I picked this stuff up yesterday.
EB Games
Space Invaders (PS1, complete) - $3.50
K-Mart
Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition (GC, new) - $10
The K-Mart still had one sitting in the case, and the associate at the electronics counter didn't want to give it away, even though Nintendo isn't doing the GameCube promotion anymore, so I had him call the manager who priced it and sold it to me at $10. I still feel like I got hosed on the $10, but it's still cheaper than Ebay, EB Games or Gamestop.

Well, I think I've got the find of the week @_@ Please keep in mind that almost NONE of this is for sale and anything that is will be listed on the B&S or eBay, so PLEASE do NOT PM me asking for ANYTHING! My box is already too full of PMs!
Sorry I couldn't fit it all in less than 5 pictures. 99% of everything you see is mint and complete! The Earthbound looks like it just came off the store shelf :) And on the way home from buying that lot, I found that Bonk's Adventure in a random little shop too!
