I'm chuffed to have these in my collection now - took a while to get the deal sorted though!

Nah they weren't cheap at all - I paid £180 for the 2!

Bartman was £110 on its own - the most I've spent on a game! But well worth it to me as I've wanted it for a while and it's in top condition!

Ducktales 2 is also top condition too!
 
Ha ha I've seen it go for more than that so I didn't do too bad!
I wouldn't go as far as saying I'm getting carried away - if I was going into debt for the stuff I have then yeah I'd be getting carried away but I'm not?

I presume I'm missing something here.

At an online retailer named after a rainforest, you can get a Bartman NES game listed as 'Very Good condition' for $20.

Is it because the one you bought is sealed that has pushed the price up?

Also, I'm completely jealous of your retro collection!

Cart only and American you probably can like with a lot of things - the UK version of this game is not one you come across often! Probably looking around £40ish for the cart on its own! So complete really it's worth more than I paid for it!

Not far off mate - about £250-£300 for Mario Bros., I wouldn't sell Turtles 3 for a penny less than £150 as you don't see it often in that condition and about £150 for Zelda!

Wow, I thought Neo Geo carts were expensive.

Fun little question, just to see how deep the madness goes, what's the most you've ever paid for a single game.
My MVS Pulstar, with P&P came to £130 total.

For me as I did it was £110 but it's not the most expensive game I own?

I'm eyeing a NES game up in America and sorting a deal out and that's around £150 including shipping so that'll be a new record for me ha ha!
