Old Nintendo Car Boot or eBay?
~cleo~
Posts: 583 Forumite
I have an old nintendo 64 pokemon version, 2 controllers, rumble packs with a pokemon game - not boxed and 2 other games which are boxed
been looking on ebay and prices when u consider postage as heavy item are quite low £10-£22 + £8 -£10 P&P i know its a old console but would i get more at a car boot sale? and should i sell the 2 other games individually as these go on ebay for £2-4 each
any advice appriciated, really just want to get rid of the thing but in the quickest easiest way

I'd sell the games seperately as there are some collectors out there for them.
I'm not sure though about the best place to sell the console.

AT a recent carboot I got £15 for my N64 and that was with 8 games if I had listed the games seperately and the console on ebay I think I could have easily doubled what I got at a carboot!
If you've got time to list it ebay will give you a better return0 -
You could try Gamestation and see what they offer you in store credit against something else you want to buy in the shop as they tend to keep a lot of retro games / systems.
Don't know how much they would offer but they offer better prices than Game0 -
Yeah, Gamestation is pretty good for old consoles, you get similar or more amounts to ebay, but no fees, postage and hassle.
Ive got about £150 of credit note by trading in old consoles from when i used to collect them (usually from car boots!).0 -
Have you looked into selling it on Amazon?Nevermind the dog, beware of the kids!0
