    Got all these items a while back but didn't finalize the price until right now (as I sold other goods that came in the bundle).

    So excluding Geist (missing manual) for $1, Fire Emblem for $30, and WipeOut Pure $2 the rest were $23 total.

    That is exactly what it is. I hate to say it, but at $3, I think you overpaid. The one thing I did like however was that those Scene It controllers came with batteries. Nice touch.

    Well crap. I guess I probably got $1 out of it since my daughter played with it for most of the time in the store and otherwise she was near the end of her rope. Anyone need it for $2 to make up the difference?

    I swung through a GW this afternoon and there were some ps1 games like Jet Moto 2, tiny toons, etc, on the carts of stuff about to be put out. So close, but nothing actually worthwhile. I suspect they screen that stuff pretty closely in the back. At least I picked up a few more ink cartridges, canon this time.

    I picked up a really cool chess board at the local auction tonight. Some pieces included but those are pretty much trash as I have three incomplete sets and some pieces are broken. Will put those up on eBay eventually and see if anyone bites for parts.

    I'll post a picture up tomorrow but I need some help with this thing. It's definitely old and looks to be a marble surface embedded in a wood case. Came from an estate sale and I bought some other items in the same lot that I've dated in the 60's but I'm confident this board is older. I couldn't find any markings on it at the place but I didn't take it out of the car tonight.

    Anyone have experience with these things? I bought it to keep for myself as I'm a big chess guy but if it's worth a decent amount, I might consider letting it go.

    I had a really disappointing trip today. I hit the first flea market of 2012 for me. Even though it was inside, I figured it would be small since after all the building isn't heated well, and it is the first week of February. As it turned out, the place was packed. Just not with the stuff that I wanted. I did however see some odd CDs, but I am not quite sure if they rise to Kitsune levels. I saw the soundtrack to the Tank Girl movie and the CD of Menopause - The Musical.

    Also, I already own the soundtrack for Tank Girl. It isn't that good.

    Technically this is from last weekend, but I forgot to post it then... from my local dirt mall... went late to meet up with some friends, and while I was waiting for them to show up, walked around. Came upon this guy just setting up, putting a box full of NES and SNES games on the table. I decided to riffle through them, and was quite surprised at what I found... as I dug through the games, the guy offered to sell me the whole thing for $40. Sold.

    So... yay!

    Holy shit, wow is right!
    If people are still finding copies in the wild for a steal like this, then this is proof that Earthbound isn't that rare

    Flea Market:

    One of the first things I ran into was this...Asking price $500.00
    If it was $50.00 I would of bought it.







    Everything I bought today I lugged around in this box given to me there...

    and everything except the calculator was bought from the same vendor..(the only guy who had anything worthwhile-the last vendor I saw before I left)





    Board Games were $15.00 for all plus an extra Qbert part....I have a Pac Man set in my collection and these are all going up for sale.
    The two long Pac Man sets are heavy..




    Sears Video Arcade II System...$10.00..no plug but it looks like a common plug end not like the 7800.






    Gamecube Deck..$5.00..I bought it because it has ZELDA decals on it-to go with my Gamecubes with Mario Gamecubes..
    And too cheap to bother selling.
    It was complete with parts for $10.00 but I was broke by then..

    Dreamcast RF $1.00
    Dreamcast DC Super Extension Cables $$2.00 Each..
    Final Fantasy IX $3.00 in a DVD case.. discs are nice.
    PS2 Multiap $2.00

    GTX tire pressure tools $2 for $1.00

    Nintebo Games $1.00 each


    Vintage Calculator in display case $5.00

    The vendor that I bought all the stuff from also had a bunch of dirty Genesis systems,N64,A Brown faded Dreamcast..and a Dirty Atari 2600 with trashed game carts..No plug no controllers.
    Another buyer gave me the respect to look at it first then asked nicley if I was going to buy it,I said No..he haggled it to $13.00 for the whole bin with games,He asked me why i didn't want it..I said because it's just to much to gather up everything else to sell it,test it .then with shipping it's just not worth it..(as I buy to sell)

    My first finds of the month. Finds for me have been realtively slow, due to tax season, and putting up snow stuff before I loose my window.

    However, these are mostly for me, I paid $80 for all of them off Craigslist, felt it was a fair deal.

    Crazy nice deal. Dragon Force by itself will sell for $80. Congrats!

    Funny, I end up in the same boat most of the time something says 'Sega' on it. I keep 90%, and sell the extras.

    Nintendo 64 without hook ups with Cruisin world at good will 5 bucks for the n64 and 3 bucks for cruisin world

    and a late christmas present from my little brother... really wish he didn't but he did so whatever i guess.
    A sega nomad fully working operates like new. Only problem with it is a small scuff on the screen that i think can be fixed.

    he paid i am guessing 58 bucks on ebay.

    Yeah, I'm a sucker for oddball Sega stuff. I don't know why, relatively, it's worthless compared to Nintendo stuff, but I'll be damned if it isn't cooler than hell.

    I'm keeping the Working Designs stuff, but Xmen: Children of the Atom, and Marvel Super Heroes are for sale.

    That Saturn find is similar to one I missed out on last night. Guy had posted a Saturn along with 8~10 games including Magic Knight Rayearth, Shining Force 3, Shining Wisdom, Shining the Holy Ark and a couple others for $50. Man it hurt to miss that, but he sold it already. XD

    I think I know the Craigslit Ad you were talking about, since I'm down in the Springs and I'd seen it up there for awhile too. It looks like you were able to talk the guy down a fair amount from his original asking price!

    I'm interested in the other two Saturn games from you, cash-in-hand, depending on the price. PM me if you're interested

    Same. With a few exceptions, I never keep anything Nintendo unless it's for testing games. Nintendo systems, except the Game Boy, didn't mean a lot to me growing up. Sega, however, did.



    Oh yea, here's this chess board I was talking about. Maybe someone can help me with this. Antique, hand crafted, and some kind of stone (I'm guessing marble) surface.



    I'm just going to stick it up on eBay tomorrow with a reserve. If it sells, awesome. If not, I have an antique table it will pair with in my game room.

    Sadly, I didn't get anything this weekend. Bad weather kept me from going out.
