Who would like to take over the MVS Price Guides?

[TonK]

I did what I needed to do.

Updated the cart prices and created the MVS kit guide.

I'm no longer following any market trends, so my input is useless at this point.

Looking for a dedicated member who knows his shit.

The few that I've asked have already turned it down.

Any nominations?

 

[mmsadda]

I'm willing to take over the cart price guide. I followed the market around 2000-2004, and have followed it again for the last year to year and a half.

I know some members disagree with me on some of the lower-value cart prices, but if I'm to do it, I'd be more than happy to take suggestions and go with a general consensus on any game's price, so long as it's reasonable.

[Xian Xi]

Judging from the last conversation in the other thread I would have to say no to you Collin.

[systmdfect]

I would have to disagree with putting you in charge mmsadda. It seems as though you wieght your input far more than other people's input.

 

[TonK]

I'd like Xian Xi to take it over.

But if anyone else has any interest, LMK.

 

[mmsadda]

XianXi would be a great candidate! Did he already turn it down?

 

[BigTinz]

How much does the job pay?

 

[Xian Xi]

I'd love to BUT I know I do not have that much knowledge of the pricing for the MVS kit guide. Maybe Wolf would be a better choice.

Wolf doesnt know pricing.

 

[Xian Xi]

Wolf doesnt know pricing.

Hmm. Besides you I really don't know many people who really know the proper pricing.

 

[TonK]

My top choices were NeoTurfMasta and Xian Xi.

Both have turned it down.

If you guys know anyone else who is well versed on the subject and is interested LMK.

I just dont have the time nor desire to continue updating.

 

[SetaSouji??]

I'd do it, all I do is fucking surf ebay at work all day.

 

[massimiliano]

thinking about Tomcat, he knows very well the matter.

 

[aria]

Whoever gets it will have some big shoes to fill.

 

[TonK]

I like tomcat.

See if he will do it.

 

[kernow]

The main difficulty is it being in US prices. I dunno I like tomcat also and he's generally alright on prices, but.. I've seen him selling an MS3 for 69 euros and then gone and bought one for £40, and then seen multiple others come up for £40 or £35 forever more.

Just abolish them, easiest way. I am usually spot on with estimations on bare carts over at AO, just after years of buying, selling, and watching ebay sales. Having a set list is a ballache as it needs constant maintaining. A 'whats it worth?' thread as a sticky is better as it can change from week to week and actively reflects the market current market better.

You want to take it over?

 

[kernow]

Not really.

 

[Lee Gray]

I hope whoever takes it over updates it regular when its needed

i have always liked price guides and stats

Another board I frequent handles it this way, pretty accurate!

 

[kernow]

Its a far better solution

 

[alphagamer]

Its a far better solution

Yeah, because more people maintain it, and document sales.

i nominate joe8.

he could price every game in terms of its relative worth compared to aerofighters 2.

for example. An unboxed mahjong controller would be worth 6 aerofighter 2 loose carts, or 3 aerofighter 2 complete kits.

You KNOW he'd use polls to decide whether or not to raise or lower prices rather than look them up.

So I guess my nomination is a no?
