A1-condition complete-in-box copies of Kirby and the Forgotten Land trade for $35 on CartridgeBond, approximately 133% more than GameStop's $15 trade-in offer. Prices are researched against eBay sold listings and PriceCharting data, then locked in for both buyer and seller before any meetup.
The headline number isn't the take-home number. eBay charges 13-15% in fees plus shipping. GameStop's trade-in is store credit, not cash. Facebook Marketplace asking prices look high but rarely close at full ask. Here's what an A1-condition copy of Kirby and the Forgotten Land clears across the major options:
| Platform | You take home | Trade-offs |
|---|---|---|
| CartridgeBond | $35 cash | Locked price, no fees during beta. Local meetup or shipping. |
| eBay (after fees) | $23 - $24 | Photo uploads, listing management, 13-15% in fees + shipping. |
| Facebook Marketplace | ~$27 typical | No buyer commitment. Lowball offers, ghosts, door renegotiation. |
| GameStop trade-in | $15 store credit | In-store only. Credit, not cash. Most convenient option. |
CartridgeBond's $35 locked price is approximately 133% more than GameStop trade-in. eBay can match or exceed it, but the time cost of listing management often eats the difference.
Forgotten Land is the first true 3D Kirby and was a critical and commercial hit. Strong family-friendly appeal. Trades steadily in the mid-$30s.
Kirby and the Forgotten Land is a platformer title from Nintendo, and a 4-year-old release that has held value. At a locked CartridgeBond price of $35, buyers save approximately 42% off the original $59.99 retail. This makes A1-condition used copies one of the most cost-effective ways to add Kirby Forgotten Land to a Switch library.
The Star-Crossed Worlds DLC is post-launch content - some buyers want to know if it's been purchased (it's tied to account, not cartridge). Beyond the game-specific notes, A1 condition on CartridgeBond means the cartridge is in the original case, plays without errors, has no deep scratches affecting gameplay, and the label is intact. Sellers who can't meet these standards are filtered out before matching.
Pick your timeline (now or up to 90 days out), confirm A1 condition, and we match you with a verified buyer or seller at the locked price. No haggling, no flakes, no inbox to babysit.
If you're trying to actually clear an A1-condition copy of Kirby and the Forgotten Land, here's the practical ranking by total take-home value minus time and risk:
Locked price of $35, no fees during beta, A1-verified buyers. Submit in 60 seconds, matched in 48 hours, meet up locally or ship nationally. Highest cash-equivalent return for least effort.
Potential $23-$24 after fees. Requires good photos, accurate description, listing management, and you'll absorb 13-15% in fees plus shipping. Returns are buyer-friendly, which can sting.
Asking prices look high but rarely close at ask. Expect lowball offers, "is this still available?" spam, ghosts, and door-side renegotiation. Best for buyers who don't mind babysitting an inbox.
$15 in store credit. Most convenient if you want a new game from GameStop anyway. Cash value of credit is closer to $9 if you're not buying GameStop products.
