Next I ask a guy about games and the he said he had some original Nintendo games. He brings out 5 SNES games. I offer $10 and he said okay then his wife starts yelling at him that she wanted to see those games.

And last I stop at a sale and ask about games, she tells me they sold everything they had out. I ask what they had and she tells me Wii games. I comment that I was out looking for old video games and she says hold on I might have something. She brings out a large box FULL of SNES games.
She tells me she didn't want to sell them all and starts making two stacks she tells me she would sell all but 6 games. I ask what she would sell the 21 games for? and she says $5 for all of them.
I pay her the $5 then offer her $10 for six she held and she thinks and looks through them and says she'd sell all but one. (Super Mario All-Stars & Super Mario World combo cart) and says she'll take $8 for the five games. so for $13 I got 26 SNES games.
