Good points by BlackTiger.

Going back to my last post, I still think that price guides are for posers.  NEC enthusiasts who take their time between purchases and are methodical will find fair prices.  If a rookie gets ripped off left and right it's because he's emptying his pocketbook faster than he's expanding his knowledge, engaging the community, and doing research.  The aforementioned activities are the real reward.  A long, arduous journey is better than the destination of having 150 games on a shelf in a world where there aren't enough hours in the day to play them all.

There is an entire community here who would only pay $5 - $100 for Turbo Magical Chase. There are other collector based communities where people are willing to pay $500 - $5000. Even with a disclaimer, I don't think that those numerical values on their own are very useful to anybody.

I think you're assessments in the previous posts are right, and I personally would pay $30 for Magical Chase.

So now you know to stay within the $4 - $4999 range? No one has posted an accurate price list. If you are going to go by what a single person has pegged hundreds of titles at, what makes their judgement better than yours?

Instead of planning on having a vague idea of what every game might be worth in conditions that are not universal, why not get a good feel for the selection of games you actually want to get next? It's not a good thing to pay $100 for Bikini Girls because you stumbled upon it and a chart had a higher number for it.

Not too long ago, I bought these from a member on these boards-

Dragon Slayer Complete with Map $35
Dracula X Complete $75

Along with a few other games. He discounted the total and included shipping. His ad specified that he was looking to do package deals, so the base individual prices took that into consideration.


I also picked up this lot which included a complete TG-16, Turbo-CD set (minus the CD-ROM), Parasol Stars complete, plus several other games for $70 shipped express. On eBay the Turbo-CD case alone would ask a price like that. It's also basically DragonmasterDan's high end Parasol Stars price + the cost to ship the lot.


Even with a disclaimer like "what to expect on eBay", full price lists are still only going to inflate asking prices.

maybe more :)

maybe an ebay price list, and a pc engine price list, or just pay what you feel it is worth..

To adjust price gouging, just say all us games are worth $25...I bet people would flip out on ebay and try to sue anyone involved...

Well, and bulk deals definitely throw off amounts things go for.

The reason I'm wanting a list to be put together is quite frankly because this community has a tendency to be a bit harsh to new users trying to buy or sell things. And with a reasonably up to date guide as a point of reference to point new users to we can avoid hall of shame like incidents from occurring.
