sku_u Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Question: As I now have most of these boxed, I will soon be selling off my loose copies which includes all picture labels minus Superman and most text labels (including serial number variations). What would be a fair selling price for this lot? ...and no, I will not be parting it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would be a fair selling price for this lot? ...and no, I will not be parting it out. With all due respect, if you sell it as one big lot, then most likely it will end up in the hands of a reseller who will part it out. IMO, parting out at least the rarer carts would net you a higher return and earn you the apprectiation of those collectors who would like the opportunity to secure these carts for a fair price from a fellow collector rather than a reseller. Just my 2¢... Edited June 15, 2006 by Christophero Sly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Send 'em to me for a case of beer and we'll be done with it. Mmmmm, beer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my 2¢... I may end up doing exactly that as all I am looking to do is recoup some of the expense of buying the boxed games. I am just curious what a complete Sears collection minus Superman is worth loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricDeLee Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 I may end up doing exactly that as all I am looking to do is recoup some of the expense of buying the boxed games. I am just curious what a complete Sears collection minus Superman is worth loose. $200-$300 That's about right. I'd possibly place it a little higher... around $350 or so. I think if it was advertised here... and then placed on ebay, you'd have a lot of people wanting to get this lot. I personally would watch it, to see where it ended, but I usually collect the loose carts, thus I would try to find a loose collection somewheres. LOL I have quite a few of these as of lately now that I think about it. I've been searching specifically for Sears pics... I've been looking for 3 years for the Gunslinger (I want it for the Stephen King Dark Tower refrence as well. I'm a geek... what can I say). It is kinda of an obsession lately. I'm sure I could just buy from a collector... however I would rather find one in The Wild. It would rate right up there with my Xante cart find... except I would keep it that is for sure. If I ever find a double of the Gunslinger.... I will try to see if I can get a second loose Sears set together and offer it for sell. That would be interesting. I am thinking of snagging a few of Wonder's Sears labels in the marketplace. They are very tempting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricDeLee Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Yep... I was pretty happy about that. I have a Canyon Bomber as well. Had it for a while now... but the end label is ripped. So now I have a Cannon Bomb. I'll sell this rarity for one Gajillion, million dollars! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shining slade Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 That damn Basketball cart eluded me for quite awhile. I'd say it's a 6 too, maybe a 7 depending on the day! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricDeLee Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 I guess I lucked out on my Basketball one. I wasn't really paying attention to the Sears labels... except for Night Driver and Gunslinger. Goes to show that some games fly under the radar still. This was at a video game store. Then again... so was my last copy of QBert Qubes, River Raid II, and the XANTE cart I found. Just added a minty Chase and Submarine Commander to the mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
