There's a store in my town called The Video Game Exchange.. They sell classic systems and games, etc... Anyway, I stepped into the place for the first time a few days ago.. I've been collecting for a while, but I just don't like the idea for spending real money for games.. I usually stick to thrift stores. Anyway.. I knew it was a bad sign when I see the owner has dread locks.. I look at the glass case to see what systems he has, and I noticed a Sega Master System.. I've wanted one for a while, but I didn't want to pay 20 bucks plus shipping. So I asked him how much it was.. He says "Uhm... Sega Master System.. 60 dollars".. I wanted to laugh, but instead.. I just said "Uh.. o..k" I look on the other side to look at his stack of loose NES games.. and I don't see anything I like.. and the prices were, ofcourse, ridiculous.. and then I noticed the Legend of Zelda gold cart for 50 dollars! Loose! Who does this guy think he is?! If that didn't make me dislike this guy even more, I overheard a conversation between him and some butch lesbian customer.. She was buying one of those shitty famiclones for 60 bucks (I pitied her).. and he was talking about how they are so great and much better than the official NES models. and he went on to say, he doesn't even sell NES model 1s anymore, because they're worthless... I wanted to stab him with a broken shard from his sealed Pac-Man fever 7" single... I've had the same model 1 NES since my birth, and it's still workin' like a charm..
Needless to say I left withou making any purchase (Except a Sex Pistols CD for 3.00 bucks..)
