    Default HUGE Goodwill haul today and FT

    Stoped by the same Goodwill that I picked up a $0.99 Glib on monday and a $70 new Gamecube Platnium last Friday and had more luck. Saw a box of about 100 different 2600 and Colecovision carts. After sifting thru everything for about 10 minuets, I left with the following:

    (loose genesis)
    Toe Jam & Earl: Panic on Funkotron

    (complete CV carts)
    Up 'n Down
    Decathlon -almost complete...no glove :^(
    Telly Turtle
    Pit Stop
    Gyruss

    (loose CV carts)
    Frogger II
    Mr. Do's Castle
    Looping
    Ladybug
    Turbo
    Slither
    Choplifter!
    Gorf
    Space Panic
    Subroc (this cart is VERY heavy for some reason)
    Froger
    Galaxian
    Centipede
    Gateway To Apshai
    Rock 'N Rope
    Mr. Do!
    Star Trek
    Burger Time
    Smurf-Rescue In Gargamel's Castle
    Zaxxon
    Mouse Trap
    Super Action Baseball
    Super Action Football
    Pepper II
    Tutankham
    The Heist

    (2600 loose carts)
    Gopher
    Keystone Kapers
    Casino
    Coconuts
    Turmoil
    Dolphin
    Crackpots
    Lock 'N' Chase
    Super Challenge Football
    Tron Deadly Discs
    Cosmic Creeps
    Spelling
    Arcade Golf
    Video Chess
    Midnight Madness

    All carts were $0.99 and I used my expired college ID to get an aditional 10% discount. I'll consider trading just about everything I picked up from this haul. Mail me with your list if interested.

    No bullshit, just luck! (I swear!) It was actually $74.99 but I used my student ID to get another 10% off.

    that Subroc probably has eproms inside- ive run across a few CV carts like that. Up n Down's box and instructions are very hard to come by.
    good find

    I've come across some Xbox and GBA games at Goodwill, so not EVERYTHING is older stuff. I also saw a Gamecube, but they were asking full retail price for it. No BS there either.

    Default goodwill finds

    Yeah those are good finds. I go to the Goodwill in Fullerton, CA and they have a Technology section that sells new/almost new ps2 games for 24.99 that normally sell for 49.99 like Metal of honor, gundam: fed vs. zeon...etc. I get my ps2 games there since its cheap.

    I stumble upon a good deal once in awhile on classic systems.
