Can't beleave no one has started one for this week end yet.
From a local thrift:
Box of NES stuff for $7.00:
2 NES systems
4 controlers
2 RF switches
NES Advantage controler
Zapper
21 NES Games.
Off topic but some what related from a Yard sale:
Two boxes of very old computer stuff for $2.00
Looks like Late 70's computer kit stiff, you this was when you did not buy a computer like a Commodore 64 but a kit and built it your self. I am still researshing but it looks like I have parts for more than one computer:
Blue metal case with label ELF II
Blue metal case with keyboard in it labled as a ASCII keyboard
Bare Circute board on wood blocks labled ELF II, Has an RCA 1802 Processor which I think is the same one used in the RCA Studio II.
Two Circute boards Made by Intergrated Computer System with lots of Intel chips on them
If anyone knows anything about early computers I would love to know more about these things.

Got 10 NES games for $15 bucks:
Gold Zelda
Mafat Conspiracy
Burai Fighter
Infiltrator
Yoshi's Cookie
Loopz
Donkey Kong Classics
Shadowgate
Faxanadu
Skate or Die
The only bummer was that I found when I got home that the Gold Zelda had a piece of the case broken off near the bottom. Circuit board is fine and plays well, but a bit of a downer. A good mix of games for my trade/sale list anyway.

Genesis controller $3
Genesis 3rd party controller no price tag (shoulda bought it)

Also found a new (to me) game store- Game Cauldron in Roseville, MN. Good selection- a few Atari 2600 BOXED CARTS up to PS2/Xbox. Big tables of boxed & loose Genesis & S/NES. Decent prices. Clean, well-organized, & the clerk was friendly & knowledgeable. If he's reading this- "I'm impressed!"

I went to the Raynham Flea (MA) and was floored by the unreasonable prices! I saw Madden 99 (PS) for 19 bucks!!! Holy Crap! This one guy had a really impressive spread with consoles and games for about 6 different systems but his prices were terrible. He had a Dreamcast console without any wires or controllers for $35 and most of the games were more expensive than at the GameStop a block away. There was another guy there with NES games loose all for over 10 bucks. WOW. I almost bought an Intellivision II and 4 games for 15 bucks. It was in the box and 2 of the games were complete. However when I took the console out, both controllers were wrapped in yellowed tape and the console had about 15 years of dust and grime on it. I'll pass.
Stay away from this dump. I guess I'm stuck with Ebay and these forums :( .
