Dragon's Curse Value new sealed?

[ObeyMyEgo]

Like the title says. Need some help figuring the value of this game sealed. I bought a lot recently and it had two brand new sealed.

Any help is greatly appreciated

[SignOfZeta]

Yo mama.

[ObeyMyEgo]

Thanks for the awesome help.

Anyways i ask because i want to trade it towards Sega stuff.

[PunkCryborg]

$49.95 new

[Gentlegamer]

Ask over at DoxPhile

[ObeyMyEgo]

Alright. I guess I did something wrong. Glad to see everyone acting mature.

[ClodBusted]

Only worth something when unsealed and being played.

I was told by someone via pm you guys think im looking to unload it for cash. I can assure you I'm not. My buddy has a huge sega collection from doing tag sales. He told me to figure out what its worth and he will trade me sega stuff of equal value.

He has a crusader of centy i desperately want. Was hoping this may be up in the 300$ range so i can just add cash for that game.

[ClodBusted]

I can assure you I'm not.

"Of course, Joanna, of course."

[ObeyMyEgo]

If I was going to resell wouldn't I have just put it on eBay with like a 200$ reserve?

I collect. I don't scalp my fellow people.

[ClodBusted]

Bullshit. You're going to prevent other humble people from playing good games.

[ObeyMyEgo]

You sound salty AF. Damn right I will prevent retards from opening these sealed gems.

[LostFlunky]

You sound salty AF. Damn right I will prevent retards from opening these sealed gems.

Yep - sounds like you got it all figured out - "retards" open and play games.  Why don't you try the same theory on food?

[ObeyMyEgo]

Yet you find it acceptable to bash new comers for asking a legit question.

Yeah I'm the one that has it all figured out.

[majors]

Welcome to the internet.

We prolly act like children because we honestly do not know. Worth is what you can get, sealed random game might not be documented as much as Drac X or even MC. Dragons Curse is is(was) available on Virtual Console for $7 so there is a start. Retail was $50 like punk said in '91...calculate inflation: $87. Being sealed does not have as much importance in this group for the most part, there may be other forums that put more "value" on sealed games.

Personally, if I had two sealed copies of Dragons Curse, I'd put it on eBay to avoid the crap on here. Have you pieced out the lot you bought per item to give your actually cost? That would give you a starting value, and just ask double. 100% return is pretty good in this financial market.

You will find most people here support the "open it and play it" vs the "collectard" mentality. Most people here, I find also will not pay an absurd price for a game they can get for much less opened and in good condition.

This community supports each other I have found. In terms of raffles giving away games that you are looking (hoping) to be worth $300 sealed. So of course you might not get the best treatment out of the gate.

Just remember, it's just material, it's worthless junk to most everyone in the world. It's only worth something to those that "collect". But to people that would like to enjoy those games they may offer some money toward it but not what you would want. So the price here, is exactly what PunkCryborg said, $49.95 new unless you can find an idiot to pay more.

[ObeyMyEgo]

I collect and I game.

I only have a few sealed titles. Every other game in my library I have played or have the intentions to.

Also like I stated. Wasn't looking to sell it. Honestly have someone willing to trade games I need for my Genesis collection.

As for the collectard thing. I get that. I wouldn't pay 200$ for a sealed game either. I dont even pay retail for newly released ps4 games. I'm that cheap.

But I came across that lot. I bought it for cheap. So it didn't hurt me to pick it up

Nobody here has any insight into the value of such a thing. We regularly rail at eBay prices. This community is about playing games and internal selling. Questions like "what is the value of x" go over about as well as a lead balloon, in part because nobody wants to answer a question like that, and in part because few here really know. We could probably tell you what a chip-only copy would be worth, but not sealed.

[PukeSter]

People on this forum get a little too worked up about community sometimes.

That said OP, if you want it that bad just do a penny auction on eBay, with a buy it now price if you want. You'll get exactly what money it's worth.

[Nazi NecroPhile]

But I came across that lot. I bought it for cheap.

You just bought them, so don't you know exactly what they're worth?

Based on completed ebay sales, it's worth ~$200, maybe more if you want to sit on a higher priced BIN for months (years).  You have your answer.

[ObeyMyEgo]

I paid 300 for them all. Only because he showed me actraiser sells for 270ish.

[Nazi NecroPhile]

So you bought it for maybe $50 and want to flip it for $300, yet you don't consider yourself a scalping d-bag? 

[Gentlegamer]

I'll give you $1 for SimCity.

Maybe when you are old enough to open your own bank account you'll learn what an actual investment is.

$300? Go fuck yourself, ya wannabe Bernie Madoff.

