That is suprising!!!!
« on: April 15, 2011, 09:40:19 PM »
SMB sells for iver $2500 on Ebay..

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220766428506&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT


Ive always had this game valued at around $1600.. i even have one here that i bought for my son.

Now had i known that i could have got $2.5K for it i would have snapped up the GTB Black Hole that was for sale on this forum for sure....

I did have a buyer for this game for $1500, but they fell shport of cash.. i wanted to sell it so i could buy the Class Of 1812... also on this forum.

My boy has outgrown SMB and its time to turn her over for another title... wish i had known i could have got this $$ for it,

Ive missed so many machines just sitting on this title

Agree Gav, $1,600 is what I paid for mine. Market is not the best at the moment too, certainly top dollar for the title. That's ebay for you - unpredictable. My son won't let me sell ours, very reliable game.

Everyone I know bids up their own ebay listings. Its become embarrassing.  @.@

You have to slleep at night, so a "Buy it Now" price, with "Make an Offer" is the fairest n most honest way to go with Ebay.

$2500 for a SMB. Gee thats cheap, given recent ebay prices, i thought it shld have sold for $15,000.00  %.% %.% %.% %.% %.% %.%     ^^^

I think think this machine will command more dollars due to the title and also the condition of the machine as well. You have your Mario/Nintendo fans out there that have wanted to own a Super Mario pinball machine and the price will also go a bit higher than normal if the machine is in good condition. I was watching this auction for interest and from the photos, I had a feeling it would sell for a bit more than your average Gottlieb.

Cheers!
