Midweek Finds: 6/6 - 6/10

[Jumpman Jr.]

Just got a sweet lot of 150 NES games off of a local collector who was selling off all of his stuff (CanadianZombie). Every game in the lot was a game that I needed.




I think this lot puts me above 500 NES games and above 1000 total games.

[GrayFox]

Went to my local Thrift and scored a Master System bonanza!

I got
Gangster Town (Complete)
Hang On/Safari Hunt (Complete)
Shooting Galery (Complete)
Rampage (Complete)
All for $2.99

Then I got
Rocky (Complete)
Great Golf (Complete)
Parlour Games (Complete)
All for $1.99

And then I also got a complete Master System in the Box for $5.99. And I get it home and open it, and what's inside, but a copy of Phantasy Star! Score!

Also I got a demo of Bug! for the Saturn for $1.99 as well as a copy of the Official Final Fantasy 8 guide for $1.99

And to top it off I got a demo of Destroy All Humans! from my local EB.

Best finds for me in a long while.

Awesome haul man. I'm jealous on that CIB Master System. I'm dying for a CIB Master System. It's just so, sexy.


And to that guy who got FF3. Awesome. But WHY CAN'T I GET A FF3!!!!!? Porque?! Warum!?

Awesome finds, Jibbajaba!

Did you score those from a store or did you receive them online? Just curious. They all look to be in great condition.

Nice find. How much did all of that run you?

[Jibbajaba]

Awesome finds, Jibbajaba!

Did you score those from a store or did you receive them online? Just curious. They all look to be in great condition.

They were listed locally. Some dude hard up for cash I guess. He was selling a DC package, a PSX package, and an N64 package. I didn't take the N64 package, but somehow Doom64 found it's way into one of the bags. And yeah most everything is in really nice condition. The Lunars are pretty much mint. A couple of former rentals in there, but mostly not. I'm going to list all of the final fantasy games as one lot on eBay and I should make back what I paid for everything. I already have a Dreamcast and a PSX, so the systems are leaving as well, as are those arcade sticks.

Chris

EDIT: Drummy, 44 games plus 2 complete systems plus 2 arcade sticks for $120. I should make most or all of it back selling the FF games on eBay. I just saw an auction end at $80 for all 7 PSX FF games, and most of them were GH. I;m going to see if I can replace the FFT with a non-GH copy before I list it though.

[MegaDrive20XX]

Wow what a day, I traded in 4 PS controllers, 1 PSX unit, and a bunch of RF Switches at GameCrazy, got $21.42 for it all.

Saw a used copy of Mr. Driller Drill Spirits on DS for $19.99 Used, it was in mint condition, included everything with it.

So I grabbed that, plus CastleVania (Classic NES Series) brand new for $14.99

Yet thanks to my employee discount, it turned out like this

Mr. Driller Drill Spirits- $15.99 for the used copy

CastleVania (Classic NES Series) for $13.49 (New copy)

After taxes and trade in credit, I spent, $8.72 in total

[DDCecil]

My brother found me an extra copy of Kirby's Adventure at the thirft store for .50. Strange, as NES games there are
usually 2.00 or more...

Jibbajaba, if you want to sell/trade that Wild Arms, let me know! I NEED that game!

[namzep]

Not a real big day but I got in a couple of NES games:

Baseball Stars
Miracle Piano (just the cart)

[suckerpunch5]

Today I got a copy of Mr. Mosquito for PS2, for $8, and they threw in vol 183 (pikmin2) Nintendo power. Pretty cool.

[Big Papa Husker]

I just found Vandal Hearts at a local pawn complete for $5. I also checked out some thrift shops and saw a Super Spike V'Ball/Nintendo World Cup cart for NES, but I passed on it for $1.98. Is that going to become rare? heh.

[leorange]

all 5 for $1.99 each at goodwill. they all have the styrofoam, tennis and golf still have the plastic pouch for the cartridge, but only pinball still has the manual.

[-hellvin-]

Well, thrift joe's called back today and said they found my game, so a few hours later I finally got off my lazy ass and headed over:

playstation - vanguard bandits (complete) - 10

Great condition and has everything. It was incorrectly filed because of the Lunar demo that came with it.

Afterwards I decided to head to EBGames. Not much there but they did put out some more DC games so I picked up all the following:

Dreamcast, all complete:

Army Men: Sarge's Heroes - 6
ESPN Nba 2Night - 2
Fur Fighters - 5 (included light reflecting cover)
Ms. Pacman Maze Madness - 5
Striker Pro 2000 - 3

[drivefast1690]

Goodwill hunting again:P

N64(again) with controller, power and A/V cables - $15
Legend of Zelda: OoC - $3 loose
Sonic - $3 Cart+case

Plus I found a cabinet out in the shed, so I got a new place for my systems



Thats my new cabinet.

Thats my systems in there, their all hooked up except the playstations.

[YoshiM]

Well, had to kill a little time so the wife and I did a little thrifting tonight. Scored the following:
