September 2007 Finds

[KeyserSoze61]

a craigslist find today . got it for 40.00 . and the guy met me halfway in downtown chicago so i didnt have to drive that far . everything is very good condition . there are no scratches on any of the games and the systems and especially the controllers look like thay were never used . i think i got a great deal considerng i never see any sega cd stuff in the wild . and sonic cd is my fav 2d sonic game .

Amazing find. I've been looking for a Sega CD bundle like that for a while. I just missed a CDX a few months back on CL, but I'll keep searching until I can find a good deal around here.

Some ok finds today. I'm going out again tomorrow.

-Madden 2004 (complete) for Gamecube: $5 at Movie Gallery (the two clerks there ribbed me some because the game has Michael Vick on the cover )

-Super Space Invaders cart for Game Gear: $2 at Goodwill (who wants this?)

-Athena cart for NES: $3 at Goodwill

-Mattel Electronics Football in original box with original manual and retail price tag (good shape): 99 cents at Goodwill

*the football game is like the one here: http://www.handheldmuseum.com/Mattel/FB.htm

but my box is slightly different than that one, I have the 1977 release and the one pictured there is the revision which still looks very similar

-Galoob MVP Football in original box with original manual/scorecards (good shape): 99 cents at Goodwill

*this football game is the exact same one you see here:

Went to a different CC today, and took advantage of thier 33% of clearance again... and picked up Cold Fear for the XBOX for 6.00 and Advent Rising for 3.32 (XBOX). I've been playing Cold Fear since I got it earlier today, and it seems to be a pretty decent survival horror game, and it appears to be 720p- so the game looks great.

Total Funpak - Complete
Arctic Adventure (Penguin and Seal) - Complete

[namzep]

Picked up Picross DS ($20) and Sodokuro (DS, $15) from Best Buy. Wish I had known about the 33% off on closeout games since there were a few that I thought about getting.

I went to Goodwill in search of some dvds but found this stuff instead:

Breakout(PSX)- 3.03
Theme Park(PSX) -6.06
Final Fantasy (NES) - 3.03...will most likely sell
Halo 2 - Collectors Edition (XBOX) - 15

It may not be a steal on Halo 2, but it was a mint copy.

NBA Jam for the Genesis... Complete and Near Mint for 2.99 @ goodwill.

[Nesmaster]

Found an Xbox today console only. Took it home and cleaned it up, opened it and cleaned it. Powers up, might work or need a new dvd drive. Won't know for sure until I get some video cables.

NBA Jam for the Genesis... Complete and Near Mint for 2.99 @ goodwill.

That is a good one! I found the exact same game, in the exact same condition, for the exact same price at my local Goodwill just a few months ago. The two NBA Jam's run pretty good on the Genesis, if you ask me.


Today's finds on my end included:


-Resident Evil 2 (complete) for PS1: $1 at my local second hand store, this is the 2-disc version that comes in the double sized jewel case

-Donkey Kong NES Classics Series (cart and manual) for Gameboy Advance: $1 at my local second hand store

-Two first-party Playstation 2 dualshock controllers: $1 each at my local second hand store, in great shape

-NFL Football cart for NES: $1 at the Salvation Army


So this little haul was $5 total. When I got home, I proceeded to sell all of the items except one of the PS2 controllers to my older brother who had stopped by the house. He saw this stuff and became very interested. I let him have those for the price I paid, him being family and all. So I got $4 of my $5 back and still ended up with a good, working PS2 controller for my trouble today.
