Title: Shoud I?
Post by: SLIVER on March 29, 2004, 11:33:25 AM: I'm planning on selling my cube (launch one) with 5 games and big (10 dollar 1 year old controller) for $130 heres the list:
Cube (jet black)
Purple Controler (not Nintendo one) or Wave Bird
Bloody Roar- Good condition, no box or instructions
Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2- no box or instructions
NHL Hitz 20-02- no box or instructions
Wave Race- box and instructions, payed 10 bucks for it brand new at Circuit City
Crash Bandicoot Wrath of Cortex- Box and Instructions- payed 6 preowned
____________________________________________________________
Total: $130.00 -----with out purple controller, but with WaveBird $145.00

All stuff is in good condition. Is it a good deal to sell or should I keep my stuff?
The money is going for the purchase of a new gamecube at the store and Metal Gear Solid: TTS. Should I do it? All those game I have't played in atleast 4 months.

Post by: SLIVER on March 29, 2004, 12:24:58 PM: I bought them preowned and dirtcheap at the flea market, gamestop, garagesales, etc.... and they came with no instructions some with boxes, most of them just not these

Hi I like to sell my cube w/o box and instructions and some are decent games and some shovelware 3rd party crap. And for that i wana buy a cube and MGSTS. Bizzaro land exit and In reality you screwed yourself.

Just wondering, why sell the hardware only to buy another one? My guess is that you want a different color.

Post by: Ymeegod on April 01, 2004, 05:38:43 AM: I would sell it for that price :0. A pre-owned GC with no warranty is about $60 at most and most of those games are less than $5 minus NFSHP2 which is $15 or so. So if you have a buyer for $130 by all means take advantage of that sucker.

And usally there's a special when you buy a new GC at $99. Just have to look around but a few weeks ago there was a rebate of $30 when you bought a GC with a $49 Game. Of course that's expired by now but there's aways a couple more in a week or so.
