Open it! Open it! Be the first, smell the sealed goodness! You know you want to! :evil: ...and then I remember all those PCEngine Duo games that dropped $100 because I opened them. LOL

Give yourself a time period of say, 4 months. If you don't find one in the wild or a cheap one on ebay, open it and play your heart out.

Riding through North Carolina yesterday for work, I found Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle (DVD) and Sky Captain & The World of Tomorrow (DVD) for $5 each at Movie Time.

Then, this morning I found a mighty clean PSX with an RF switch and AV cable ($5), an NES Advantage (50 cents), a sealed Game Players: How to Win at Nintendo Games VHS tape (25 cents), a green PSX Justifier gun (50 cents) and an Interact PSPro gamepad (50 cents).

Sometimes, it just doesn't pay to wake up early on a Saturday morning...

I went back out with my dad and my sister to get some lunch. I went to this local fuzzy friends thrift shop called "the Barkin' Basement" I found a Cincinatti Pops Cd while digging in a bunch of cd's. At the front they have a display where they put their meager game selection. They do have a large amount of cd's in there(Which I will plan on digging through some time). I spotted a copy of Indiana Jones Desktop Adventures, a game I had been looking for for quite a while. They ended up charging me 81 cents for the game and the cd! :D I also went a Goodwill where I found a copy of Pilotwings for $1.99 which was a good deal for me because I had been wanting that game to play on my SNES.

OH. MY. GOD.

The Barkin' Basement! ROFL

Thanks, that made my day. LOL

EDIT:

When they rang you up and you paid, you should have responded with "WHAT A BARKIN'" and let out a "WOOF!". I bet the employee would have given you a dramatic thumbs up!

Flea Market..Went early,but not as early as planned.

I found something I have been looking for..
A Pachinko Machine.($40.00)..This one is Super Nice,No rust ,works and has a heavy container of Pachinko Balls and is set up with a 6V Battery.(I'll change that)
Plus it has a housing...I never find these with a housing..It's hinged...or balls or on this condition..
This thing is heavy..I had to wheel cart it to the van..
Everytime I have found these they looked like crap..I stepped in poop today finding this one so nice/like it is..(It's huge)It says Pachinko Palace N.Y.

Other stuff...
After
CosmicPinball in box
$5.00

5 SNES games $5
RoboCop Verses Terminator
Tom and Jerry
Unknown cart
Bugs Bunny Rabbit Rampage

N64 Deck with N64 Multi Game Adapter $5.00
I have no clue what the adapter is for/gave the deck to my dad.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v21/Chris1/2005_0709_223753AA.jpg

N64 power supply $1.00
PSOne Power Supply $1.00..I had grabbed this and while trying to entangle it from a mass of wires I placed my Soda down as I was kneeling into the bin.
A lady comes along and grabs the Power supply and starts pulling on it as to take it ..
My eyes popped out as she saw me doing this and was being nosey,,She wasn't trying to help yet felt I was getting something worthwhile so she needed to grab it..
I asked as she was pulling..Ehhh,Am I buying this or are you!!..She dropped it in a nasty look and said..Oh ok....then Sorry..
WTF I thought!!..She was a customer,she wasn't trying to help..She was just grabby..Little Snotty .... :angry:
:angry:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v21/Chris1/2005_0709_162554AA.jpg

We picked up two more Gum/ball Vending Machines..(same as mine below)..For $10.00 Each..from the same guy..Complete though these have regular M& M stickers/Mike & Ike and a Chicklet Gum..
I let me dad take these as I brought the doors home to fix,make keys work for the locks..
I'm getting two more machines next week from this vendor for spare parts..I want the bins...I may even sell them/depends...I only have room for one machine.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v21/Chris1/2005_0706_153927AA.jpg


I wish I knew an easy way to get these stickers off.?..they are really on there.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v21/Chris1/2005_0709_163216AA.jpg

A vendor I deal with a lot had 3 full bins and a bag of Mixed NES,Atari,Genny,SNES and N64 carts....some boxed ...
He wanted $150.00 for it all but I passed..Some games I had in my collection and some not..Though I buy lots I just didn't feel my turn around in selling this would of been fast enough....Too much work..

.................................................. ..

Though I don't like hitting the Airsoft gun dealer first ...we always do..I do that for my dad..
Again we were brought of his stuff to the back and we are becoming more of friends with this dealer and his family....Inviting us places,his store,more open talks....Just generally nice people..
My dad picked up a Gas Gold revolver for $185.00..and it's Super Nice..It was brought special today for my dad/special order..and for every $30.00 spent you get a free Uzi Spring Airsoft gun..
I picked up a $15.00 Spring Airsoft gun/black one below....(Just as a bang around gun for friends.)
From another dealer a small Ha-119 for $25.00 and my dad picked up a $4.00 Airsoft Spring...I was going to buy both,he had two as we passed this guy as we came in.
When we went back he sold one..I'll get one next week..(It's just for friends to fool around with here..$4.00 breakable)

Not a great weekend! Best game find was Pro-bloody-pinball - Fantastic Journey for PAL PS1. Bleh.
Did manage to find a pile of old official Ninty magazines (issues 5-20ish) which I'm looking forward to reading tonight though. Period game magazines are always fun and usually interesting.

Otherwise..not a bargain, not a classic (yet)...God of War PS2 - what a romp!

Hit the red tag bargain cart at wal mart today. For the first time in a really long time they had some good deals. I got...

(2) "Pelican" brand gamecube starter kits (controller, 6 ft. extension cable, 4 MB memory card)
(1) Nintendo brand GBA headphones
(1) Mad Catz brand "micro" clear controller for cube

3 bucks each

They had some more stuff, like third party metal GBA carry cases, Pokemon GBA carry cases, Nintendo brand GB/GBA game carry cases, more controllers, etc. but I couldnt justify spending any more money.

Got Little Mermaid, Dr. Mario and Dragon Spirit at the flea market. The girlfriend will be VERY happy that I finally picked up her two favorite NES games.

*is hoping that Dragon Spirit is one of the two favorites but HIGHLY doubts it* :P

not so much a find as an experience: someone had a box full of 2600 games at the swap meet, 50 or so, the most i'd seen at once in the wild for a while. all commons; had them all, but most of the carts had stickers on them with my first name written on. i kept looking for the quadrun with my name on it, but it was not to be...

Bought a used Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition today. Been looking for this one for a while. The manual has a few flaws and the case isn't too great (and the CD has a few scratches), but whatever, it's cool.
