    My thoughts on this swap meet

    1, I thought it was going to be bigger, but the fact that the other half of the place was a bar was great, i was able to have a beer and wings was great...

    2, I was kinda sad I didnt see any 32x's, virtual boys or Jaguars for sale (the promo unit at the back was cool though) I got there at 1:15ish and stayed till everyone was putting things awayish at 4:15ish...

    3, I was extreamly happy with the free table, I picked up like 4 games a sms controller and a nes rack all at different times..

    4. I bought me a Vectrex for $75, the guy wanted $100 and my bug was able to talk him down for me... classic concentration & dodgeball I got too!

    5. my friend got bobble bobble for $15 bucks! dammm him I wish i saw it first!

    6. it seemed dominated by nes and atari, and genesis in 3rd... after that I was surprised in the lack of other system game selections... ohwell though nes and 2600 are all that matters anyways lol

    7. I was afraid it was going to be a bunch of collectors selling things at collector prices, but it wasnt at all, everything was very reasonable prices to start and slowly turned into steal prices if you were lucky to see them still there...

    I regret not getting phantasy star for sms for $12... but it was just the cart, no case...
    I should have picked up another power pad since it was only $5!...

    me and my 4 buds walked out with like 2 bags of stuff it was great

    The last meet was busier than this one, fewer people attended this one for some reason. I still enjoyed it, and it was nice to clear out some stuff while getting some more games too.

    Pretty much, there were fall meets in the past(including last year) but the person who sets them up only wants to do them once a year now(in the spring).
