Radiant's Ongoing Ebay Auctions
I got the Super Nintendo yesterday at Goodwill for $9.99, there is no yellowing on it what so ever.
The Atari 2600 I also got yesterday from Value Village for 19.99, came with 3 controllers. The Atari was so dirty I had to take a picture of it before and after. The inside of the Atari was disgusting...all this unknown brown stuff...looked like a battery exploded inside of it. Found a few little spiders inside of it also. Took awhile to get everything cleaned.
The Intellivision I got for $50, got marked down from $100 at my local thrift store (If it doesn't sell within 2 weeks, its half off) came with 36 games and the organizer.
Final Fantasy 8 was $5 totally mint.
Today I also bought Mega Man 2 and Mega Man 3 for the NES from a pawn shop for $5 a piece.
Also picked up 5 Atari 2600 games for $2 a piece, nothing to amazing just commons.
If anybody is curious, I uploaded pictures of the Atari before and after I cleaned it. Just click this link.
Before and After

I found SNATCHER for SEGA CD at Goodwill in Houston, today. Case and manual in great condition.
No disc, though. Talk about a high turning into a low.
I asked if they might know what happened, but they said what I already knew - it had been stolen. What frustrates me is that someone would steal a disc to avoid paying $2.99 for a complete copy of Snatcher. I asked if I could keep the case and they said sure.
So free Snatcher case and manual (glass half full)!
Responded to a Craigslist ad:
$50 for everything, including the N64 cords, a rumble pack, and two memory cards. But finally, at long last, OGRE BATTLE 64!!! I am sooooo happy to have finally found one! With manual even! Let me tell you, they are in immaculate condition. This is only the second OB I have seen in the wild, the first was at a GameStop and in pretty crappy condition. So with this and THPS, I now only need THPS3 and I will have my entire want list of US N64 games!

When I saw the gold controller, my heart almost skipped a beat. When I went into his apartment he had a bunch of consoles old and new, so I was hoping maybe he had gotten the gold controller from EGM, but alas, it is just a generic gold controller. However that is replacing the old gray one on my N64 set.

I hate that. Half of the cases in my Goodwill seem to be empty. I can just picture the types of people who steal the discs too, and I want to punch them in the face. I'd bet money that whoever stole that Snatcher doesn't even have a Sega CD, they just saw it was a game and decided to steal it. It's Goodwill people! If you absolutely have to steal something go to Walmart, leave Goodwill alone.
I normally don't report on what I pick up at GameStop but I was surprised on my lunch break the other day when I walked in and found 2 Wavebirds. They aren't uncommon or anything but they normally don't last when they are in the stores either so I was pretty happy. Also, I picked up a copy of Mobile Light Force 2 which I couldn't find for some reason for a little while even though it is just a $4 game.

Hit a few new thrifts and a few old and came up with that stuff.
Here's some recent stuff for me --
Hanshin Tigers version Neo Geo Pocket (Why can't they make a Chiba Lotte Marines Version?):
A lot of 14 N64 games I won off Yahoo Auctions -- US$35 shipped! The picture is pretty dark -- but the lot has two games I quite wanted, the Densha de Go! and Animal Crossing:
And two new MVS games, Blazing Star and Sengoku 3:
You got the Disney DDR game, now go find the dance mat
I picked up some Saturn stuff from someone at work today. It is a model 1 unit with cables, manual and 1 controller. It came with a few complete games:
Gex
Croc
Tomb Raider
Dragonheart: Fire & Steel
Virtua Fighter Remix
Saturn Choice Cuts sampler
I got all of that for $30. Not a great deal, but some stuff that I can use.

decent morning at garage sales and a couple thrifts.
DDR and Time Crisis were marked 3 each and I got them for 5. Unlimited Saga and PSO were marked $8 each, and I paid 5 each and also bought BeyBlade for a dollar. Not sure why I got it other than it is mint and, well, it was only a buck. Nunchuck was $5 at a GW, and Sonic I also only got because it is mint, CIB, and was 1.80.
Was kind of bummed that a TI-83+ I picked up doesn't work, but it was at GW, so I can return it (unless someone here wants it for 10 shipped).
Super Mario 2 (NES, cart and sleeve) $2 at a local media shop
