I'm slowly cleaning out my Famicom stuff, but on the fence about keeping a few items. I have a brand new and boxed Super Mario World for Famicom (does not include instructions) that is 100% mint. I have a mint and boxed Somari (played once) that I don't believe has instructions but I can check the box. I also have a CONY "brand" SF2 pirate that is boxed w/instructions. The box and instructions have seen better days, but it's rare to find a CIB copy. I'm sticking my foot in the water to see what kind of offers I can get for these. Thanks. I can upload pics later tonight or tomorrow.

If you live in the U.S I would be interested in Somari

Yep, I'm in the US. I know the going rate for loose SMWs is around $50-60 so I'd expect a little more for a new one that is boxed. Somaris go for less than that, but again this is boxed so don't send an offer of $10 or something  ;D I'll try to do pictures tonight as I'm cleaning out my closet preparing to EBay a bunch of other stuff I don't use.

How much would you sell the Somari for?  I probably wouldn't buy it if it was over $30 :P

Hmm...they're all neat. I don't think you'll get Somari for $30. BTW: Did Somari and Super come with manuals. I know most pirated games had only boxes. For instance, I've to got Super with a box and no manual.

madman

Yea, only SF2 had instructions. I may put Somari on EBay and take best offers for the others on here.

OH man I can't believe you are selling your boxed pirate games. I remember when you got them I was like wow he is probably never going to let them go. Anyways, best of luck selling them as for me I don't have anywhere near a decent offer to offer you.

I may put Somari on EBay
Yes...do that.

You think it will go for under $30 on EBay? I've seen loose Somaris go for more on there.
