# Contra: sold-price estimates (nes)

Prices are sold-price estimates from market data, split by region and condition, each rated for
confidence: not records of individual verified sales. "Sealed" reports listing claims, never verified factory authenticity.
They're a guide, not an offer: a game is worth what someone pays for it, and shops, markets and local sales can be higher or
lower. Condition, photos and the seller's reputation move a price within the range (p25 to p75).
A boxed (CIB) price spans the box's condition: p25 ≈ a worn box (tears, stickers, crushing), median = typical, p75 and up ≈ an
excellent box. The box here is a cardboard box (pal), a cardboard box (ntsc), a cardboard box (ntscj).

| region | tier | median | p25 to p75 | n | confidence |
|--------|------|--------|---------|---|------------|
| ntsc | cib | $149 | $113 to $175 | 37 | high |
| ntsc | loose | $35 | $34 to $38 | 17 | high |
| ntsc | sealed | $1,000 | $850 to $8,500 | 17 | good |
| ntscj | cib | $239 | $176 to $300 | 16 | high |
| ntscj | loose | $53 | $51 to $55 | 4 | guess |
