JAG
I stop at a sale late in the day and ask about games and the guy says he has one Atari game, My first thought was let me guess Combat on Atari 2600.
I still ask to see it still thinking it was going to be a common 2600 game and to my surprise he hands me a Jaguar game, I good one at that.
- Alien vs. Predator
Wii
I stop at a sale and ask about games and the lady points to a large box in the corner of the garage, I look inside and see a Wii with a ton of stuff.
It was only $40 for everything and I just bought it, figured I'd look through it later.
- Wii System (black) with two sets of hooks ups (guessing they had a second Wii at some point)
- Several Wii Remotes, Nunchucks, Wii classic Controllers, Fishing controller, Wii Wheels, Balance Board.
- A New Super Mario Bros. Guide

I hit a sale and see a box full of PS3 and PSP games, Some where SEALED. The games where marked at $3, $5 or $10.
I make a stack of games I didn't have in my collection and made a deal for all for $30. The guy was a collector and told me he had a PSP game that was
going for $180 online and he was going to sell it on Ebay. He shows me the game and I lookup the going value and it was $60. I needed the game in my collection
so I offered $40, I show him that the value online was $60 and not $180 and he agreed at $40. So I got it sealed at the price of a CIB.
PS3

- Hitman Absolution (sealed)
- Diablo III Reaper of Souls (sealed)
- Lost Via Domus

And the game he claimed was worth $180 but I got for $40.

And last the Best find of the day.
I stop at a sale and ask about games and the guy says he has a Nintendo, But it wasn't at the house the sale was at. I give him my number and tell him
to call me, Later I get a call and go back to the sale to see he has a NES lot all CIB. We talking about a price and we agreed on $200 for everything.

Now a couple stories of stuff I didn't buy...
I ask about games and the guy says he has a Wii, He shows me a garbage bag with the most disgusting Wii I've ever seen.
It looked like someone vomited all over it and showed signs of bug infested. I didn't even ask a price, just passed.
Another sale I see a Zelda Gold Wii Remote. She wanted $40 for it and she was saying it was a great deal because it was going for $200 online.
I look it up (just incase the price jumped and it was going for $40 on ebay) The remote was pretty used too. People like this drive me crazy.
Anytime someone talks about what its worth online ALWAYS look it up yourself.
Another sale I ask about games and the guys brings out a bunch of Amiibos new on their cards. He claimed they where going for $100 a piece online.
Most all where valued under $20. I didn't need any of these and I just passed.
