Anyone have any idea what the game in the upper left corner is?

Excuse my ignorance but what's the RetroGen?

Not bullshit. Tons of random PS1, GBA, Xbox, N64, and other games are having really high values as of late. Go scour the Amazon trade in thread.

Out to Lunch, a pretty poor SNES platformer. Veritcal scrolling only, annoying music. Not worth more than a few dollars. (easy to confuse with panic restaurant, a significantly better restaurant themed platformer for the NES that is worth tons)

Just bought a PS3D TV with 2 3d glasses, PS3 160gb slim, 3 controllers, and a Mass Effect 3 Vault system for $260. Damn good deal.

Thanks for the help. The guy sold it already, unfortunately.

Anyone ever traded a 360 for a car? I responded to this just posted on local CL:

"I have a running driving 96chrysler town and country ill consider trading for a 360bundle worth 350-400$ well worth it if u need a vehicle to drive around or to just messs around with txt me"

Even in crappy condition it is worth 650 bucks. Hell I can even pick up a star wars bundle from kmart for the guy and really set him up lol.

What do you guys think a Ice N64 in box with manual / styrofoam tray is worth? Ebay seems all over the place with some selling really high and others not selling at 1/4 the price.

^^ A car!? Lol. Maybe a guy trolling?

Edit: Maybe a mistake. But ended up passing on the N64. There was someone else interested last night, and by now there could have been a whole lot more interest. But last night the other guy offered $60 and I backed out.

She couldn't find the guide for Secret of Mana but threw in another copy of Illusion of Gaia and a few other games. They are dirty as all hell, of course, and of course they were smokers, but I should be able to clean them up decently and make a good amount of money.

The Secret of Mana cartridge and box look remarkable. Comes with everything - cardboard insert, manual, map, all other inserts. This should net me a pretty penny on itself.

Does anyone have any tips on cleaning up smoke smell in cartridges?

I believe there is a method of putting them in plastic with some baking powder to get smells out. I bought some dirty snes games a few months ago and while I'm sure this is an ignorant way to do it, I sprayed a little bit of febreeze into a plastic grocery bag and tied the games up in it. After a day or two I couldn't smell smoke on them. Baking soda would probably be more efficient though, in a plastic storage tub with the games elevated and not directly in contact with the powder.

Personally, when I bought a bunch of Sega games at a shitty thrift store(that closed within about 2 months) they were both smokers(the workers) so I just let them sit out in a room in my house that has a good amount of air flow and just let them kind of lose the smell. As far as cleaning, I just used basic cleaning supplies and some goo gone for the stickers.

A few of those I'm interested in if you wanted to float me a pm with some prices/trades ...

So, not quite a find, but a pretty good story...

Monday I picked up a Sega Master System with the box for $30, with a couple of games. I meet up with the guy, pick up the bundle, and get it home to find out...it doesn't work.

When I picked it up, he said to contact him if I had any issues (as we all do...). So, I took him up on his offer, expecting full well to be sent on a wild goose chase. Drove out there again today and sure enough, true to his word. I returned the SMS and games, he returned the money I paid.

For all the horror stories I hear about people getting scammed and screwed over, it was kinda nice to do CL business with a guy like that. Sucks to not have a boxed SMS, but got my money back, so just as good.

Yeah, my SMS doesn't seem to work. Power light goes on and all, but there is no picture/sound on my TV. :( I'm hoping it's just dirty inside, with the cart connection or something.
