Do these games sell well?
I might sell my big box games if I thought they were worth a decent amount.

Depends on the game really. Even then, prices compared to retro console games does not even come close.
At best your usually looking at $50 AUD ($38.82 US) for the more in-demand stuff. $30 AUD ($23.29 US) for the less popular.
To compare, Secret of Mana on the Super Nintendo is worth about $120. And that's just for the cartridge.

I got around $45-95 for mine. Uncharted Waters being the most rare and also the one that happened to be in best overall shape (manual and poster was completely unused/untouched).. It did take quite a while to sell though, some took 2 months, i did not use auction but a fixed price.

I burned all my big game boxes a few years back, in a ritual to grant me amazing gamer skills. AND IT WORKED! :cool:

Practically all my remaining gamer boxes are RPG ones, in particular Ultima IV (which I bought after the fact, since I got started with U5) to Ultima IX. As sad as it is, I cherish those, though the ginormous Ultima IX - Dragon Edition is mainly there for completeness' sake. I do still have a few shelves' worth of DVD cases, but at some point I'll go through those, see which ones I've got on Steam and probably chuck most of the others.

DVD movies are worth bugger all. $5 max. Still worth selling rather than just throwing out though. For TV show DVDs you can usually get away with charging $10.

Not movies, games. DVD cases.
Anyway, any DVDs I know I won't be watching again I pass on to others; the ones I keep are the ones I might rewatch.

I think the most 'valuable' game I have is a sealed Ultima Underworld 2 big box. I've got lots of games from that era, but mostly ones I played the hell out of.
Are they worth selling in lots or should they be sold individually?

Individually.

I dumped a load of big box stuff years ago and wish I hadn't now. I didn't even keep my Thief 2 box, which I recall was quite nice.
All I've got left is the Oblivion special edition box with the map and coin.
