Mario Kart Double Dash (GC) - complete and nice $9.98

Got 10% off the total as well!

You were following in my footsteps today! I had that Game Shark in my hands, but decided to leave it for the next guy. Glad someone that can actually appreciate it found it!

I always wonder about stuff like this - how I can get there at almost noon and have something like that still sitting there. So, did you get anything from this place while you were there? I was hoping to find some Saturn games while I was there, but nothing.

Nothing too great. Stopped by a Gamestop that my friend works at and snagged a Lego Indiana Jones figure/keychain along with a Forza Motorsports 3 lanyard. My cousin got a Magna Carta mini-artbook, a Resident Evil T-Shirt, and a Tekken calendar. He also snapped up Tokobot new on PS2 for $5.

Muh? Tokobot came out for PS2? I thought that was a PSP exclusive! The game has had me intrigued though... let me know if he likes it!

Buh, the game came out on PS2 first, didn't it?

Tokobot came out on PSP first. Then, it was ported to PS2.

Was rainy today, so not many sales. I did get some cool non-gaming stuff.

Attention music nerds you will like what you're about to read:

I bought 2 Beatles albums, Rubber Soul, and Sgt. Pepper's LHCB thinking they were 8-tracks. Turns out they're Muntz 4-tracks and they're worth a lot of money! Yay! I also got a copy of Yoko & John's Live Peace Concert in Toronto in 1969. It has a very basic black & white label that looks completely different from a usual example of this concert on 8-track. Looks like somthing "OMG BBQ RAREZ!1!1!!!1".

I also got a really cool Bontempi B1 toy organ (w/original box). This might go with my keyboard setup. It's so cool and 70s-ish.

I also got one of these. Looks neat enough.

That is one... very unfortunate name they chose for that piano thiing.

nice craigslist find for $100

Can anyone see the Gem of the lot





Also about a dozen of the ATari 7800 games are Factory sealed and pretty much all the boxed ones still are wrapped with just a small slit at the top to take the game out

Goodwill dock sale again and all I can say is WOW!!!

I've never seen so many electronics stuff at this sale before. 5-6 giant boxes of stuff.

I spent $58 on a some stuff and got an Alesis AirFX Theremin effects processor, a Boss chromatic tuner, a bunch of CB/HAM radio stuff, A big bag of electronics parts with potentiometers, toggle switches, and what looks to be like 50 old computer/radio/electronics chips, a HD-DVD player, a stock Nissan car stereo, and as I was walking to check out I found a Bose AVS3-2-1 Media Center on top of a box of junk. I also got a lot more but I'm currently going through it all. The Alesis AirFX is quite a find, it should be worth something like $75-100 if it works and the Bose Media Center is worth $40 if it's broken and probably around $125 if it works.

No video game stuff though, but I don't see too much of a problem with that.

Picked up Assassin's Creed II Collector's Edition for the 360 from GameStop today.
Went to Best Buy and got Puscifer - V is for Vagina CD.

Picked up three gameboy games in a baggie at value village for 4.99. There were mega man zero and dragon ball z (the card game one) for gba and some looney tunes collector alert game for gbc. It was nice because they usually have every gameboy out there at 4.99 or 6.99 by itself and then I have to wait for half price or dollar day sales.

Nah, I didn't buy anything. I was hoping for Saturn games as well. It seemed odd to find a Game Shark but no games. I'm wondering if this was somehow left over from the last few Saturn games they took in (been a couple months now, I think).

Yeah, could be. I do notice that they're not real quick about getting their backstock out to the floor. They have quite a stack of games behind the buy counter that never seem to make it on the floor quick enough. Who knows, they're probably all just PS2 sports games anyway.
