As most of us know, Rhino was just bought by Gamestop, and they now have insane discounts on their old games. Many games are $0.75-1.00! Good stuff too! I just walked out of there with-

NES-
Dragon Spirit
Metal Gear 2- Snakes Revenge
Double Dribbe
Crazy Castle
Fantasy Zone

SNES-
Alexay
Thunder Spirit
Fighter's History
Battle Blaze

Genesis-
Altered Beast
Aladdin
Ghostbusters
Thunderforce III

My total was $15.00!

Rhino is a game store from what I understand, found only on the mid (east?) coast. I've bought several SNES games online only to receive them and find a "RHINO" sticker on the back.

I guess they're like Game Crazy or FuncoLand

If they're East Coast, then they've got to be in New England. I've never seen them in the Mid-Atlantic states.

EDIT: And by New England, I mean the South.

I originally heard that GameStop was going to have Rhino ship them all out to a GameStop warehouse as soon as possible without a clearance of any kind. Glad to hear that wasn't true!

Depends on your Rhino because the one in Gainesville Florida didnt reduce their rates much at all on the used stuff. I still bought a lot of stuff though since they were my source around here. I picked up $700 bucks worth of stuff.

time to get a new girlfriend if you can only spend 7.28 on games, do my trick I do with my wife...tell her ebay prices and if you don't buy if now for cheap you'll happily spend 4x as much down the road and pick it up later

Crap the Rhino by me has yet to drop the prices that low. I only was able to pick PSone games up for cheap.

Thank you for the "heads up". I would've completely missed out. Last night I went to the Rhino's in Asheville and went on a spending spree. I ended up getting 17 Sega Genesis carts, 18 for the SNES and 21 NES games. All for just over $60! I'm quite pleased. Those should keep me busy for a while.
One thing that wasn't in stock that I was really hoping for was the SNES game, Super Mario All Stars.
mb7241, you wouldn't happen to be willing to part with one of those multiple copies that you got up there in Cleveland would you?
