How to Get an Accurate Quote

  1. List every game title + condition (Disc only / Case+Manual / Sealed).
  2. Check **PriceCharting.com** (Loose / Complete / New) and **eBay Sold Listings** (filter: Sold, Last 90 days).
  3. Sum individual values → **Bundle Discount 15–25%** (buyers expect bulk discount).
  4. Sell high-value games (Tier 3) **separately** on eBay/Mercari. Sell console + commons locally (FB Marketplace) to avoid shipping risk/fees.

Example: Console ($90) + GB Player+Disc ($110) + WaveBird ($90) + 2 OEM Controllers ($40) + 2x 1019 Cards ($60) + Action Replay ($60) + Mic ($20) + 10 Commons ($250) + 4 Rares ($800) = **~$1,520** parted out vs **~$1,100** as bulk lot.
