Wall-e. he is missing the remote control.
Works great when you turn him on
He moves around and talks. 4.00 at a garage sale

I got a black gamecube 2/ two controllers (1st party), a microphone, a white mem card and a disc only copy of Harvest Moon - Magical melody for $25

C128 w/ system disks and powersupply, but no disk drive to test it, also for $25

not horrible for restarting my collection

Same ole at flea markets,I grab something and here comes the “Gotta See”what he’s got..
The vendor was busy so I held it in hand while people looked over my shoulders..it’s been on the table all day,not a good sign as the price must be high..
As the vendors gabbing I’m thinking in my head..What’s he going to say,$25.00..30-40..No way it’ll be $10-15
..the inner screen looked Baked as if the LCD melted solid from heat..It had batteries in it,I spun them and got nothing..

He turns and says $200.00...I say HUH?..He says on ebay they sell for $250.00 all day and in the box they are $800.00..OKAY..
The vendor next to him says,Well you can’t play with the box right..I laugh and carefully put it down..I asked does it work,He says yes but he didn’t put new batteries in it..(for 200 you can’t put batteries in it..(& the dollar battery guy to his right)
I HATE when vendors hit me with Ebay prices..
I’d had thrown $50 on it as is...I took the picture later as it sat till closing time ..
Good luck to other pickers if you get it cheaper..just make sure to test it..


Saturday..This stuff was a joint pick=up between friends..Stuff I sell..

I also wondered... shouldn't they be merged or something?

I would if I was a Mod.. and to Respect both topic creators I'd try to put both their names as the topic Creator.

I do prefer the topic to be Stickied to the top per month like it is....It's the main topic every month and deserves it.
