Title: Bought someone`s collection
Post by Jordan MacNamara on 06. Dec 2006 at 16:55

Hi,I bought someone`s collection on ebay and just received it today.There was nothing very rare in the collection and I paid more than I usually do for complete games but the stuff looked super minty on the pic.
I got it today and I was blown away on how nice this guy kept his stuff,every game is 100% complete and the games,boxes and manuals looked like they were never touched.
The boxed accessory`s and action set are also 100% complete with paperwork and plastic.
I was also happy to find 7 factory sealed games(the auction said some were new but not wich ones):golgo 13,anticipation,ironsword,monopoly,dragon warrior,castlevania III and megaman 5.
Here are some pics.

That is an awesome score. It is pretty neat to go out on a limb for something and get something sweet out of it.

Great score. That Mega Man and CVIII sealed are worth a ton by themselves. How much did it all set you back?

I won it for 540$,which works out to around 8.70 a game but there were lots of extras like the complete action set,controllers,accessory`s and mags.

When I bid, I usually try and get them for 6$ each but all the games are 100% complete with inserts and super minty,even the zelda map still has the white sticker seal uncut,so this this guy probably never even played with his games.

Damn, great score, congrats! :D I wonder if he bought all these games sealed and opened some to play, since they all look like new + he had some factory sealed games too. Like he found some old stock in a store or something.
