apart from ebay, what would that place be?
I'm probably going to pick up a rare Panorama model - it's new old stock.
it's been ages since I've been in the buying selling field so looking for some pointers.
cheers

I am thinking of reselling it. clearly. though I need to also have a clear idea of what it's worth. Panorama Donkey Kong circus, new and complete - box has some imperfections (dent/crease) but the flaps are present. the game itself is still in it's original baggy.
hate to put this out there this way like a money hungry noob, but whatever.

if you want top dollar ebay is the only real choice.

yeah you're right, just that right now for Argentines, we have all these restrictions when it comes to dealing internationally - I still have use of my pp account but I can't get my credit card to work on ebay.
so ebay is kind of off limits.
I'm just wondering what a fair price would be for such an item outside ebay - not top dollar necessarily. I know this is a subjective matter to some extent. anyway, appreciate the comment cdamm, thanks

nos is a tough thing to price as you dont see that pop often. i'd say at a minimum $175, but more likely in the $200 range. $250 is probably the ceiling.

yeah I don't know, I think I'll pass picking it up. but I've seen it on some rarity guide at 1200 dollars. it's too messy this business though.

I know. but it's like the 3rd or 4th rarest of all Game and Watches.

so there's no neo-geo.com equivalent where one can sell one's wares then?

try nintendo age then. but it can be a weird scene. especially if you are a noob there.

nintendoage forum, but they have pretty strict selling rules. I would have a hard time buying an expensive item like this from someone in Argentina without some kind of serious feedback.

Ebay is really your best choice if you want to see it reach high prices.

No, the price is correct. Expect to get at least 900€ for a complete Donkey Kong Circus, +/- depending on condition.
It is that rare. You will find more obscure and rare older games like Judge or Flagman for less (both silver series) which is funny.

Ebay. Offer the option to ship to Japan because if I remember correctly it was one of the games who weren't released there, might get you even an higher price.

Also there is gameandwatch.ch which is a forum focused on G&W although I am not sure about the selling conditions. They offer some overview function of G&W related auctions on ebay.

They got a Donkey Kong Circus in Mandarake Nakano for about 96k ¥ and it isn't even in the best condition.

You could try selling to Gamestop, I hear they are taking classic games and systems for trade now.
