BOING!

[theknod]

i got this as part of a huge lot the other day.

great little game.

i was wondering

a. is it really a $60 game

b. is there any price difference between a square or strange shaped

copy (as found on ebay right now)

c. how does one go about getting that strange build up off of the silver label

(the one on ebay has alot of it mine only has some but would look better without it)

Boing is a fun game! I believe the odd shaped case is case is more valuable. $60 doesn't seem unreasonable to me but the value of most carts has decreased over the past year or two.

I really like Boing! I think it's a fun game.

 

Of the two cart styles, the Xonox style seems to be slightly more desirable than the rectangular version. The value (for a loose cart) tends to yo-yo between $30 and $60, but I see where the last 3 copies on eBay didn't sell at all. I'd put the value closer to the lower end of that range.

 

Anyhow, keep it, you'll have more fun playing it!

Hate to tell you, but that's not coming off.

$30-$60 is reasonable to me... I paid $50 or so for mine and it's one of the most used games I own besides all the homebrews. I'd pay $50 again for it in a heartbeat.