[grolt]

yo dudes i just got a killer deal on sealed games nobody plays. just wanted to try and boast about my deal hunting skillz before i ask about trading said game on the system we all love for a omg valuable game for a sega console. i could check ebay for sold sealed items but then i wouldn't be able to brag about getting all these games on the cheap. oh yeah it's my first post, obey lol

[SignOfZeta]

I'm surprised that gloat pic didn't have some '95 Jordan's and three $100 bills in it.

[ClodBusted]

M'ake me preggo

[ObeyMyEgo]

Not like that. A friend has thousands of games he got doing yard sales.

We looked up the price on price charting and the last one sold was 2013 I believe.

So was just looking for an accurate number. Since he wants to do a value for value trade.

[ClodBusted]

Not like that.

No making preggo?

[ObeyMyEgo]

I'm not even mad. I get where you guys are coming from. I'll take the abuse I deserve it in a way.

Legit was just looking for some help. I only recently got a turbo myself. Only games I have are splatterhouse and valis 2

Today I learned (or relearned) I really shouldn't look at the neo geo forums at the office. 

[ClodBusted]

EDIT: edited.

*sigh* Please don't repost that shit here.

[ObeyMyEgo]

Already know things I've said were fucked up. But the shitty part that isn't me. They also said I was obey my ego from twitter.  a black guy.

I won't fight because I already said my peace for that mistake

[ClodBusted]

*sigh* Please don't repost that shit here.

OK! My bad.

Thanks! I get that I shouldn't be surfing forums at all at work, but the last thing I need is a coworker to come in and see some racist flashing gif on my screen.

[ClodBusted]

Sadler, congratulations for your postcount exceeding 1000!

[geise]

If you don't know what it's worth you shouldn't have bought it.  Maybe you should go back to playing next gen games.

That post for over at neo-geo.com will make no one want to deal with you.  Just post a fucking price and be done with it.  Take your loss on your investment since you overpaid for basically everything in that lot.

[roflmao]

Legit was just looking for some help. I only recently got a turbo myself. Only games I have are splatterhouse and valis 2

Then you have 3 games. You are just refusing to open and play the third one, for maximum profits.

[geise]

Hey roflmao.  Haven's seen you in a while.  How are things?

[T2KFreeker]

Oh Damn! LOL

@OP, the crap you ran at NG.com alone leaves you in the dust here. If I were you, you might just want to crawl back into whatever hole you crawled out of and pretend you never even found this place. Crap like that doesn't give people warm and fuzzy feelings. As for you apologized, good for you, you said something entirely too stupid and ridiculous and people bashed you for it and made you feel like the Jackass that you are, so you apologized because you know you look like the Jackass that you are. Yay! Doesn't mean A.) People have to accept it, so stop saying "I already apologized", and B.) people have to like you and accept that you are a Racist, Homophobic Assclown that said stupid stuff and blew his cover. So please, stop acting like everything is okay and that everything is right as rain.

Lastly, what is the game worth? Hopefully nothing. I'd hate to see another flipper gain something cool out of being a heartless douche bag. I'm tired of seeing cool people getting screwed over or out of stuff by flipper douche's. It's worth what someone is willing to pay for it or trade for it, so instead of asking us, why not just ask your buddy what he's willing to trade for it because the end game is that the value would ultimately be at his discretion, correct? I'd laugh though if he decided it was worth a bag of popcorn and a punch to the face.

[CrackTiger]

Even if you ignore the biggotry, because after all, he apologized, that older thread still proves that he's the bad kind of game flipper. Even if he claims to only want to trade a sealed game to a pro game flipper.

What is it with noob gougers and "said my peace"? I've noticed this same misuse of language in at last two of them, maybe three. Maybe it's the same asshole or maybe there is some deeper connection...


...like, once these assholes say their *piece* they think they deserve "peace" but really it's only been a few hours and you've already said four dumb things in the same dumb thread that your dumb ass started. You aren't going to get any "peace" until you delete your account and go the fuck away.

There is a deeper connection - millennials and illiteracy...

[SignOfZeta]

You don't have to be literate to know that using idioms you don't understand the workings of is just like...pretending to talk. It's barely speach, more like an animal convincingly imitating a human. Like a cat using a toilet. Well, bad example, since that aparently works. More like those videos of dogs saying "I love you." The owner is delighted, everyone else is horrified or just puzzled.

Btw, I read some of the stuff at NeoGeo.com. Clearly he's a complete prick. Doesn't actually know what "decency" is, probably thinks the guys at NG.com are jealous of his hyper hella common SNES garbage in plastic wrap.

Talk about buying into a reality that already owns you, fuck.

[jlued686]

I never understood these "What's it worth" threads; well, at least most of them. What they're really asking is (usually): how much can I get for this? And, if that's the question, go to eBay and look it up. Christ, how hard is that?
