July 2009 Finds

[ErmangelnSeelen]

Traded my subs (lol ghetto, but they were really nice ones ) for an 80gb ps3 (no bc )

Also, I went to a game store with some extra crap I can't even sell on here, and was offered $20...so I went to another one, and was offered $100

I picked up:

Gauntlet (Complete) $5
Thunder Force III (complete) $5 (genesis)

I still have $90 in credit.

I SHOULD sell the PS3, but I might use that credit to get some games...although I like JRPGs and the like, and PS3 has very little to offer me =/

I think he meant he sold some subwoofers.

Either that or a five dollar footlong.

[ErmangelnSeelen]

Futurama seasons 1-4
Earthworm Jim (snes)
Super Mario World
Resident Evil 2 (no manual, stupid blockbuster protector)
random game boy color, game boy advance sp

some other crap i can't remember, but I got more than I paid on every item, the RE2 was $15 credit!

[Octopod]

Complete and it looks completely unplayed. They are all in new sealed or like new but open condition.

Actually Arena is not complete . Looking at the box and Wikipedia I'm missing the 3.5 disk. Pretty big item to be missing lol but it has a CD-Rom version of the game. Unless some were released like this but the box still says that it is on 3.5 disk so probably not. The lady I bought it from had a stack of games and a box of games that were disc and manuals and whatnot bundled together without their boxes so I wonder if I left the disc there. *shrug* Actually I think I prefer having the CD version.

Went to 1 Garage sale today, found a mini white ps1 system with the lcd screen attachment for $5, it also came with the cigarette adapter plug and a nice offical sony soft black carry case, the system and screen and some games can all fit in the carry bag.

The same sale had a psp for $55, but i passed on it.

[Queen Of The Felines]

Found a brand new copy of The Sims 3 at a Goodwill today for $10.

Wow, that's great. I wonder how that ended up at Goodwill so quickly?

[FOnewearl]

AC Adaptor for GBC & GBP (New In Box) - $1 [IAP]

Silent Hill (Complete & Non Greatest Hits) - $5

I saw Silent Hill at one of the first tables today at the flea market, had a few Playstation games all marked $5 each. I recognized the guy since I bought Final Fantasy VII off of him last year, he was asking $5 for it and wouldn't take anything less when I started out offering him $3 for it so when I saw Silent Hill today I didn't even bother trying to haggle since I figured he wouldn't and I knew it was well worth it at $5 being the first time I've seen it in the wild around here in years. This is one of those sellers that rarely sells at the flea market, say 1-3 times a year.

No kidding. You'd have to pry mine from my cold dead hands. I love Sims 3.
Seriously though, Sims is one of those love it or hate it games. No in between. Still, strange it would end up in a goodwill instead of selling it.

[DKTheArcadeRat]

It probably ended up in Goodwill as a Target defect. A lot of clearance stuff that doesn't sell or opened/returned and "defective" merchandise ends up going to Goodwill from Target, or at least that is my understanding.

I see a lot of that at the flea market where I buy stuff. One booth owner in particular seems to get tons of stuff from Target. The UPC's cut off or marked out, but the items are sometimes brand new...

i have gotten 3 of copies of the sims 3 for $6 each over the past couple weeks, all from goodwill, they must be getting a bunch of them.

[Baloo]

Goodwill seems to get a LOT of those copies of that one DS game too, rhythm something I think it's called. Don't remember off the top of my head.

And nice PS3 deal, that's pretty much highway robbery right there.

Just call me Smokey.

[Ye0ldmario]

you haggled the guy down right? what was he originally asking for it?

[garagesaleking!!]

the goodwills also get a ton of jbl and logitech ipod docks but price them insane, like if the target price was 99, they price them at 70.
