I stopped at a HUGE community sale, I get there and I'm told that they started the sale the day before and it was "supposed to be only for people who lived in the subdivision" BUT it seemed several resellers got in and bought everything. I almost left but this community was a bit of a drive to get to so I stuck around did find a few things.
GENThe third sale I hit I ask about games and the lady said she had a Sega. She pulls a Console out of a box with a game in it. No hookups just the console. She says I can have it for $5. With the game it came with I couldn't pass.
- Streets of Rage 2
After hitting a few more sales I started to hear your the second person to ask today. Crap someone else is ahead of me asking about games. So I drive past many sales to try and get a head of him. Next thing I know I find two good finds.
First was a sale that on the map the community was giving out listed "Video games" I figured it was going to be nothing good left but there was a few good pieces.
GC- Star Wars Bounty Hunter ($2)
- Gamecube Wavebird Controller with sensor ($3)
N64- Banjo Tooie ($2)
GBC- ESPN National Hockey Night ($1)
PS1- Namco Museum Vol. 1 ($1)
- Playstation Underground vol. 2 - 4 (sealed)
N64I find this one game in a box full of toys marked .25c
- Ready 2 Rumble Boxing
Then at the sale right next door I see a huge tub full of Xbox games priced at $2 each and was surprised to see what games where in there.
XB- Reign of Fire
- Commandos 2
- 50 Cent Bulletproof (sealed)
- Godzilla: Save the Earth
- The House of the Dead III
- Star Wars Jedi Knights II: Jedi Outcast
- Silent Hill 2
- Silent Hill 4: The Room (SEALED)
- Aliens vs. Predator: Extinction
- Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis (probably the rarest game for Xbox)
At another sale I see a PS1 console on the table, with all hookups, an off brand controller and a Memory Card for $2. I was going to pass then I looked inside to see if there was a game inside and yes there was. A game that sells for $20 loose.
- Gekioh: Shooting King
And last I hit a sale and ask about games, the young man said yeah He might have some stuff. He brings out a bunch of scrap games but I see something that made me do a double take. It was a large oversized famicom Legend of Zelda cart.
I look at it and wonder where the hell this came from and the guy showed me it opened up to be a calculator. It was so cool I had to have it. I ask a price and he says $1.
Next I see the Club Nintendo Mario Galaxy Coin (CIB) and that too he wants $1. Next a see two empty NDS boxes and again $1 each. He also had a bunch of Club Nintendo Zelda posters. But he wanted $2 each on those. lol I still bought a few (sorry no pic)
No arcades this week, sorry guys. lol (although I did find a nice cocktail arcade at a cheap price I wanted, but it was a five hour trip one way to go get it.)
The only other point of interest was I bumped into my old "pal" Slick the reseller and he tells me he just picked up a CIB NES Deluxe Set with Rob (no idea just how complete it was) and was asking me if I knew anything about it and if I knew anyone who would want to buy it and I ask a price knowing he just loves to brag and he says at least $300 and I tell him sorry I can't help him. Every time I bump into this guy Hes always bragging and rubbing in about what he found.
Funny thing is every time he asks me what I find I say the same thing. "Meh, Nothing special."
I also bumped into a fellow collector who also does a lot of garage sales and we got to talking and we took each others info down and I hope we can trade extras we get.
