No deals here, except for the blue DS lites (Only a $30 premium), but the rest of these prices make a CAG cry. If I find any more I will update the prices.
This is just an FYI for those curious. Most games I've found are PAL/British releases, but there are a few NTSC games and consoles available. Both PAL and NTSC Wii consoles were in-stock.

Update:
I visited a local market and scouted around for electronics. A few stores had games, mostly GBA, DS, and PS2. Every GBA game I found was a bootleg. Also, I saw DS bootlegs for the first time: poorly printed covers, different instruction manuals, and cartridges without "Nintendo" on the back and a crooked label. I also saw some GBA and DS multi-carts. All in all, very disappointing.
I visited a mall with a games store called Geekay. It reminded me of a small Gamestop, but they had no deals. I got excited when I saw a few stacks of import and PAL Dreamcast games, but they were all sports/racing titles. Sigh.
