of those games look like they're in pristine shape. I would regret selling all of those later in life. You can't find many of those old games in such conditions easily.

all i learned from this thread that is that video game boxes were cooler back then.
Hey go easy on Mark BalleloYou should've posted a picture of the $13,000 NES guy.
"Please be a NES 001."
No way near that price. Throw in a gold Nintendo World Championship Cart (roughly worth $15,000 - $20,000) and it still wouldn't be worth that asking price. The guy is deluded.
I dunno. Cardboard isn't very practical if you're looking for shelf life. Plus it took more space than current media cases.
*Complete copy of Earthbound in Very Good Condition
*Snatcher and The Space Adventure on Sega CD
*Suikoden II on PS1
*Clayfighter Sculptor's Cut with Box on Nintendo 64
*2 Sealed Copies of Infinite Space on the DS
*Sealed copies of Paper Mario and NFL Blitz Special Edition(blockbuster only release) on Nintendo 64
*Majority of the DS/PS3/360/Wii/PSP games are sealed(the ones that are horizontal are sealed, the ones that are stacked are opened and complete)
*Sealed PSP LEs(including all the YS's)
*Metroid Prime Trilogy Sealed for Wii
*Metroid Prime/Zelda Wind Waker Combo Sealed for Gamecube(seal has a rip)
*Very rare Complete GBA Games(Ninja 5-O, Wings, Pink Panther, many more)
*Some sealed collector's/limited editions for current gen consoles(on the top shelf in the closet pic, cant really see them, ill provide a pic if needed)
Ouch, that almost makes me sad. Why did you decide to sell them? And did you make mad loot?
I'd pay £300 max for that shit..
I have no idea why the bolded are "notable mentions."
If they are still sealed, I doubt he is enjoying them now so he would be regretting selling some unopened boxes.All of those games look like they're in pristine shape. I would regret selling all of those later in life. You can't find many of those old games in such conditions easily.
(not sure how multiple copies of games helps his "quality over quantity" claim)
I think a shelf of dvd/bluray cases for all the current systems looks boring though. I like all the different sized and deformed boxes for the old systems, I think the NES boxes look the best, especially the one for Mario 3, bring on the character!I dunno. Cardboard isn't very practical if you're looking for shelf life. Plus it took more space than current media cases.
**UPDATE 3/23(in response to the rude emails ive been getting):
If you dont think this lot is worth it, youre obviously not a collector(or, no offense, a bad collector that doesnt know prices of games). The amount of time it would take to get some of these games would turn into years(a bunch arent even up on ebay at the moment and probably wont be for a while, i know this from experience sitting on ebay the last 3 years). I had a $26,000 offer yesterday that I turned down because I would be losing money on the lot. I know you may be thinking this seller is crazy, but youre the same person/people i buy games off and sell them for tripple what I payed. Im not trying to be a dick, but ive been getting some really nasty emails(threatening me, trying to blackmail me, belittling me, ect). Please dont email me if youre going to be an ass. Thanks to the people that have actually sent me legitamite questions and offers.
What kind of self absorbed waster even considers buying this? oO
A huge collection of games you'll mostly never play, and this accomplishes what shallow purpose?
Did you see what this idiot wrote at the bottom of the description?
What a fucking idiot. Learn how to spell and write coherent sentences.
I think the guy is just exasperated. He probably wrote that addendum because he was fed up with people sending him nasty notes.
Where does it say he sold it? Looks like he declined every single offer.
