I can't believe I never posted in this thread. I've got a few.
While the PS3 was still current gen, I bought a boxed system with no controller for $5 at a yard sale. They thought it was broken. I just pushed the hard drive in snug and did and A/V reset on it. Boom. It's still going strong.
I've bought Panic Restaurant on NES twice. Once for $4 and once for $3. That's bumping up against $400 right now.
I bought Caltron 6-in-1 for $5
I've been doing this for a long time though.
