I went to a Goodwill yesterday and got this:

PlayStation:

They were all mint. I haven't been this please with an eBay purchase in a while but then again, I'm pretty anal.

A bunch of catalogs, manuals, overlays (some original, some copies)

90 Warranty Card

Tron movie mail-order coupon (get Tron on VHS for $60! You could get the Laserdisc for like $25 and the video disc for $20).

All for the price of about $63 with shipping.

And at the state fair (and pictured)

At a garage sale this morning I picked up an Atari 2600 Jr in the box (maroon) for $5. I already had one in a silver box but I hadn't seen the maroon one before.

[Kitsune Sniper]

I got Diablo II Battle Chest for $4 at the flea market, complete, but the box was ripped open. I'm wondering if I should sell it or not, mostly because the game is highly addictive...
