Wow what an old topic. I completely frogot about all this. To answer some questions, my name is Daniel. I was not sure about how much those games were worth so I think the $1,000 was what I wanted. And lastly, I mostly bought my games in large lots. What I would do is buy 100 games from somebody for $20 or $30 and keep the ones I didn't already have.
And I only bought these deals about once a month or so. Usually at flea markets. And what I would do with all the extra games is put em on ebay. I once sold 30 games (mostly dupes) for $100. so I really turned things around quite often.
One other thing I'd like to know is, does anybody know where that freakin Gauntlet came from? I bought it off ebay a few years ago for $5 because I saw on the rarity list that it was a 10 (the rarest), then I found out that I was mistaken and yet the copy I had wasn't even listed! I shoud have asked a thousand for that cart only.
