I don't know about this one, but I would be happy to make another one for you. I kind of want to keep this one, for you know, sentimental reasons. :)

not speaking for erlx but for me anyway, costs are more than that, depending on what materials you can find or already have and can spare such as ribbon cable, then it could be less. ebay snes mini are expensive

SNES mini- $30-50
screen 5in- (psone) $30-40 or (zenith) $15-20
components leds, wires, resisters etc... - $30
case- $10
commision bonus- ???

just a estimate and varies, i paid $50 for snes mini and $40 for psone screen and made custom case, i spent about $150 on materials

Yes typical cost for building a portable SNES is around $120 to $150, although it could easily be more if you're not able to find any good deals on parts.

I don't think I could reasonably sell this one and make it worth my while. I haven't been able to find good deals on my supplies and its has cost me $120 just for the screen and the SNES. Including the other supplies, this has cost me nearly $200. Next time ill be more savvy and not waste as much money.
