What is the most you have ever paid for a Nes game? So far all the pawn shops I have gone to sell them for $5. And have you ever seen a place that was selling Nes games for way to much?

Around here I find that $5 is the going rate for commons, it kinda sucks, but there aen't a whole lot of games I'm still looking for. I think the most I paid for a single game was... $8 for my complete and mint Air Fortress or $8 for Gauntlet. (Prices in Canadian Dollars)

I paid $12.00 for Crystallis, but that's only because it had the Gameboy Color Sticker on it, and I really didn't feel like starting an arguement with the guy who was obviously new to working the register. Other than that my prices usually range from $.99 - $6.00 but if I want the game, I really dont mind paying a little more even if I am getting "ripped off".

I don't really have a limit, I judge each game individually. The most I paid was 10 pounds for a complete (inserts, instructions etc) Donkey Kong Classics.

I paid $45 CAD for Tengen Tetris. $5 or so is not a bad price at all for any NES game, I really hate the shops that think they know what games are worth. The other day, seen some place selling the Nintendo Tetris for $20!?! A couple of TMNT games for $20 a piece, Loopz and Dr. Chaos for $13 each. This is beyond the point of buying for me. One other thing I hate about shops and NES games, some people like to individually price each game with a black marker! I told the guy at this shop once that if he wouldn't have marked each one with the pen I would have boughten them, you should have seen the look on his face. But then I think of the time I bought my Maxi-15 cart for $3 and I begin to feel better!

I don't see NES games that are too horribly priced, it's usually N64 ones I see at dumb prices. Like Majora's Mask at Gamecrazy here in town was $32.

Here's my top four most expensive NES games that I've paid for: Garage Cart - $40 USD Princess Tomato - ~$28 USD (waiting on this to come in the mail :) ) Dragon Warrior II - $25 USD Dragon Warrior III - $20 USD I usually end up spending around five bucks for most of my games though.

back when i first started collecting NES games i paid $15 for Contra, and later got another copy for free from a friend :evil: other than that the most i've paid for a NES game is $9.99 each for Bubble Bobble, Contra Force, TMNT III, and Color a Dinosaur.... but i felt those were worth it considering they're either hard to find or jacked up too high on ebay

As of now, I wouldn't pay more than 10 dollars for a NES game. I have in the past though... Prices here are either really good, or horrible. My local store had Bubble Bobble for 4.99, while they had Mega Man 3 and 4 for 25 each.

I paid $20 for a complete Menace Beach and $30 for a complete Dragon Warrior IV. I see prices around $7USD in my area. Give or take. Most places here know what's up regarding most games.
