I'm not sure if this is the place to post this, but to heck with it. I'll post it anyway.

I am currently residing in Iowa. I know, cold weather, corn, all that good stuff. I love Iowa, I really do. Except for its lack of flea markets (That I am aware of). Maybe I'm just a noob, but the only one I can hunt down is a monthly flea held at the State Fair grounds. I guess my question is do any of you live in Iowa? And if so, where do you hunt down your classic games?

Lack of flea markets would be a big bummer. I have found almost ALL my good finds at flea markets. I have gotten two NES protos, two 2600 protos, and a Gold NWC all at flea markets. Plus other good finds like Bubble Bobble 2, Panic Restaurant, etc. all for CHEAP.

I have found some good boxed games at garage sales. I would check those out.
