Well, I'm back from Hawaii. I didn't find much in the way of used video games, but what I did is about to be sold here VERY CHEAP. :)

It doesn't seem that Hawaii thrift stores get a lot of video games in general. There's a few Salvation Army stores, Goodwill stores (although the one I saw was closed) and if any of you are down by Kona there's a place called Treasure Island Thrift or something. It's in the phone book and now they have two locations. It's 7000 square feet. Pretty big.

Here's two pictures I took that reminded me of video games:

I don't know if you can see it that well, but there's a hiking or donkey trail that goes up the mountain and zigzag's. It instantly reminded me of Spike's Peak for the Atari 2600. :)

That one reminded me of the fireballs in Donkey Kong, so I bought it.

In the Gamestop out there they had Pac-Man wrist bands and a Pac-Man belt buckle made out of metal. Looked pretty cool.. was the maze with dots, and ghosts and everything.

Tonight.. I have a great idea too! I'm going to sell it all in exchange for Mesata! How's that for cool/free?!

FYI - As of right now, using meseta to "buy" real items is NOT acceptable on the boards.

Why? It's his stuff. I could see the problem if it was a topic where someone was offering meseta for tanglible items. Then the boards would just get cluttered with requests no one was ever likely to respond to. But the other way around should be fine.

Aww.. is there a rule posted against this anywhere?!

I think if someone needs a Gameboy Game Genie which I paid 50 cents for and if they want to offer me like 100 or 200 Mesata is fine. I'm the one who paid for the unit and will pay the shipping costs to the person.

You could just accept meseta "donations" and be very appreciative :evil:


Seriously, I don't see a problem with selling items for meseta. It's not as if someone is going to be selling anything of any real worth just to put a .gif under their title :roll:
