As for the video, i now own two of them and havent even watched a single one... Might be worth someone ripping it to Avi/Mpg or something for reference/documentiations sake...
That's a good idea. My dad has a TV tuner on his computer. How much do you want for the video? We can talk later. ;)
Edit: I may as well say this while I'm here. I got a Half Life 2 PC strategy guide from Gamestation for 99p. I had a rummage through their retro games bin but I either had them or they were crappy sports games.

I just got back from the thrift store where I got a complete boxed SNES with two games for $10.
Finding boxed systems is always a bonus and I needed the box for SNES.

Went over to GameStop today and found Taito Legends (http://www.gamestop.com/product.asp?product%5Fid=646515)! It's only $4.99 new now so I just had to pick it up, although I didn't know they had this at all before.
Two other things I got were at Sears. A pair of ESPN sun glasses and audio cables to put on my LCD player because I've been using my NES AVI cables since I got it. :P

So I decided to run by the pawn shop on my way to work and well, got some pretty cool stuff and nice deals. I really like the Atari find I grabbed. :)

Gauntlet Legends (L) $1 - nice condition
Genesis:
Samurai Shodown (L) $1 - fair
Game Gear:

Dreamcast:
Illbleed (C) $1 - very nice
F1 World Grand Prix (C) $1 - great condition
Finally, a 2-disc DVD set of Unbreakable for $5 complete and in pretty nice shape. It's one of those Vista Series releases so it's got a really nice case. I'll upload pictures tonight, especially of Crazy Climber. :D

Picked up some NES games for $1 each at a few thrift shops. Too bad Werewolf didn't come with the comic book...
Werewolf (w/box)
Kung Fu
Super Spike V'Ball
Track & Field
Double Dribble
Also got Triple Play Baseball (PC) for $2. My favorite PC baseball game ever, seems I misplaced my old copy somewhere in my house and I've been dying to play it for a long time now.
The mailman also dropped off Sonic R and Sonic 3D Blast (both CIB) that I bought off eBay.

Did a late night run for some food and Walmart and stumbled across 2 movies I had to grab in the "2 for $11" bin.
http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c196/cyberfluxor/IM001722.jpg
Mortal Kombat & Super Troopers.
I also found that nifty chair for $30 (I round up). They are REALLY nice and I may buy a second one later down the road and stash it for when I move out and use them as my gaming chairs. Don't know yet but damn it's a nice gaming chair!
Then some shots of my Crazy Climber game:

The top lable does have a lump in it and I'm not too worried about it. You'll have to lift up one of the glued down ends to get rid of it or glue it back down, any ideas if anyone has some? It's in overall great shape obviously. :)

Real Sports Football
Berzerk
Street Racer
Basketball
Real Sports Football/Soccer
Star Raiders
Starmaster
Super Challenge Football
Super Challenge Baseball
All for 2600 if you could tell, and they were only .50 cents each, loose of course. Left and label less one behind, along with a few I already had. The girl at the counter said the same dude brought all of those in on three different occasions.
Also picked up The Decemberists "Picaresque" for $2 there. Cd is mint too.
And I got DBZ Sagas and Curcit City for 9$.
Pretty good day.

I've had some decent luck yesterday and today, but the finds aren't quite as substantial as I thought when I was buying them:
Sealed Pac-Attack for SNES $15
Sealed Super Tennis for SNES $3.75
cart only Bible Buffet $5 (I've been looking for this for my collection for years--I never thought I'd find it in the wild)
Sealed NiGHTS Into Dreams for Saturn, with the 3D controller $30
mint complete Silpheed for Sega CD $3
mint complete Alundra 2 for PS1 $9.50
cart only, heavily stickered ex-rental Metal Marines for SNES $32.50 (it's cleanuppable, but last time I checked eBay these were going for $40-50, and now they're going for $30-35. Whatever; it's for my collection anyway)
I got some other crap, too, but I'm not sure it's worth mentioning. Hell, I'm not sure any of the above was worth mentioning.
Also, the store I bought the sealed NiGHTS at has mint complete copies of Panzer Dragoon Saga and Dragon Force, two games that I really want (of course), for $150 and $100, respectively. Prices are marginally high, but I want them and trust the seller (I'd much rather buy them from him a little overpriced than have to deal with eBay), so I might go back for them, if he still has them.

Last day of the BX sale :(
(all new/sealed)
Bard's Tale (Xbox) - ~$1.85 or so
Killer 7 (PS2) - $5
Phantom Dust (Xbox) - $5
Chronicles of Riddick (Xbox) - $5
Batman Begins (Xbox) - $5
The Suffering: Ties That Bind (Xbox) - $5
Phantom Dust, Killer 7, and Chronicles of Riddick were all duplicates of games I already have, but I thought I'd give them to some friends as little freebies.

