...Where do you guys go to collect this stuff?! (NES stuff in particular)?

In my expedition to collect NES stuff over the last year or so (which is hard being only 17 and making $7.50/hr on a part time job, mind you ;) ), I've pumped ~$450-500 into my NES collection, only having around 30 complete games, and around 140 or so games total (a good bit being my games from childhood).

The problem is, since I live in the suburbs (I.E. In the middle of no where), I have no idea where to go to find NES stuff (except the local game stop which has pretty outrageous prices....and for the cart only) Except for E-bay, which is pretty hard a lot of the time to find a good deal on.


so...from collector to collector, where are some good places to go? I need all the help I can get :D

Thanks.

If you hunt around, particularly in the "Classic Discussions" forum, you'll find lots of answers to your question, but given the traffic tonight, you may want a few quick shortcuts.

So without further ado, here are two very good threads for the collector looking for a tip, a place to go, some experienced advice:
