Weekend Finds 9/11-9/12

[boatofcar]

Had a pretty good week this week. Through trade and sale at AA and DP, I managed to collect a good bit of boxed Activison 2600 games.

http://homepage.mac.com/johnshawler/.Pictures/Photo%20Album%20Pictures/2004-09-10%2020.34.55%20-0700/Image-EADDD9B403A311D9.jpg

I also bought a big lot of complete NES games to get 1 (Clu Clu Land).

Clu Clu Land isn't in there, I put it with the rest of the black/silver box NES games. I'll take an updated picture of those shortly :)

I also (finally) got a Stelladaptor, so I've been playing some Atari computer goodness on my G5. Plus I met a girl who shares my love for They Might Be Giants and Belle and Sebastian. All in all, a good week :D

EDIT: If you're interested in any of those NES games, meander over to the buying and selling forum ;)

Congrats..Nice finds..

[Videogamerdaryll]

He also had 215 loose NES carts that he sold ALL for $1.00 Each today all throughout the morning.....(not one left)
He called me early this morning..but,I didn't have $200.00 so I didn't ask for them to be held...I can't buy everything..(I sure hope I didn't miss anything RARE..)



What? Why didnt you have hinm hold them so you can at least look through them? :angry: Nice deal thouh

Basically with this guy it's an all or nothing deal....It's either I take all/half or nothing..Blindly..
He wasn't willig to read them off due to them being packed...and being busy.
So I said I'd check them out ay the flea..
He had sold all of them before I got there..

With him ..systems are easier..
He tells me he's got this system/how many etc....Or if he has a lesser amount of games he'll tell me what they are..

I'd say 99%..I missed out on something good/rare in those NES carts.

[Ed Oscuro]

Hmm, nothing here. Don't really have money for stuff, though I bought some books @ Goodwill.

Well this week was almost a total washout. I haven't been able to go booting this week because of the weather and other commitments and was starting to get withdraw symptoms.
