[Cornelius]

A couple cool things today:



Half off day at Unique:
GB printer paper appears new, bag inside is sealed and it doesn't appear the box was ever sealed
New PS2 8MB memory card
SNES controller
ink
grand total after discount: $7.45

[SparTonberry]

I've heard GB Printer Paper has lost all its usefulness due to its age.

[Cornelius]

That wouldn't surprise me at all, but let's face it, the GB printer was never all that great in the first place. I can't really imagine anyone opening this omg rarez collectible, anyway. ;-)

Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Luigi's Mansion (missing manual), Call of Duty: Black Ops and Army of Two were from Goodwill. SSBB was $14.99, the others were $5.99 each. Blasto was $.99 at Salvation Army and My Japanese Coach was $19.99 at Wherehouse.

[The 1 2 P]

Super Smash Bros Brawl(Wii) $10
Super Monkey Ball Adventure(GC) $4
MAG(PS3) sealed $5
Bless The Child vhs movie $1
Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages(GBC) $3
Pokemon Yellow(GB) $3
Double Dragon import(GBA) $10
Silent Hill 2(Xbox) $3

The first four things I got from one Goodwill. I had to make it an even $25(or more) to use my $5 off coupon, which is why I picked up the vhs movie. That made my copy of SSBB $10 instead of the $15 they had it marked at. It was another Target return. MAG sucks and is the only PS3 game I have ever sold after playing it. But it was sealed so I figured I could use it in trade. Silent Hill 2 and the two Game Boy games were from another Goodwill, the one that pretty much sells all their games for $3 now(I wish the other locations followed that directive). This is the first time I've seen Oracle of Ages in the wild. Is it wrong that the last Zelda game I've beaten was the first one on the Nes way back in the 80's?



Buffy The Vampire Slayer season 2 dvd $4
Soap Panic and some other game(FAM)
The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind(Xbox) $4
Secre 5(TM) $25
DS Case $3
Silent Hill(PS1) import demo $7

Ironically I found the BTVS season 2 dvd set as I'm just about finished watching season one. It wasn't marked so they gave it to me for the normal dvd price. Soap Panic and the other game were alittle less than $100 combined after using my discount for the online store. One of these days I need to get a list for all of the Hacker Famicom games beyond the AV ones. Speaking of list, I can't find any for the Secre games, not even on gamefaqs. Morrowind and the DS case were from Goodwill. As always, I'm going to say that this will be my last DS/GBA case purchased. Of course I say that all the time and I currently have around 5 or 6 of them. But this one was really nice with all it's cool compartments.



Two Halo 4 t-shirts $3.99 each
360 wired controller $2.99
Original Xbox memory card and dongle $2.99
Assassin's Creed III novel 50 cents
UV Light Scanner $1.99
PS3 demo sealed $1
Street Fighter II cd $1.99
Black Eyed Peas cd $1.99

The two shirts were clearances. All the bagged stuff was from Savers(it amuses me how we just got our first Savers in this state in April or May and a few weeks later every Goodwill in the state starts immediately copying how they have a majority of their smaller product in little baggies). Anyway, there was also an original Xbox controller bagged but they wanted more money for that than the 360 controller. I'm not sure what the memory card dongle is for besides maybe saying your files to your PC. The UV scanner was the first weird thing I found at Savers. It's suppose to be a sanitizer for surfaces and stuff. It sounds very futuristic but it was cheap so I figured I'd try it out. The other weird thing was the SF II cd. It basically has a few songs on it but Nintendo's logo is also on the case, although I doubt they had anything to do with the actual cd itself. The PS3 demo and Assassin's Creed III novel were from two different Goodwill's.

This just showed up today. Paid a mere $20 for it. I bought it mainly for the controllers, which as expected, have pretty buggered joysticks. I was not expecting it to have the expansion pak though. That was a nice bonus. I'd say it was a pretty good deal for $20. I just finished cleaning it up and replacing the joysticks and I must say I'm pretty happy with this pickup.

Last week I picked up 5 metal DDR pads. 4 of them are Champion and one of them iON. The iON and one of the Champion pads have the support bar. I paid $50 for all of them.

Today I picked up all of these PC games for $20 from a craigslist deal. Everything is complete in box.
These first two pictures are all Sealed.



These next two pictures are the open games.

New stuff from the last couple of days! ^_^


This was given to me by a co-worker! Isn't she sweet?

I picked up this Ipod classic from Craiglist for 30 bucks. I know it's not gaming related but I do have video game music in it so I figure it counts

Some stuff I got in the mail! ^_^

Thanks Amazon! All Gamestops were out of the limited edition so I went online and Amazon bailed me out!

That's all gamers!

Windows 98 & Plus 98 combo disc OEM
Windows 98 second edition upgrade disc
Office 97 small business edition disc OEM

Got all this stuff from a guy on Kijiji. I won't say how much I paid as I probably over payed, but how much would you guys pay for everything in the pics?

[camarotuner]

I'd say 200-250 range as I can't quite make out a few of the games. That's assuming I wanted everything.

I wouldn't pay that much myself as there's little I would want to keep, but it's probably worth around $200-$300 if it all worked.

[FamicomFreak]

Here are a couple of finds from today!




Look at all the batteries it needs! I need AC adapter and more games for it!

I also picked these games up from a local game shoppe!

Nintendo DS System & Games - 50

Asking price was 60 I offered 40 which was countered with 50 being the best they would do.

[Enmity]
