PAL NR-Reader how much is it worth?

Post by WoodyWoodpecker » Sun Dec 23, 2012 12:12 am

Picked this sucker up for 20€ on ebay a few weeks ago. It's in somewhat good shape (almost no scratches on the jewel, 2-3 bigger scratches on the case and bottomside, that's about it) and the Nintendo Seal isn't broken. Since it can only play special NR-discs and pretty much nothing else, I was wondering how much these things are actually worth.

You got a great deal there WoodyWoodpecker

Recently there were three units going for 70 euro each over at ASSEMbler Games and that was considered a good price - in fact there is a boxed version there right now for 250 euro and some NR discs are also for sale.

@megalomaniac: Not sure if I'll sell it, but if I do, you'll be the first to know ;)

@wii_HD: were those PAL or NTSC-versions? Did they come with any other accessories?

20 euros? thats a steal.
i'm surprised nobody on assemblergames found it, hehe

but yeah 75 - 90 euros seems to be the normal going rate for unboxed ones right now. getting cheaper and cheaper every year.

i also removed your last photo since it was showing the internal serial number. you never know.
please search before you ask - a lot has been discussed already!

Thanks liquitt, didn't even think about that pesky serial number :lol: .
I think the reason that nobody found it before me is because I tend to lurk around the "newly listed"-items a lot. If anything interesting pops up, I'll shoot the seller a buy-it-now offer and most of the time they accept. :twisted: It's kind of douchey, but sadly it seems like the only way to get somewhat acceptable prices on ebay.
