XB360A sale advertised Video games and when I get there I see a stack of crappy PS2 games and a couple systems all overpriced. But There was the official Microsoft Professional Steering wheel. This was a nice made wheel accessory. They had it marked at $30 but I was able to get them to sell it for $20.
Found a random Atari 2600 joystick for .25c
Hit a large community sale and out of 24 sales I only found one sale that had games. These where $1 each.

PS1 - Blues Clues: Blue's Big Musical (sealed)

After that community sale I raced to a sale that advertised Gamecube games, I stop there and the lady was just setting up. I ask about the Gamecube games and she said she didn't know where they where, come back later. I look around and notice a milk crate with gamecube madden game and tell her I think I found them. I look through and find only about 4 Gamecube games and some crappy 360 games. I only found one Gamecube game I wanted But I saw one other thing in the crate that caught my eye. She wanted $10 for it but I was able to get both games for $9.
GC- Mission: Impossible
GBC - Pokemon Pinball (BRAND NEW SEALED)

In another big community sale after many no finds, I finally see a table with games. A few PS2 & PS1 stuff marked .50c a piece.
I asked If they had anything else and the guy said ya I had some more he was thinking of selling. He brings out a small tub full of PS1 games. At .50c a piece here's what i got.

Stopped at a random sale and asked about games, the lady said she had a whole bunch and one was worth $15 she told me. She brings out a stack of PS2 games, and one 360 game. I asked which one she was worth $15 and she didn't know. So I offered $15 for the stack I picked out and she agreed.
XB360- Game Party in Motion
PS2- Dynasty Warriors 5
- Dynasty Warriors 5: Xtreme Legends
- Final Fantasy X-2
- Final Fantasy XII
- Xenosaga

NESHit a random sale and saw a Nintendo Power Set box under the table, I quickly pulled it out and saw it only had the Power Pad, Styrofoam and other baggies inside. I saw a $10 price tag on it. I asked the lady about the system or games and she said she was keeping the system and games. So I asked if she'd take less because it was only the box, I even offered to let her keep the power pad. She refused to take less then $10. It was in a lot better shape then the one I picked up earlier this year so I paid her the $10.
And last the best pickup this weekend. I was having a bad day finding anything on Thursday, I was out for three hours and only found that Fable Guide. Was about to pack it up and head home when I saw a garage sale sign and followed it, At first I couldn't find this sale. So I was about to give up when I finally see another sign. I follow it to a subdivision in the middle of nowhere. I find the sale and walk up and see nothing but baby clothes and toys. I ask the lady about games and she at first told me no her husband still wants his 360. But then she said she had a Nintendo she doesn't use anymore. So She goes inside and brings out two tubs. I open the first and see a Wii and N64 stuff just dumped in this tub. She said she didn't want to sell the Wii, so I pulled out all the N64 stuff. I look in the second tub and see a fat 360 and NES stuff. Again she said the 360 was her husbands and she couldn't sell it (you can keep it lady) lol
I find not only one NES and two NES systems and several games and I saw at the bottom several NES games COMPLETE IN BOX!
I pull everything for the NES out and had a nice stack of NES and N64 stuff. I asked a price and she starts counting the games and tells me how many of the games are like new in their boxes. She quotes me $30 for the NES pile.
I asked what about the N64 and she said $40 for all. I was happy to give her two twenties. Here's all I got.
