This is my first find, how'd I do? :)

Great find considering the Zelda is an original round seal version. I'd be psyched to find Lunar!

Whoops, how'd I miss that one? Anyhow, I'm about to go hit a few places in about 30 minutes, wish me some luck!

[tholly]

nothing impressive...

just an N64 rumble pack for $2.99 ... at least now i have a set of 4, although chances of getting 4 people together and having them want to play N64 is about 0-1% chance

[-hellvin-]

Didn't find anything tonight. I stopped in at game zone since I had'nt been there in a while and he shitloads of colecovision stuff traded in. Very rare carts too....xonox carts, flipper slipper, wing war, bc II.

I told him to hold them for me but I dont know if it's gonna be worth it since he charges straight out of the dp guide. Maybe if I can trade in a bunch of junk I'll buy em but otherwise I'll probably pass.

I got a few ideas of some new places to hit tomorrow so I'm hoping for something lucky =D.
