Topic:
Like the "Recently Added to Collection" and/or "Pre-ordered/Waiting For" threads
-but-
strictly for items found or bought at garage/yard sales, Flea Markets, Craig's List, etc.
Okay, okay already...Jeeez!
Fine!
I admit that it was half a case of just being too damned good of a reference/title tie-in to *NOT* use it :P
Raise a hand/Bang yer head ("Metal Health will", indeed, "drive ya' there)" if ya' got the reference(s?) w/o "cheating" (Googling/Wikipedia-ing, etc) 8)
-
So you basically wish to destroy the other recently added threads?
-
It was too good a reference to go unused.

derp...no!
Don't feel bad - you're just very obviously not the..."Target" audience here ;)

It was...*Wasn't* it?!
(I knew that you'd get (at least) one of 'em) ;D

... do we really need two finds threads? ???

I guess if anyone doesn't like this thread they can always just...Turn The Page. *groan* :P

I feel like I'm being Welcomed to Where Time Stands Still...No one "gets" it and No One Will :P

I suppose we could put our stories here, maybe those items you didn't buy. But ya I cant see 2 different threads for finds.
Like this...
Stopped at one sale this weekend and it had a Wii with a bunch of accessories and maybe 10 games and they wanted $70 for it all. The only note worthy game was Mario Party 8.
They also had a PS2 (fat) with about 15 PS2 games and 10 PS1 games. for $50.
I wanted some of the games but they wanted like $10 a game to separate from the systems and the games I wanted where a couple Spyro games for the PS2 and budget titles for the Wii, so I just passed.
Then last weekend there was a lady who had a Nintendo Game Boy Advance SP (black 001 model) with 2 chargers and 2 games. Pokemon Emerald and Bases Loaded (GB) and wanted $30 for it. I tested the Pokemon game and the battery was dead.
She wouldn't take less and I passed. Maybe if it was a 101 and the Pokemon Battery was good I would, But I just didn't want to spend that much. Would any of you guys buy this lot for $30?
-
I really don't think two finds threads are needed here. I think we should just hit the lights on this thread and keep using the Recently Added/Recently Purchased thread.
Or use the thread for a different purpose like TheFlea did above.

Maybe if the game worked and the GBA was in immaculate condition. Funny enough the SP is one of the few Nintendo systems I don't have yet. Back in the day I was fine-and-dandy with the original GBA so I never bothered to pick one up. Same with the DS Lite.

I wonder if anyone is going to let this thread Fade to Black or keep posting here?

Might as well let it fade before the 4 horse-men trample it...
Anyways...I think that Cthulu's calling!

If Cthulu is calling, its time to Quiet the Riot Until it sleeps.

I grew up a mile or 2 from Paul Krook (a...'replacement' or 'secondary' guitarist of the band; iirc) -and- in high school, we actually played together in a "Battle of the Bands" or two...

I sang a bit -and-
*played* a mean rhythm (and a passable lead) guitar until I lost my left hand (over 5 years ago, now).

"Garage DAYS Revisited" is the name of a Metallica album.
The thought/idea that "Garage SALES Revisited" was just too good of a title/reference (relevant to this site & collecting) to *NOT* use...compelled me to make this thread & name it what I did.
Since the opening post, it's been (almost) all Metallica references (names of songs/albums, lyrics, etc) with some other musical references ranging from Anthrax, to Quiet Riot, to Pink Floyd, to the Beatles)...

Was that ever released on CD? I used to have the original Cassette release of the Garage Days Revisited EP.

According to Amazon ==> it looks like the original Garage Days Revisited was on vinyl & cassette while the RE-Revisited version is available on CD 8)
