Wow! Thanks DP!!!!

[scooterb23]

I got the box full 'o stuff I won from the infamous "I'm here" message board speed fix celebration contest...I don't have time to find the actual thread right now...

Anyway, I got my goodies today, and wow, just plain wow.

Start off with a little foam Shinobi throwing star...my sister is not safe
An NES Game Genie
An SNES (I think???) Game Genie
NBA Showdown for SNES
Sheep for PSX
Ratchet & Clank demo disc
Sly Cooper Demo Disc (where did you get these? I've never seen discs in packaging like this)
College Slam for the Saturn (Joe must have found out that my love of basketball has never been greater than it is this year!!!)
AD&D Pool Of Radience for the C64
Drug Wars DVD (I almost bought this last weekend!!)
A Zapper the Cricket clicker...
Sega Dreamcast sticker
a Sony Playstation plastic bag
and finally...a Classic Gaming Expo polo shirt!!!

Thanks so much Joe!!

You're quite welcome! Sorry it took so long, but it was fun tossing things into the box as time went by. I kept thinking: "yeah... he'd like this".

BTW that CGE Polo Shirt? THAT is a collector's item. Only 9 such shirts exist. Three each for Sean, John, and I (part of my "improving the image" plot that was foiled). The one I sent you was meant for John but after wearing shirt #1, the others were handed back to me *sigh* If anything in that lot is WORTH something, THAT POLO SHIRT is - it's got history and rarity!

The PS2 discs are pretty common demos, that's the way Sony packages 'em, in PS2-box sized sleeves.

So enjoy! I'm glad you like the stuff!

where exactly did you get those demos?? i would like to own a few of them, the closest things i hav to those are the demos in a gamestop display booth, lets just say i know the cats that work out there...they hook me up with the preview movies they get for like 2 bucks a peice and other super-sized display boxes, today i got the big sized box of Mechwarrior!

Those two specifically I got at E3 last year. Others I've gotten from EB and Gamestop employees who shall remain nameless.

This is a first...I've never heard of a rare shirt before...

Well, actually, I do have a limited edition Fubu shirt, but a 1 of 9...and it actually almost fits me...maybe by CGE this year

I wonder what that'd pull on Ebay

thanks again, I think I need to go hit my sister again with the Shinobi star...she fell asleep about 10 minutes ago.

Especially after the practical joke she pulled on me...I ripped open the box, and 6 pair of underwear greeted me..."What the???" doesn't even begin to explain my initial reaction...then she gave me the Wal-Mart bag she had stored my goodies in... >

[digitalpress]

First of all, I think I'd have a pretty big problem with my sister opening my packages.

This would be far compounded if, even as a joke, she filled it with her underwear.

And ten times worse if it were MY underwear.

What exactly is going on in that house of yours, anyway, Scooter?!

[scooterb23]

Actually, it was brand new...in the pack (fortunately...) I am upset that they opened it before I could...
