So what is the going rate for a CIB Diner cart?  Damn Cmart has me wanting to try completing the original 125 and I figured I'd start with Diner.

[Cebus Capucinis]

I paid $65-$70 for mine in very good CIB condition about a year ago, I think they're less expensive than that now.

60$ is the rate now

I have seen a few go in the $70-100 range this year as well. The price has been all over the place.

It came in at number 18 on the top 25 rarest list. See the link IntellivisionDude posted above. In my books it's a $75 game CIB. I think the only one posted right now is pikachu's $100 one, which, for him, is quite reasonable as this game went over $100 a number of times in 2010 and 2011. My 2 cents.

I'm debating on weather to spend money on getting one or two from the top 10 or filling in a bunch of the commons I am missing.

I would say if you can find some rare ones cheap enough go that way, just don't rush out and buy some of the games just because they are rare.  It's like I was looking for Diner everyone wanted $50 to $100, so I waited until I found one for $29.00  Also look in lots on E-bay I have found that some people that are selling in lots don't know what games are worth, all they know is they want to get rid of them. At least that has been my experience.

And, most likely, none of them today is aware of how much that game is worth now!

Going back on topic, that's really a good list and last year, in fact, I did quite an effort to get a few of those titles: Fathom, Super Cobra and Tut (CIB) plus a lose Congo (with a shining repro box, though ) but I doubt I can get any other on the Top 15 list anytime soon since prices are really too high on ebay (BTW, my Diner is lose too).
