I was wondering if anyone has used some websites to purchase SNES or any legacy games in general. I have one called DKoldies.com They have some the games I am looking for and at a decent price. However I am concerned about the condition of the games. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Ebay, Amazon, Craigslist. You could try yardsales, thrift stores, and flea markets too. Those are usually WAAAAY cheaper than gamestores or websites cus they usually dont know what old games can be worth............unless youre the Goodwill right by the used gamestore and try to price match them.......God I hate that GW...sorry about getting off track.

The best places to buy older games is easily

Estarland.com and Amazon.com

I have baught over 20 games from estarland and everyone of them is in perfect condition. Systems I bought were SNES, Genesis, PS1 and NES.

Most online retailers charge too much for their games and consoles so I typically don't bother with them. The best website to find good prices on retro games is Ebay if you know how to look; speaking of SNES games, I recently found Super Mario RPG for about $20 on Ebay.

I buy a lot of games off ebay. I like being able to see the game I'm purchasing. I never buy from anyone with a stock photo.

estarland.com A little higher than used prices on ebay but overall games are in much better condition.

eStarland is way overpriced, I wouldn't recommend them. If you absolutely have to have a game and can't find it anywhere else, then they're a last option, though, because they have a pretty big selection and you can usually get what you're looking for as long as it's not uber-rare.

I'd try the usual suspects, first, they usually have the best deals:

  • Your Local Craigslist Website
  • eBay
  • Half.com
  • Amazon

Always pay attention to details in the description and pics if there are any, be sure to ask questions before settling on anything if you aren't sure about it, look for established sellers, and never buy from someone with a bad reputation. You should be okay.
