On the same trip, I got more than a little excited when I saw Super Smash Bros Melee with a $3 tag on it.  Turns out some bastard stole the disc from Goodwill.  The bright side is they gave me a very nice case, manual, and inserts for nothing.

I did that with my Zelda Wind waker. I got the case, manual, all inserts and even the guide for free cause the game was stolen out ... then I got lucky and found the game disk only in a lot. Also, Goodwill has a bad habit of having the games stolen/lost. The ones around here put the disks in a big binder and are still almost never there. I think its an employee issue. Ironically, the last game I bought at a Goodwill was SSB Melee for $3 myself.

This Movie Trading Company you keep bringing up sounds quite awesome. You should post some pics of the place, sometime. I have a place that sells classic games and movies, but nothing rare ever and she keeps the prices according to Amazon so you're really not saving money, either.

And MetalJesusRocks is awesome!

I picked up Heavenly Sword and Infamous 2 for pretty cheap today. But I was really looking for Folklore. Ha

I'll try to post pics of some of the places I've been going. Movie Trading Company is actually a chain. If you've ever heard of Vintage Stock, it's the same thing. They just have a different name in Texas. It's huge and mainly picked over. But it is really good for two things specifically, 1) the last generation. A plethora of XBox games can be found for $5. Same with PS2 and Gamecube 3) CIB games. They don't have a lot. But they don't up the price because it has the box. Other than that, you are generally paying retail.

There is a place called FX Game Xchange that has quite a few Dreamcast games. It is a quality used game store. OK prices.

Entertainmart is really good for modern stuff. Great prices and baffling huge. This would be a good one for pictures.

But the deals Dallas/Fort Worth Metro seem to mainly be in Flea markets and Bazaars. If you want an idea about the area, watch the Game Chasers on youtube. Most of their episodes take place here.

Now the store I miss is Thrillhouse Games in Tulsa, OK. Only place I've seen with an entire rack of Turbo Grafx 16 games. I've seen multiple CDX systems. And amazing prices. I am going to have to make a road trip back to Tulsa just for that place.

We don't have either Vintage Stock or Movie Trading Company in Northern California. I wish we did. I've seen Gamester81's video of Vintage Stock, and it looks awesome. It looks like it's specifically catered to me! Video games, comics, music, and memorabelia!

We have Vintage Stock stores here in OKC. They are great to visit. I know most of the employees by face when I walk in.

As far as Thrillhouse : http://www.nintendoage.com/index.cfm?FuseAction=Users.Home&User=tiptopjames is the owner/operator of it. He is a pretty good guy. You can always hit him and make deals with him on Nintendo Age.

Cool. Thanks for the info. Before I moved to Dallas, I would stop in there weekly. He always held SEGA stuff for me to check out since I was one of the few (possibly only) SEGA collectors in the area.  And, yes, he is a very good guy.

Went to FX Game Xchange and got a decent deal on a Master System Bundle

All games are CIB minus a few which are missing instructions. It cost $100 which is not a great deal by any means. But considering I would have to get most SMS games through ebay. It comes out to about the shipping fee per game ($3.57 per game). So, I reasoned it to myself that way. Plus, I just got a new job, so this is a kind of celebration gift to myself. 

Astro Warrior
Aztec Adventure
Black Belt
Black belt
Thunder Blade
Thunder Blade
Time Soldiers
Transbot
Super Tennis
