Let me know? I was thinking of selling mine and getting a new car. What do you think you'd buy with the money you made from your neo sales also. <IMG SRC="smilies/loco.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/cool.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/crying.gif" border="0">

I wouldn't sell my stuff either, however my entire collection of all games (Neo and other) is probably exceeded the $10,000 mark by now, always hard to tell though.

Ohhh Silent_Scope is not going to like this topic. You asked so......>$10,000! Most of the value is in a handful of rare AES carts though; MOTW, Metals Slug X&3, Pulstar(2), Blazing Star, Last Blade 2, Neo Turfmasters, Strikers 1945!, Magical Drop 3, ect......... No NGFUSA stuff whatsoever though! <IMG SRC="smilies/rolleyes.gif" border="0"> Not bragging but you asked! <IMG SRC="smilies/smirk.gif" border="0">

I have kept an accurate record of my purchases and so far it has topped $6500. I imagine it will easily pass $10000 by the time I am done getting all the carts I want.

The thing is though that for me they are worth it. I genuinely enjoy getting my hands on a pristine mint cart every single time it happens. I know this sounds creepy to those who are not collectors.

How do you know I don't like this topic? <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">
Are you thinking I'll say something "bad" or "teasing"?

No way.....
My collection is shrinking now (Neo and others) and a lot of them are in brand new, sealed condition. I have no time to play those games plus I have no choice.

I can't live by playing/buying games, right?

My Neo collection only worth $800

I would have to say that too that it exceeds $10,000 easy and I would not sell it also. Probably close to $20,000, because I do not keep records.

It is probably refering to me. I do not brag, because it is a bad characteristic. All my post have been on-topic with the threads; you can check past post for proof. For example, this one <IMG SRC="smilies/tickled.gif" border="0">

Oh for heaven's sake maybe the ON. members are right! Peeps here are wound up to tightly. I wasn't refering to you NSX-T. Silent_Scope has often gotten a little riled up about collectors in GENERAL. Please don't start this again, I made the original post to kid Silent_Scope, not to get you two going again. JEZZZZZZ SORRYYYYY!

A billionty-three dollars! Naw, my collection, based on MSRP is probably at about 4,000 dollars. Now that includes games at face value I got on clearance, so a game I paid 5 dollars for in a trade is still valued at the 45 dollar cost of the origial. Book value? Who tha fuck cares?

Laserblast, I hear you. No problem at all.
I don't mind this type of topic but I'll say it one more time, I don't like collector and that's it.

My video game library keeps shrinking. Once I don't like the game, I'll sell it no matter how much I bought it originally.

Sometimes I just throw them into trash can if I can't sell them (PS Raiden Project; Turbo Raiden, Dead Moon, Air Zonk; Saturn US controllers; DC Dynamite Cop (JPN), Giga Wing (JPN).....)

My collection right now is worth. $200 that is what ive put into it, but its not even at my home yet!

SILENT: If you are throwing away those games, you can throw them at me! Especially any DC ones I enjoy both Dynamite cop and Giga Wing!

Youve got the nerve to say u dont like collectors, & in the same breath say u "throw away" games u cant sell???

Well thats as shitty as it gets.
At least collectors dont destroy games like you.

Ever heard of donating to charity or injured kids the games u dont want.

Throwing away is the shittiest thing ive heard in awhile.

There are plenty of injured/hospitalized children that would have appreciated em.

Maybe I'm worse than the collector, right?
I threw away games because I'm no longer interest in them. I'm just a gamer so I don't want to keep those games if I don't want to play them again. I'll start give games away if I can't sell them.

I don't think injured/hospitalized children want to play old video game like turbo or neo. And I don't think they've ever heard/owned Neo Geo system either.
