I know i put a post about which rare game should i buy, but an ebay seller had a rare nes game cib lot with the flintstones, little sampson, bonks adventure, etc. for about 6500. so i took kimini's advice and messaged him to see if he could sell flintstones only instead of in the lot. So he message me today and said yes. He now has the game up for 2500 flintstones cib. i was not expecting to pay that much but I know its rare and dont have any other way to get the game other than ebay. instead of panzer dragoon saga, i think i may save roughly 1000 over time, and get flintstones first due to rarity then others. What do you guys think???? I know I cant make up my mind but it seems the flintstones game complete in box is the rarest according to ebays history |

No one can answer these questions besides you. Everyone collects for different reasons. Would I pay that amount? No. Never. The game is not worth it. I can't think of a single game worth that amount. I also never wanted to be the schmuck who paid several hundred dollars for a game. Much less 2500. At some point the hobby becomes less about the hobby and it becomes about spending money. The people who take this road burn out quick and leave the hobby with a lot of regrets. But again, only you can answer that. But the above is the answer for me, which is the only way I can answer it. |

I agree with the above answer. I was going for a complete NES cart set. Im up to 710 carts right now (once the last one arrives in a couple days). That leaves about 55 games left. But its to the point where basically everything left is going to set me back a car payment/house payment or more per cart and for me that is simply not acceptable. I decided that I will complete my wall (which will be 715 games when done) and Ill be happy with that. The 50 games I dont pick up are not going to bother me and most of them are just crappy games anyhow. If you really want to play F2, Id suggest either emulation or get a power pak and load that thing up with every rom you can imagine. |

I never want to pay over 20 or 30 for a game but I really want a hard copy of the game. I hate having games without boxes for some reason. And Ebay unfortunately is the only way to go unless I get a 1 in a million lucky shot. If I ever found that game locally at my flea market, they would sell it for over 800 and I know I will not find it at a thrift store or good will, unless I get that 1/1 million lucky chance that I go at the right time. I was for sure going with Panzer Dragoon Saga, but when I kept looking at the Flintstones, the cover got my attention lol. I know its more sought after as well and one day, there wont be hardly any hard copies of that game to come by. Which ever I choose, even tho the price is crazy, I'll let you know. Maybe too because this is the first time in my life I can actually spend that kind of money to buy a rare game so im kind of excited about it. ;D |
