GBA/GB/GBCAt a sale run by a little old lady with nothing but old antiques I ask about games and she said she had a Game Boy but couldn't get it right now. I give her my number and as I was about to leave her son shows up and she asks him to too go inside and look for the Game Boy. He comes out with a white GBA with games from GBA, GBC and GB. I ask a price and she says $12 for everything.

Stopped at a sale and asked about games and she said no. But saw I was wearing a Star Wars T-Shirt and asked if I was interested in Star Wars toys. I tell her I would only be interested if they where from the 70s or 80s and she said they where. And pulls out a bunch of boxes stacked up in the back of the garage. I open them and its mostly Star Wars stuff from the 90s and then I see a bunch of Sega Master System games.
So then I start going through all the boxes and find more gaming goodness and I make a stack and ask a price. She says $12 and I agree and was about to pay her when she starts having second thoughts and says she wants to call her husband. She couldn't get a hold of him and starts to act like she wasn't going to sell them, So I offer $20 for everything and she finally said okay.

And now the best find of the week. I stop at a huge community sale. It was mostly scraps (like I listed above) but at one sale I ask about games and they give me the classic "Sorry no" and as I leave another person who was just shopping at the garage sales asks me what I was looking for? I tell him pretty much everything and he tells me he has a Colecovision. I tell yes I'm interested and at first he asks my number but I ask him if he lives far and he says he lives just up the street. So I ask if we can go check it out now and he says sure. We go to his house and he invites me in and asks his wife about where the Colecovision was and she tells him it was given away a long time ago. Then he tells me he has some PS2 games. We go to his entertainment room and he pulls out about 20 PS2 games. I pick out a few and then he say he also has these and pulls out a huge stack of NES and a few SNES games and a Retron 2 console.
I make a huge stack of games and ask a price and he said make an offer. So I start low at $20 and he said yes. As we bag it up and tells me I can have the Retron 2 with several controllers for free. lol Here's everything I got.
