Bonk 3 Whats it worth?
« on: May 06, 2008, 02:09:16 PM »
Hi,
I have a chance to get a copy of Bonk 3 CIB (very minty) for in around $250 Cnd. So I was wondering if it is worth that much?
Please let me know.
Thanks
Rob

Uh, that's a bit more than I would pay. That game is hard to put a price tag on though. If you were to go by eBay, then it surely is worth $250. But we all know how well eBay works as a value guide.  :roll:

I'd say thats a rip off. Going by ebay prices, the US hucard version is worth US $80-130 complete (sold for $50 loose last week!) and the cd version is worth US $100 and up (I've seen the cd version  sell for over $200, lol). The Japanese hucard version is worth around US $30 and up in complete condition.

A complete Bonk 3 is going to be hard to come by to begin with. $250Cnd is a bit steep, unless it's factory-sealed, in which case it's still a little pricey but how often do you see these buggers sealed? By my price list, Bonk 3 card + manual gets $89, and with box is about $99...sealed is close to $200 (all US prices). Bonk 3 CD commands a higher price because it's a low-quantity run (less than 3000 discs in the world) and I've never seen a truly factory-sealed one on eBay (seen a few "re-seals" though).

Just email the guy and told him I had to pass because I just bought GTA 4 SE and a couple other 360 games + a complete copy of both Chase HQ and Dead Moon for $60 shipped.
Thanks Guys for the input I really appreciate it.

Hey guys just thought I would let every one know that I decided after telling the guy that I didn't want to buy it any ways because it is in like knew condition and it is one of the last expensive games that I need and been lucky so far. The last expensive game I need is Magical Chase.

good going..  250 dollars in any currency (well, in many currencies) is a high price for a video game.   Good to see you were patient and paid half as much.   In my eyes "250" is begging to be taken down to "200"  - I'm a big negotiator.

you did the right thing.  $250 if it's sealed.  if it's in perfect and complete condition, consider anything less than $175 a bargain.

I saw the going prices a couple of years ago and sold it, I don't regret getting $300 plus for a game. Best investment ever since I paid $50 brand new. Whenever this shows up on VC I will definitely drop some points on the download.
