I may be selling my GBA to my mate, I was wondering how much you lot thought I could charge him.

It's the GBA plus 5 games (Mario, MArio Kart, Tony Hawks 2, GT Advance and Konami Krazy Racers) and a carry case thing.

I was thinking about £150.

What do you reckon?

£150 is very excessive.

I'd go along with what Da Duck and Solskjaer have said. £100-£110 seems reasonable.

I reckon something like this:

GBA - £40
Mario Advance - £15
Mario Kart - £20
Tony Hawks 2 - £15
GT Advance - £10
Krazy Racers - £10
Carry Case - £5

That comes to......£115. Not quite enough to buy a GameCube, but you could get 2 games.
I still think that's a reasonable price for a mate!

damn, didn't line up right. Monospaced on the text input, but not on the display. Never mind.

£150? Properly second had, right?
Hmm, i'd price it up like this:


GBA ------------------- £40
Mario ----------------- £15
MArio Kart ------------ £15
Tony Hawks 2 ---------- £15
GT Advance ------------ £10
Konami Krazy Racers --- £10
...maybe think about rounding down a bit because there are so many racers, but...
carry case ------------ cancels out the rounding down.

Total: £105, maybe call it £100, usually sounds better, and if someone told me £105, i'd assume they expected me to haggle, and wanted £100 anyway.

Of course, i could be a fair way off the mark, but that's how i'd have done it.
Hope that helps.