Which reminds me... there's a bit of ink writing on the disc itself I need to get rid of, but aside from that, it's all in great condition, the stickers came off easily and I had no gunk to remove.
Bizarrest thing was the guy behind the counter whom I paid knew of the game's rarity and value. Maybe store policy prevented him from snagging it himself?
Found a nice lot on craigslist...
A Genesis with power base converter, ps1, and NES all with cords, controllers, etc., with a combined total of 24 games, most loose with manuals. He even threw in a FF2 and FF3 SNES with manuals and maps that he never mentioned having, for free. :-P Also some assorted extra manuals for various systems. Paid $75.

One vendor had such a large pile of loose Genny,Gamegear games that it was overwelming.(like a mini mountain)..So many titles that I don't own..
Way to many games to look through....
Ohh.Yea,at the flea market we passed up a yellow running/chopper like big pocket bike for $150.00..(I don't ride the bigger types)
The guy wanted $250.00 but was willing to give it to me(since I know him/deal with him for $150.00)..
We could not get it started at first(he flooded it):..I kept pulling the starter cord up and hard over and over, the guy leaned over and BAM I hit him right in the face..
I was like,are you ok..he was in shock,and said no!!..He said you shouldn't be racing pocketbikes you should of been a boxer..lol

Genesis Altered Beast (Complete): $2
NES Championship Bowling : $2.09
PS1 Theme Park (Unfortunatly, no manual :(): $2.50
I passed on a japanese disc only NBA Power Dunkers 2, also for $2.50, as I'm not much of a basketball fan. Saw some 3DO disk only games at Goodwill as well; was looking for the console, hoping that everyone passed over it because they thought it was a VCR or something.

Well, back once again with another nice set of items I found over the weekend. A couple of the items are some things i've scored off of ebay lately as well. I found metroid complete on the bay for 20 shipped, and contra force and the manual on the bay for 25 shipped. Rest of the items were found at the flea marker yesterday! I got the games for 7 dollars a piece, the vhs tapes for 3 a piece, and the books for 2 a piece. Pretty good i thought, since he sold it all to me for 80 (cut me a deal)? Whatcha think?

And some "freebies", which we aren't supposed to talk about here ;)
A sale, rather than a find - I listed Future Cop L.A.P.D. for the PS1 on eBay last night with a £9.99 starting price and a £12.99 BIN and it was bought this morning for £13! :eek 2: Not bad, seeing as I haven't got much selling feedback, and I bought the game for 70p.:D

So, on Friday, kind of on a whim and kind of because I've wanted one for a while, I caved in and bought a PS2.
Got myself a nice black slimline one in GameStation for the whopping price of £80.
£10 extra got me a memory card, why they dont sell it with one is annoying.
Another tenner got me OutRun 2006: Coast 2 Coast - utterly brilliant game, and the fact that I played a Sega game first doesn't make me feel so bad about getting a Sony console.
Also picked up the following 4 games (well, technically 5, but 4 discs) for a total of a tenner:
Killer 7
Shadow Of Memories
TimeSplitters 2
King of Fighters 2000-2001
So, for the grand total of £110 got a slim PS2 and 5 games.

Although I'm pretty broke for the summer and probably shouldn't have dropped that much money, I'm quite pleased that I got practically new copies of PDS and DF in a store near my house from a guy I trust, as opposed to goddamn eBay.

Thanks to my buddy Dojosky, got this in the mail today, paid $40 for this one, solid price imho for a top loader these days (especially non-ebay related). Always a pleasure doing business with Dojosky of course :)

Not quite a 'Find,' but I got a sealed Shadow of the Colossus @ BB for $20. I thought it was still $40, but it isn't I guess.

CT Special Forces (Metal Slug rip off) from eBay :)
How is the playstation version? I was disappointed in the first CT Special Forces for GBA but I loved parts 2 and 3 (they really smoothed out the gameplay in 'em). I remember it was supposed to get a US Release and never did :(

Doesn't the first Toejam & Earl game go for a decent penny? Just currious.

Yes, Toejam & Earl is one of the more sought after Genny titles and the price can be high.

Oh, because I bought it for $10 a few years back loose when it was still rolling around $20 on eBay loose. I've been trying to complete it since forever! Pretty much feels as though you have to buy it complete or it's a no show.

Got some stuff today:
Tales of Eternia (PSP) - $54 after tax
Thank goodness my Fry's has import PSP games
Mario Kart Double Dash bonus disc - Free
Gamecube controller - Free
Some lady came in with it, turns out her bird pecked the shit out of the thumbstick and c-stick. The controller works just fine. It's an easy fix.

I ended July by picking up Super Mario 3 (loose) and an NES Game Genie (loose with no book) for $5 at Goodwill.
During the same week, I also found a loose Playstation system with Nascar 2000 and NCAA Football 1999 (disc only) and a memory card attached to it. The price was $4. It works fine.
