Here come some pics, be ready :)
I haven't emptied the first box of games yet as seen in the first photo (think this is where all my sports games are hiding). I did empty out the other 2 boxes of games.

Sweet!!That's a lot of games..Congrats!!
How many boxes dit it all come in.
What are you going to do with the Consoles.?
.................................................. .............................
I have around 35 misc GENESIS consoles now that I've acquired in time.
A few work that I'm sure of the others I have no clue(no time to test)
I was thinking someday to just list the whole lot of them on Ebay..Just to get rid of them..
I'm just not looking forward to boxing it all up to ship. :/

came in 4 UPS boxes, HEAVY ones.
I'm sure I'll pack up a lot of the posarts games with the consoles and sonic games to sell out on ebay. That is, after I go through ALLLL of it, which might take quite a few days since I JUST finished installing a new heatsink (thermaltake silenttower, had to actually bolt it to the mobo, but DAMN quiet) and am gonna be playing EQ2 for a bit now ;)
Can;t wait to dedicate 3-4 hours to sitting down and diggin through it all though :)

01-25-2005, 04:24 PM
Those tower thermal heatsinks are nice...you've got a desktop form PC then? Anyhow, back onto topic...yikes! Lots and lots of games!
I can't begin to imagine how many of my shoeboxes that would fill...dozens...many dozens.

One word, "SE-GA!!!" @_@ That's a crazy lot of goodies right there. 4 boxes huh? I'm sure they were absolutely heavy.

Man, that's a lot of EA sports games.

You should make a maze out of the carts and charge admission.
Crush Crawfish
01-25-2005, 05:29 PM
Man, that's a hell of a haul..I sure hope you'll put some of the extra carts up for sale on here! Genesis rocks! :D
Ed Oscuro
01-25-2005, 05:32 PM
Man, that's a lot of EA sports games.
The auction says 500..whatever...non-Sports games; I doubt they got them all (isn't Toughman contest really just a sports game? Wrestlemania?) so even being cynical about it, I'd say the odd handful would be an avalanche here. Still, for that many carts, probably not such a terrible deal.
Iron Draggon
01-25-2005, 06:03 PM
DAMN. It must be nice to be able to drop $500 on something like that, as though it was nothing. I miss the good old days, when I had money like that.

01-25-2005, 06:09 PM
holy hell! That would be so fun to dig through all of that. I love getting slightly big packages, but that is just awesome! Nice price as well! I hope you got some good games in there! congrats!
Cauterize
01-25-2005, 06:15 PM
WOW! that is jsut amazing! Congrats!
I love the line in the auction : 652 Sports Games! heh!
U could always use them as objects to:
...wedge Doors
...ruin someones day by dumping them all thin their back yard
...errr.... actually come to think of it, there isnt much!
Congrats!

Started opening em up, there were actually 5 boxes, around 75 pounds each.
A VERY SURPRISING variety of games. I'm down to the last box (which does look like it's at least half sports) and I've only seend maybe 4-5 of each cart. I have as many dups of alisia dragoon as I do sonic 2, etc... Even the sports titles, I've only seen 4-5 maddens/sports talk so far total.
I'll probly finish up tomorrow and take some pics :)

Nice score man!
BTW, I liked how you didn't post about this until AFTER the games came. I know how it goes -- you want the shit in your hands before even talking about it. You don't want to jinx it or have some idiot lurker get jealous and email the seller "Hey you're getting ripped off! Don't send that stuff to him!"
Very smart. Have fun :D

Nice fuggin' score!
I could probs be interested in taking a loose Genny 2 off your hands...
Wow! I would have loved to have got that deal.
Just curious, but why didn't you pick them up since the seller was in MA?
jajaja

Damn... If I had found that I would have bought it too... then my wife would put my head on a pike... but you better belive my face would still be bearing a big ass smile! LOL
Have fun EQ... and try not to have dreams of being buried alive under all those genny carts :)
oh, man it seems to me like you bought a head ache.
When I purchased a stores atari section i hade a couple of bins of carts, probably like 400 games or more. Anyway it took me so damn long to clean and test those things, that I really started to hate atari. Eight months later there still some I havent tested yet! I hope you like cleaning carts other wise your going to be in collector hell for a while.
But other then the cleaning work that needs to be done its a pretty decent score.

I REALLY should have. would have saves a lot of money, BUT. They're almost in penn. they're so far west, would have been roughly a 5-6 hour drive each way, and that's just guessing, with no snow.
12 Hour drive, plus carrying cash, finding the place, dealing with people.... just wasn't worth it

Wow that was a HUGE lot! @_@
I like the coment someone made about the alcohol LOL
Worst part of a lot that size would be all the cleaning. I realize you'll make the money back in no time with reselling package lots, & individual games, but that's still a bit pricey for a find of the year type thread. :P Congrats to you though! I was expecting to see you posting a $20 find (http://members.cox.net/sumguy66/$20find.jpg), then bitching because you couldn't talk them down to $1 a game. ;)

Ha, I actually saw the same lot in the want ad about two months ago. I was even thinking about buying it myself, but for some reason changed my mind.

nice find on ebay
Sylentwulf
01-26-2005, 12:20 PM
Yeah I did put find in "" up there because it's ebay, it's huge, and not necessarily a find. But I'd have paid 2-3 times as much without a problem, can't believe it went that low.

01-26-2005, 02:13 PM
very nice haul
if you find an Action 52 box and manual, id love to buy them off you to make my lose cart complete (the only sega genesis game i have that isnt complete)
Djfinny
01-26-2005, 02:31 PM
Yea....
My company has blocked ebay for about 3 months now. If I had saw this I would have jumped on the bid wagon - and I'm in Boston so the pickup truck would have made the road trip.
For the record - GREAT FIND!! :)
