How much would one go if you had 5 games, 2 controllers, zapper, and even the original box to boot with it?

I have one with the original box and I know at least 1 of the games is considered "rare" as it was part of some contest thing.

So I was just wondering, because ebay is showing NES' with original boxes much cheaper than ones without it (I'm comparing number of games and condition of system with mine as well, btw). That has me puzzled, because usually when anything still has the original box, it usually makes the price 2 or 3 times higher automatically.

This is more based on what you would know and how much you would offer, as I am rather curious about it.

I want to try to get the most for it, ya know? I quit putting things on eBay because it's been proven to me to be more of a profit loss than anything.

Your best bet would be to go on Ebay and search.

I would personally buy one for about 150.

Treasure Master, I think?

The reason why I put in quotes, is that I'm not even sure if it's considered rare, but was only told.

You wouldn't happen to know how to find out how rare an NES cartridge can be, would you?

That might sweeten the deal if you sell the NES on eBay, but you most likely won't get more than $30 for the whole thing.

That's whats so weird about it. Without the box, I could probably get more out of it-- on ebay.
