No one else has done this yet for this week, so I thought I'd start it.

Nothing special for me today, but good nonetheless:

SimCity for SNES (boxed with manual) - $11 AUS
NES Controller - $3 AUS

I consider this a find. Today my Dreamcast I bought on eBay arrived...... no wait
it really is a find, in the aution the guy said nothing about it being boxed so it
went cheap not to mention it had a new Dreamkey and 2 demo disks.
Oh yeah and my replacement D.C part arrived today, better send a P.M now :)

I picked up Typing of the Dead finally (going to grab a keyboard today).

I also bought Oni since it was only $8. I don't care how bad a game it is, $8 (used) is a steal for a PS2 game (that's like $5 USDs). They don't even sell Fantavision less than $10 yet.

I returned my brand new Yu-Gi-Oh for the PS2 and pronptly bought a used one for 20 bucks less, then used the rest of my credit to get Resident Evil for the Saturn complete ($6) and Giga Wing Complete ($12).

And we got Kung Fu Choas, man is it fun.

Just my anal retentive attention to detail. I record the exact cost of what I pay for every game, so those were the totals. Where'd they come from? At Gamestop, they have a 10% discount on used games (I'm sure you know), so, if a title is $1.99, then...(1.99*.90 = 1.79*1.0825 <sales tax in TX> = $1.91).

It's basically 90% of the sticker plus tax. Goofy, but hey!
