As stated in the last thing, I really have enough cart only Pokemons heheh. Bought 108 as is Pokemon GB games (17 each of Blue, Red, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Crystal) for about $140 shipped, 3 work perfectly, about half need new batteries and the other half are destroyed because Gamestop decided it would be a good idea to sand the connectors down instead of replacing the batteries (they're all Gamestop refurbs), so right now I'm looking at at least tripling my money after I get around to replacing the batteries.
/me drools at the Shining Force stuff. Why can't I have anything nice? Then /me looks over to the shelf with Earthbound, a prototype NES game, and Vectrex system and just says "meh". That's a really great find!Originally Posted by jeffg
No game stuff at all found on Friday or Saturday. Sunday we went out of town to Austin to do stuff for my sis's birthday. At the Lakeside (think it was called that) mall I went to a game store aptly called "Gamerz" and got a Turbografx controller for $7.99 and a minty boxed copy of the NES version of Jeopardy for $5.99. I also flew by the flea market earlier today (sunday) to check about those Ukuleles. The guy had a vintage Regal uke and a Cortley baritone uke. They both need work. Both instruments need new strings and the Regal needs a new nut (look it up silly dirty minded peoples) but the guy relized they were a bit rough and wanted $60 for both. When I finish fixing up the Regal it should be worth $40-50 and the Cortley should be worth at least $100.
Check my auctions here! I am in the business of finding off-beat things, including video game stuff!

heh, how would sanding down connectors be a replacement idea of replacing the batteries.eBay:

got a 30% off coupon for goodwill. So I went yesterday and picked these:
MegaMan X5 (CIB)(PS1) 1.99$
Super Gameboy 2.99$
Final Fantasy VII (PC includes instruction manual) 1.99$
Anyone know the approximate worth of the FFVII for PC? Not too interested in selling it just curious if I got a good deal on it. All I see is extremely inflated prices on ebay. 89.00$..? Don't think so.

Looking at completed listings, ones with only the instruction manual actually sell for around $30-40. Ones that have the big box sell for $70-90.
Nice find on FF7 PC. Now, get yourself an old PC with a gamepad (unless you like playing with the numpad), a 3dfx card, and an ISA soundcard with soundfont support. FF7 doesn't get much better than that. Don't install it on a modern PC without reading up on it first, it uses some funky video codecs.
Does it have all four discs? The install disc is important, because the other three just have the videos and the field data.

Donkey Kong Happy Meal Toy x2 - .25 Each
Small finds from different sales All IAP.
Black GameCube System (Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition Bundle) New And Sealed - $20
This was just put out as I was looking around, I figured it was just a boxed system but picked it up and looked at it and the lady mentioned how she got it for her husband for Christmas one year and he never opened it. Was asking $30 and I said I was thinking more like $10 and asked about meeting me in the middle which she agreed on.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong & Pokemon Sapphire Version - $5
Atlantis: The Lost Tales In Double Jewel Case With Manual - .50
Forgot to include this stuff in the picture with the Genesis stuff from Saturday. The GBA games I found at the second sale I went to (that was unadvertised) had about 20 PS2 & GC games marked at $5 each, nothing I was intereted in but I asked about games to which 4 GameBoy games were brought out. I passed on one of the Mega Man Battle Network 3 games & Pokemon Pinball. Wanted $3 each and $5 for the Pokemon game and took my offer of $5 for both.
Atlantis was found pretty late (probably about 11:30) with some other PC games, was asking $1 took .50 no problem.
50 Sega Genesis Games, NES Controller, NES Starmaster Joystick - $35
Forgot To Put In Picture - Cliffhanger, Madden NFL 98 & Sub Terrania
Boxed Games With Glare - Sonic, Sonic 2 & Taz Mania
Cart Games With Glare - Shining Force, Sonic & Sonic 2
It was late in the day when I got this, probably shortly after 11. I actually found it at a 2 block sale and was surprised it was still around. Table full of Genesis games that was priced $1.50 a game. I offered $20 for all of them which was countered with $50 but could go to $40 and I asked if he'd meet me in the middle at $30 from $40 and he said $35 and I agreed with the controllers added in.
Looked like a handful of games sold but not much before I got to it, I'm thinking that the guy must have been asking more (I'd guess $3 per a game maybe $2) and marked them down after a few hours if they weren't selling too well. He might not have been as willing to deal I'm thinking if it was earlier.
Virtua Cop (R-Zone, New) - $2
Picked this up thinking that the seller would ask $1-3. He wanted $6 at first or $5 saying his kid wanted no less then that. I told him I was thinking a buck and he said I could have it for $2 and he would tell his kid he got $5 for it, I'm guessing the kid bit was a lie.
Silver GBA SP With Case & 10 Games - $12
When I saw this I tried the system out and nothing. I picked up Donkey Kong Country and asked about selling just that or if they were selling everything and it was everything. Wanted $20 and said that the system did work when charged. With the charger missing offered to do $15 to which I was thinking $10 and asked about meeting me in the midde and I got it for $12.

Aside from the bigger outer box it is complete.
Recent finds:
For those in the know, the Planescape: Blood War boxed set is very difficult to find. This one is complete and near mint. Found for $1 at a yard sale (along with unpictured complete and near mint Campaign Box Set). Blood War in this condition will typically sell for $120-$150 on ebay. Gaiden was $10 at local pawn shop.
Weird find at Kmart last week in the video game clearance rack: three copies of Persona 3 with art book $3.99 each. Zelda: Ocarina and Chrono Cross $3 each at pawn shop.
Guides from Half Price Books $1 clearannce section: Donkey Kong Country, Ehrgeiz (PS1) and Zelda: Oracle of Seasons and Ages. Zelda LTTP manual .50 from yard sale.

There's also a paper cutout that goes on the numpad, and a yellow paper with driver information.
