Selling my NES

    My Videogame collection is starting to become very large. This wouldn't be a problem if it weren't for the fact that I'm oversea's in Canada, and will someday have to go back to Ireland. I've been thinking about what I might have to sell on, and it seems the NES is on the cards.

    I bought this NES, which comes in it's originally packaging (it's the Action Set with Light Gun and Mario/Duckhunt) at a Flea market for about $40, which was a steal. I've since acquired a few games - Super Mario 3, Castlevania I & II, Metal Gear, Robocop, Bases Loaded and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. So it's a nice set all together.

    However, the control deck doesn't read games very well. I'm considering getting this repaired, I know a place that does it, and the cost is reasonable. So if I do, I'll sell it on....and I'm thinking of putting it on Ebay or maybe just Craigslist. I'd like to make a profit on this, as I did spend about $100 altogether on the machine and game, but I don't want to really rip someone off. I know if I get it repaired, I should be able to charge more, because it's life will have been extended considerably. So here's the question, how much would you pay/how much should I charge?
