The Small Scores Thread: Part 2!

[Sauza12]

Not much today.  I already had one of the Captain Power tapes I picked up, the one with the red sleeve, so if anyone wants it shoot me a PM.

The Play n Trade guys called me yesterday to alert me of some things that just came in.  Oh baby!



$30 but missing styrofoam tray, manuals, and had a NES Advantage instead of one of the original controllers.  I do have an extra controller to complete the set and the Advantage is FS/FT.  The Power Pad has its box and looks very good - possibly unused.



Replaced my loose Decap Attack and Sonic & Knuckles with CIB versions, so the loose go to the FS/FT list.  Dragon Warrior III is also a dupe so FS/FT.  I had never seen the Captain Clean for Nintendo cleaning supplies before, but very cool and free.  They were a US product from a company called Pfantone.  Love the oddities.

Sweet Power Set!!! I hope to get one eventually too.

The guy I got my last 80 game PS2 lot found a few more games that he forgot during the first round so he gave them to me at no charge when I went to pick up the Foot Pedal I forgot last time. Apparently we had something like a Car Boot Sale here today and my wife grabbed a PSP for me for $15.

I want to see some ABBA Singstar gameplay on your Youtube page, Mister!

I picked up a copy of Stunt Kids at my local Gamer's for $20, as well as a few game boy games I needed.

Odd though, the clerk commented on my game, and said that he only needed 20 more NES titles for a complete set. That was cool, although I hate the idea of a collector working at the store because he would probably pick up anything I need as soon as it comes in.

Anyway, he then tells me he owns a game that only 5 exist,  - the Nintendo World Championship. I kind of chuckle to myself because obviously this guy is just trying to show off or something and he doesn't even have the facts right. Then I told him about how I picked up Bubble Bobble Part 2 cheap and he says "Oh yeah, that ones worth about 40 bucks right?"

LOL.

Some thrift store finds. Got a Sega Dreamcast with two controllers, power cord and composite A/V cords for a lovely $8 and it works flawlessly. Also picked up a couple games.

High Seas Havoc (GEN)
Thunder Force II (GEN)
Mission Impossible (GBC)
Street Racer (2600)

I was stomping around in Wempster's part of the woods today, but had a short schedule there in Gainesville because we had an agenda - meet up with my roommate's parents to move some furniture, and attend the bi-annual Friends of the Library sale that I've heard so much about. Book porn incoming...

Amazing that I find Age of Empires III CE when we were just talking about it in chat on Friday. Price? $10 CIB.


Price in Total: < $100

[techwizard]

dat AOEIII CE...any chance you'd be willing to part with it?

[Fleach]

Crabby, I hope you have a good set of pipes to rock those singing games.

Razor, you're making me envious with the Dreamcast haul. That system keeps eluding me.

I'll be hitting the thifts tomorrow so hopefully I'll have some scores to report back with.

Consider it yours. I have one already. I know how you got screwed over picking one up last year.  Everyone should have a Dreamcast.

In case SirPsycho checks out my images...
Hey Graham - I finally found a Terry Prachett novel! It only took me travelling 2 hours to a library sale to find one!

Most of the strategy guides were $0.10-$0.25, and I'll likely have a couple dupes (I know I already picked up 2 of the same Secret Codes for Handhelds). If anyone's interested, I'll get a running list of duplicates guides.

I think I found it, Small Gods? I don't have that one yet.

Wow shadow!

Yeah, that's definitely book porn.  Dragon Warrior Nintendo Power guide, Stephen King novels, and SUSE 9.0 manual?  Sweet!
