What's a fair price for a...
« on: March 24, 2012, 11:00:17 pm »
I found someone locally selling a 3DO kiosk with tv/system/contollers and a BNIB Apple Pippin and I am looking for what would be fair prices to offer on each.

Thanks

Really? I see Pippin going for around 300-400$ if they're complete in box, I can't imagine a "sealed" one being worth much more, since it's hard to say if it's actually "sealed" or not.

Not sure about the 3DO kiosk though... I wasn't even aware they made those to be honest :p

A bit more info: the Pippin is the Japanese version and he has tried to sell it on ebay twice for 275 but he will take 250.

Sealed games really inflate the price a lot.
FF3 is $100 complete, it's $800-1000 sealed..

I know that, but consoles are very rarely actually sealed even when you get them new. At most they may have a small sticker to keep it closed, but that's it. So even if the console actually IS brand new, how can the seller prove it? I can't see any reason to inflate the price when the buyer has no way to know if a console is actually brand new.

Wow, then yeah, it's not worth that much. The US version is worth a lot more. :(
