    Default Actually scored some good games Today.

    Few and far between but the last couple times I went hunting Ive done pretty good.


    Went to the flea market and scored this stuff Sunday "Sorry Lexicon :P "

    Master System:

    Enduro Racer complete
    Shinobi complete
    After Burner complete
    Wonder Boy Monster Land complete

    Genesis:

    Elemental Master boxed
    Mutant League Football SEALED "The wrapping was falling off so I opened it and sure enought it was new and untouched...WOW those collector cards actually exist!"
    Beyond Oasis loose
    Warsong loose with instructions

    NES:

    Mega man 2 loose
    Mega Man 3 loose
    Mega Man 5 loose
    City Connection loose "special request from my friend who wanted to play it "

    Sega CD

    CD Backup Ram cart complete
    Star Wars Rebel Assault complete
    Heimdall complete
    Silpheed complete
    Brutal paws of fury complete "case is cracked"
    Eye of the Beholder D&D complete
    Another eye of the beholder NEW and Sealed

    "Which by the way since I have 2 the sealed one is up for trade or sale if anyones interested"

    Also found a View-Master you know the thing you look at pictures through when you were a kid except this ones black and made of metal it had no date but the round thing it had with it is from Night Before Christmas (c) 1958 kinda cool.

    Spent about 35 bucks on everything not counting having to buy my friend drinks and cigarettes and Mc Donalds.

    Im happy.

    Real nice. Consider yourself paying full going price for the complete Sega CD Backup cart, and getting everything else for free.

    does the Viewmaster viewer you found look like this?



    If so that's the Model C View-Master, made from 1946-1956. It's made of black bakelite and is a very durable viewer. See if it says Sawyers anywhere on it. That's a nice find.

    Viewmaster has been around since 1938. Sawyers was the original company that made the viewers and reels. The company has changed hands many times. GAF, Tonka, etc. Fisher Price produces them now.

    Nowadays the reels are all children's subject matter with a few science reels thrown in. Most notably the Discovery Channel series. In the early days they also had several reels based on sports, countries, tourist attractions, history. There's also a lot that were produced by companies to promote there products, services or fascilities. Neat stuff.

    Look it up on ebay, the stuff's pretty pricey too.

    Yep its a Sawyers one same as in that pic.

    Not that pricey though I checked it out on ebay and it doesnt seem to be insanely valuable or anything.

    But what the hell I think it cost me 4 bucks or something like that.

    I might even try to find some reels for it the one it came with is kinda messed up and doesnt turn right.

    For 45 years old Im surprised a piece of carboard lasted that long anyway.

    Jesus imagine NES boxes 25 years from now....


    @ port , Yeah not a bad day. Im gonna ebay the backup cart, megaman5 and Warsong and figure Illl actually come out ahead as well as have new stuff for my collection and to play with. Thats the best way to justify it anyway is to show a profit.

    Not to complain or anything but when the hell am I gonna find a boxed Vectrex for 5 bux or Adventurevision or something? I mean scoring a complete Chrono Trigger for 5 bux type finds are cool but I figure after a few years Id have ONE shit my pants game find story... Plus I wanna play vectrex Prototypes too just never ran across a prototype either.

    Dear GOD I dig through enough peoples worthless shit cant ya throw me a Micky Mantle card for a quarter or SOMETHING?!

    All I got are these stupid upside down airplane stamps...

    My life and perception has changed, but my principals are the same.
