Have you ever gotten something really valuable or rare for extremely cheap or found an amazing deal on something you were looking for? :D. The best deal I ever got was on a NES which I got for Free with 5 uncommon games and 2 paddles. A man in his mid 20s was moving out and he was leaving things on the sidewalk with For free signs and I had a talk with him for a while. I guess he was moving away for college and he didn't have room and didn't want to go through the trouble of posting everything or having a yard sale and he was pinched for time. so he said whatever I wanted I could have. He was cool as an ice cube :). I also got a Lava Lamp and a Homer Simpson plush from him lol. I was so excited. What is the best score you have ever got? :D |

$1 for a CIB Dragon Force for the Sega Saturn, part of a 20 game lot that were all $1 each at my goodwill bookstore. |

I got a copy of Congo Bongo for the Intellivision for 3 bucks once. (For those of you who don't know, it's considered the most uncommon/rare game for the system) |

An entire Xbox 360 Retail kiosk for free. One of the perks of being able to claim right of salvage in a retail store. Sadly, I did have to get rid of it because of a move, but I was able to salvage the system and controllers to convert it into a christmas gift for my cousins. I've still got most of the smaller things though, which would be 2 PSPs (1 1000, 1 Go), several full games for the Original Xbox and 360, and a bunch of demo discs for the Gamecube, PSP, PS2, and 360. The 360 Pirates of the Caribbean demo disc is a nasty one as it automatically formats the system's hard drive and disables the guide button. I also still have my Super Smash Bros. Brawl retail display, as it's a perfect holder for my currently playing pile. Otherwise, for where I had to shell out money, probably getting Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn for $5 at a movie rental place's liquidation sale or a CIB Japanese Pokemon Stadium GS for $10. There was also one time where Microsoft was having a BOGO sale on their site, but screwed it up something fierce, where you could get the more expensive games for free, so by buying Angry Birds: Star Wars for $20, I was able to get the new releases Dark Souls II and South Park Stick of Truth for free. |
