Not a find so much as just something I picked up today at the mall. EB had 3 pro-owned copies for Culdcept PS2 for $11, I picked up one copy that still had the security stickers on it. So it may as well have been new. (:

Not Much.
A Sega 32x Complete in the box but not sealed- 15.00
3 little Gameboy gamecases- 9 cents each
Pole Position Board game opened complete in box- 2.00
And I convinced a friend of mine to give me all his old atari 2600 games (30 of them i believe) for 10 bucks but havent got them yet. He would of gave them to me free but i didnt want to rip him off totally, plus he has a couple other systems that he might want to get rid of eventually, so i want to make a good impression on him.

I went back and got that 128k. It is alot nicer than one I passed up on for $18 for just the computer. This one is the computer (model no. M0001), keyboard (model no. M0110), mouse (model no. M0100), and a printer (model no. A9M0303). No smoke discoloration, powers up, but it can't find an OS. The problem may be either a dead battery, or it has no OS. I have some tinkering to do... :D

Yeah I "found" some stuff at CGE. The money in my wallet also "found" a new home. Nothing to write home about, but a couple of uncommon O2 carts and a bunch of free schwag.

I FINALLY got a 2600 today ("darth vader" model). It came with 3 joysticks, a pair of paddles, and a keypad for that "Star whatever" game, with the overlay. Also around 10 or so games, all rather common. And no power supply or RF switch. I can do without the RF switch, but I need to find the transformer. Anybody know where I can buy one?
Oh, there was a catalogue and a manual or two as well.
And a nice carrying case (just a generic zip up bag for a laptop or something).
All for $20.
Seperately, I got Madden 2005 for $10 by trading in games at gamerush.

Really though, credit for that goes to Aussie2B for hooking me up with someone that isn't as pricey as Rinkya when it comes to shipping VG stuff off Yahoo Japan. Hell, even on Yahoo Japan you couldn't find any complete ranma GB games, let alone the entire set in one shot. I'm rather pleased :D

Hehe!
Well, since it's a utility and not a game, the value is probably not too high, but in rarity term, it's rare (how rare ? i can't say, i'm not a Gameboy expert).
That kind of stuff probably didn't sell very good back in the days.

flea market economics:
paid $6 for a complete NES star trek 25th anniversary in excellent shape from one person.
paid $10 combined for a top loading NES w/hookups and 1 dogbone & 1 regular controller, and a boxed akklaim double player wireless controller set, both in excellent shape, from another person.
