Koudelka

Fun times.

Grabbed:
Big Nose the Caveman (L $2)
The Adventure of Link (L $3)

Both are gold and their covers are in great shape, just need to remove some markered names on the back. Anyone know what the A/B position switch does on Caveman?

I found myself a copy of Swordquest: Waterworld for $15 at a local flea market this weekend. Usually this dealer's games are way overpriced, but they don't really know what they have. $15 for a Waterworld ain't something you come across every day. So far it has been my rarest find ever in the wild (R7). Finally some luck

I hung out with Sarkenobi yesterday and got this:

PlayStation:
Ridge Racer Type 4 (complete) - $2.95

Everything is in great shape. I've wanted this game for some time, but it seemed like every copy I found prior to this one wasn't complete or had extremely scratched up discs.

Quite soon to post again, apologies if im pissing anyone off :P :P :P I guess im just having good luck recently!



As i offload all my spare consoles picked up for pennies at the boot sales to Gamestation on a weekly basis, i always have a trade/credit voucher at the ready... I think its been a good 5 months since theyve seen any cash come out of my wallet!
So i picked up the two boxed SNES games at £2.50 each (In the £4.99 Retro Buy One Get One Free) I already had them unboxed, so ill keep them boxed and resell the spare loose carts
Resi Evil is for my eBay shop, tiny profit.
The Need For Speed Demo was free
And last but not least, finally found Yoshi's Safari, £4.99

And for an awesome score! I picked this up for £2.50 today



Its the Single from the Movie Nothing ill be listening to, but with that Picture disc, its going on my wall i think!

So I got up early today, packed up the stuff I was supposed to send, left around 8, and got to the flea market around 9. I looked around and saw nothing of interest at first, then I went to the middle and found this:


That McAfee thing is pretty worthless but it was only three bucks so nyah. Those DC games? Well, House of the Dead cost me $1, and the Tony Hawk game doesn't have a disc so I got the thing for fifty cents. I'll pick up the disc later. (*hint hint*

I'm kinda ticked off because some guy beat me to the place by three minutes, and he walked away with freakin Marvel Vs Capcom and Ready 2 Rumble Boxing for a buck each. DAMNIT.

So a bit later I keep looking around and find nothing, as just as I am about to leave... I noticed a double jewel case on a barrel in the place I buy PC games at. So I walk towards it and see the name "Final Fantasy"... I get to it and what is it?

See for yourself.



It cost me $6. It was going to cost me $4 but the seller noticed it was three CDs so she upped the price. I hung around for a little bit in case anything else popped up but no luck... so I left, and went to GameStop, where I bought these three DVDs for $10 (and NFL2K for 49 cents :P)



The NFL2K is a wrong version, though. The case is for an original version, but the one inside the case is a Sega All-Stars version. I may go back there on thursday and ask for a replacement. YES, a stupid disc ticks me off. It's the wrong one, dammit. :P

So there ya go. My finds for today.

The nes was 49.99 at replays. Works perfectly, all inserts, all plastic, all manuals, and its even got the original price tag of $99.99 from Kmart.

I finally got boxes for some of my NES games, they were $2 each, but I'm missing the inserts for punch out, the manual to Megaman 2 and Guardian Legend, but inside the Guardian legend box was all the posters, inserts, and the plastic to cover the cart.

Finally got Splatterhouse 3 complete, and Shining force II and Beyond Oasis I won in a lot of ebay. The total was 35.50 for both.

All the Dreamcast stuff I bought off a classmate, he only wanted $20 for everything......

The Phantasy Star II I've wanted for years.....

And the Month is still young! I gotta say, for a college student on a limited budget, this is pretty good.

I'm not sure yet. I'm not too fond of the game, and I don't even own a playstation. :P

Did you say a NEW Copy of CVS2 for PS2?? DAMN! I haven't seen a brand new copy since 2002.

Yep, out of the four EB's, one Gamestop, and various other PS2 carrying stores, this was the only new copy I've come across. And like I said, the used copies (there were three at the same store) were going for $29.99, which is why I got the funny response from the clerk while spewing his mandatory used sales pitch.

I thought I'd get a response about the new Guilty Gear X if anything...

(Picture of NES action set and complete dreamcast)

A Complete NES action set? And it looks like its brand new! Score!

And you did great on the dreamcast, I haven't found anything for the dreamcast in a reasonable price range.. Well, excpet for a couple of DC games for $1 each, but that's about it, Nobody ever prices the sysems under $30 around here..

Street Fighter 2 Special Champion Edition...for Free! I went to go pick up my Mega Man X4 from the Special FX, since they repair disc for $3 a pop. A kid was trading in some Genesis games and they were mostly sports titles. After the guy at FX told him he wasn't gonna get much for it, I saw he had Street Fighter 2, so I asked him, "Hey how much you want for that?" and the guy looks at me and goes "Here, since it's pretty much worth shit!", hands me the game, and he storms out all pissed off at the clerk :lol:

Went out to the flea market today, nothing much honestly. Bought another Power Joy III bootleg Famicom controller and again this one doesn't work. That makes four I've went through. I told my girlfriend to quit letting me buy this crap. Did find a couple things though, new small slide container storage (15 trays) for my controller parts inventory, Pac-Man for the Atari Computer family and a Pioneer LaserActive control pad...





It's in good condition, cleaned it up and it works fine. Anyone out there trying to complete a LaserActive Mega LD Module?

Yesterday:

Stuff to pick up a NES game Josh changed his mind on: Dragon Spirit: The New Legend. Plus the Half Life Game of the Year edition I tried to get was gone, since the Half Life 2 I bought yesterday had HL1 manual in it. I thought I could buy the HL1 and switch manuals and keep them both but nooooo.

Swung to Target to get the other MMORPGs on clearance. The Station Pass was gone but I picked up Dungeons and Dragons: Stormreach. Gonna keep it sealed (along with Auto Assault) until I actually play the 7/14 day trials for free. Gotta have options if I hate the games in trials!
