1st Party Dreamcast Controller With Green VMU In It - 1
Saw this in a box of misc stuff and 3 other Dreamcast controllers, others being 1 1st party & 2 generics. I asked how much for the one I got and the guy asked me how much I would pay so I said a buck. He countered with saying a buck each and when I said I would just take the VMU then for a buck he changed his mind and said a buck for both would do.

Sunday when I reached the flea market,I visited a vendor who had a Razor E200 scooter that another vendor who I talked to in the past wanted me to fix...It was dropped off there for me..Here I am pushing my daughter in a baby carriage with my two sons on two razor dirtbikes,UGH how am I going to get this thing home.
.to make the long story (below) short,I bought it for $20.00,got it going as I have the charger .We’ve been riding it around the house lol.
The vendor has two scooters,this is one of three vendors that asked if I’d fix these type scooters for them to resell.
One bike has no rear wheel or plate as he says,that’s a bit to much to fix to resell..
I explained to all of them at different times that after parts,batteries,repair,buying the charger and ,shoot lets not leave out labor cost... it’s not worth it..after all of that your not going to get your money back.
..they look at me like I’m going to magically make the bikes work but each bike is a different problem,I don’t do the repairs I do for profit I do it for My kids..I buy the bikes and fix them up with no thought of resale.
Vendors hear what I say and it goes in one ear and out the other,they just wanna make max money.
I can’t get myself into spending for parts for these scoots then the vendor say,oh no I wont pay that.
Of course every time we bring the bikes to the flea markets we are asked if selling over and over ‘but’ people are not willing to pay what these bikes cost..I’m not going to sell a fully working $400.00 electric dirt bike for $25.00
...
I may get the missing wheel scooter for parts if cheap..
I'm just glad razorama.com is still around selling new parts for all their legacy electrics. I rebuilt some Pocket Rocket PR200's for a relative's friend last year and it was nice to show them an exact parts list with prices for everything they'd need and then my final work price on top of that. I'm waiting for the day they discontinue some of the old parts and blow them out so I can stock up.

bought the portable snes Supaboy today, the others are from last week.
Super Mario Rpg runs fine on it.
Could you do me a favor? Flip your Mario RPG over and which revision is it? It's in the small print on the sticker on the back.
Oh and today I got a free PS1 (exciting yes?) with 2 Sony brand memory cards in exchange for repairing my friends NES. Went with the boil the 72 pin method. Shocked the hell out of me when it actually worked.
Flea Market:
The day of the sports games.
Not a bad turnout...found lots of game items just common stuff..Original Xbox system consoles only..Price $20.00 each.passed.
Bins of misc games that I smiled when looking knowing later other game pickers will be doing the same search.though they may pick up the BS I pass up..
Prices on things were ok just not any bargains..games worth $5.00 were $5.00 Firm..
lots and lots of sports games...
Then I ran into this: $200.00
$30.00.Electric Car for my Daughter....The vendor didn’t know anything about how to plug it in or where the battery was,someone unplugged the battery ..came with good battery and charger..
Has lights,on off key switch,horn forward and reverse..It’s Mint.
Flea Market:
If you know anything about me I race small motorcycles so when I saw the next item I stopped short.
From what I do know it’s a COOLSTER Chinese made honda clone..a bad designed,poor metals used bike..
Great as a backyard woods blaster if found cheap,but for racing It’ll fall apart one race in..
I believe it’s a 125cc manual clutch bike..
Another vendor who knows I like this stuff was pushing me to buy it when I tried to look it over that I didn’t get to look as at it much as I wanted to..,it was so badly rusted,the cables frozen rusted..
In this condition maybe stolen,dumped,seized motor ..
I attempted to kick it over and it felt like pushing my foot into thick mud,not right..
$300.00 Firm for a china bike in this condition... I passed..
Just way to much money to try and savage,save it..
..
first time I have posted any finds in a while, usually get too wrapped up in something and I forget.
Picked up this TV and A/V switcher a few days ago at goodwill as-is store
$15 for the TV $5 for the A/V switcher, neither one had a remote
this is why I picked up the tv, SCART! on a US tv. Thought it odd but it worked and was cheap, has a lot of inputs for a tv this size especially one from '06
Backside of A/V switcher, don't know if this works yet, theres something loose inside of it. Figure if it doesn't I'll harvest it for parts for A/V mods and what have ya.
Got these last few last Wednesday (11/6/13)
APF TV Fun, $8 w/ power brick from goodwill retail
Human Canonball and Defender for $2 ea at local "pickers" shop. High price on these but I needed something to add to the bill to use my debit card
Finally, the reason I needed to find extra to throw on the bill for debit
Xonox Artillery Duel / Spikes Peak Double Ender $4! (or also $2 ea)
From looking online it seems your monitor/tv was not sold in the US,what does it say about what kind of power it needs.
I think it was sold in the US, because it seems that it was made in Tijuana, Baja California in Mexico, where many Samsung products for the US market were produced.
I don't remember many products like this, it is very interesting for me because i have a few scart cables for my consoles and no longer have any video processor or monitor that supports scart ... makes me wanna get one !
Las calles no son basurero, POR FAVOR TIREN LA BASURA EN SU LUGAR !!!!
Hmm look at the RF input. That's no US socket.
