It's time for Foxhack's Stories of Fail!
I went to the flea market and didn't see much of anything. Except for a pile of taped DVD+Rs in cases... so I ask how much and the seller says $2. I figure, $2 for 11 DVD+Rs in cases isn't so bad so I pay.
I get home and unwrap the tape, and realize... that there's only -one- DVD+R. The rest are Lightscribe CD-Rs. Well F me. :P Oh well, I can use the CD-Rs for something, I guess...
Got a Jakks-Pacific plug and play at a thrift shop for $4. I'm going to turn it into one of these mini cabinets:

I'm extremely happy right now! I picked up a CIB copy of Popful Mail from a local Craigslist seller. The best part is that I only paid $15.00 for it!
I also got a few less notable finds over the past few weeks:
Daxter for $4.99 (Used, CIB)
Lego Indiana Jones for $14.99 (Used, CIB)
Official Sony PSP UMD Case for $14.99 (New) - I really like this case because it uses magnets to hold the UMDs in place instead of clips.
Pokemon 4ever for $6.99 (New)
Pokemon: Jirachi Wishmaker for $6.99 (New)
Just won another 360 promo soundtrack. Can't wait for that baby to arrive.

Dock sale.
Got a dirty PSOne with a broken CD door hinge for a couple bucks, couldn't bear to leave it just sitting there, and perhaps it'll be good for parts/a portable project . There's an third party memory card stuck in it so I guess that's a bonus.
Also got a almost complete copy of Toy Story 2 (PSX) for $0.50.
I got a lot of small misc things; calculators, XM radio stuff, and PDAs this time. Most interesting find today was a Psion Organiser II with a 64k card and a "MATHS" card. From what I can tell the Psion Organiser series was the first PDA ever made, the one I got in particular was made in 1986.
Saw a lonely copy of Pokemon Pinball (GBC) and an original model 1 Genesis, loose. But to be honest I need those things like I need a hole in the head.
/me hides behind a couch from the Sega fanboys with pitchforks and torches.
I saw this IDIOT throw a freakin' POLK AUDIO XM radio receiver (XRt12) into a box, damaging it. I rushed to and and saw the guy had cracked it's front faceplace. I still bought it anyway, though. Why can't more people respect good quality audio stuff?
Check my auctions here! I am in the business of finding off-beat things, including video game stuff!
View my collection!
Bought a new in box Dreamcast 4X Memory Card (first party) and a copy of Quest For Glory Anthology for $5 total. I'm keeping the memory card to keep backups of my old game saves...
I finally found Star Wars: Masters of Teras Kasi! I am so excited, even though it has no manual!
I also found MGS for the PS1 Greatest Hits. Are the discs the exact same or should they have a GH logo on them?

Found today, all for only $14
All I managed to find today was a Sega power supply, marked as being for the Power Base. I'm assuming that's for the SMS, since I didn't think the Power Base Converter needed a power supply.
Decided to check out toysrus (looking for the exlusive transformers animated figures that SHOULD be out)
turns out they are clearancing out a shitload of mediocre to decent games, I picked up:
I passed up alot of other games including samurai showdown collection(hated the series) and the tru exclusive soul bubbles and the collector's edition of afro samurai. (I left the rest for the creepy ebay reseller assholes) might go back for a copy of soul bubbles.
not bad for the price at all, also picked up a shoebox of ninja turtles and some transformers at a yard sale on the way back.
stopped at another yardsale and picked up a large plastic tote filled with power rangers ninja turtles and beast wars figures:
now I just need the time to sort them out ;-)

Samurai Showdown Anthology gets a pretty penny doesn't it?
