February 2011

D: February ended already? I didn't even get to post how I was an idiot a few days ago.



Bought the above right before the drop in price for the PSP. Still, it was only $130 for the PSP, the speakers, all the loose crappy UMDs. Sadly the PSP came hacked, but apparently when I updated it, that went bye-bye. Ignore the x2 Ogre things. I felt like doing something stupid with my money.

Nice Rabbit. Too bad you got shafted what with the price drop and all.

Stuff from before:
I picked up a couple random things from Amazon:
Nostalgia $9.96
Hori 16 DS Card Carry Case $4 (ignoring the $9 sticker)


Rosewill 2.5"/3.5" combo Hard Drive dock for $13.99 from Newegg. I have had a bare 3.5" internal HDD for about 3 years since my old desktop died.


I used the B&N Groupon deal to pick up some stuff that was mostly just filler, but stuff I also thought was interesting:
Dracula- Dead and Loving It for like $2
RoadSong Vol 1 Manga for $3.30ish
Prima Essential Goldeneye 007 Guide $10.20 after tax I think

Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation, $12.44 ($34.99 + tax - $25 GC) from Kmart.


Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation Guide $10.50 from B&N.com


GoHastings pickups (not all shown):
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days Guide $4.28 (5 for $20)
Super Smash Bros Brawl Guide $4.28 (5 for $20)
Red Steel 2 Guide $2.90 (30% off sale)

Pickups from CAG (not all shown):
Goldeneye Rogue Agent Guide
Tokyo Majin Ch 1 DVD Set
Dragon Warrior NES cart
Starfox Adventures Guide



Added 3/3:
19" iSymphony LCD TV, $113.07 ($5 GC) from Amazon. It looks stunning for the price. I was getting it since my current TV is a TV/DVD combo, and I now have a Blu-Ray player as an early birthday present. The contrast ratio on this TV is 10,000:1. The only complaint I have is the lack of inputs- only 1 HDMI, 1 VGA, and 1 component/composite. Oh, and the connection from my cable box is a bit off, as the audio sometimes freaks out. 99% of the time it's during the stupid and severely annoying Proactiv commercials.

Yes, I do know the plastic protective wrap is still on it. I am keeping it there until I travel back to FSU.

Added 3/5:
LG Optimus V bundle from Best Buy ($179.73):
LG Optimus V Cell Phone
$25 VM Top-up card
Rocketfish MicroUSB car charger
InvisibleShield screen protector for LG Optimus S

Insignia NS-BRDVD4 Blu-Ray Player, $85.59 from Best Buy.
Bambi Blu-Ray/DVD Combo Pack, $14.60 ($22.99 + tax - $10 coupon) from Best Buy.
Tatsunoko vs Capcom Ultimate All Stars $17.11 from Best Buy


After heading to Best Buy for the BR Player, Bambi, and TvC, I headed to GameStop to trade in my black wii that was pretty much useless as it had hit a tile floor from about 3.5 feet up multiple times. I ended up with $117.75 in store credit, which got me:
Mario Kart
Nunchuck
$62.77 in store credit leftover.

ADDED 3/6:
Two copies each of Pokemon Black and White. One set is for me, the others are gifts. Total was like $98.77 after rewards points.



Still to add: DVD haul from Kmart. Mostly crap but... Oh, and working spoilers because apparently the links I had there don't work. It's currently almost 3am, so I am going to tackle that tomorrow.

This is since around the middle of January.

Probably about $400 out of pocket on the bed. Lots of deals, a couple GameStop glitches, and I found and resold quite a bit of stuff during the time I picked all of this up. Not too bad considering my monthly budget for games and movies is around $300.

On a side note, there was a copy of the original receipt for Earthworm Jim stuffed in the instruction manual. It was bought in 1994 for $69.99 . Same price I paid for MvC3SE yesterday, and people say games are expensive today .

TomTom 330-s 4.3 - $30 @ advance auto parts.

I told myself I wouldn't spend any more money for a while.
Then somebody posted a full set of Rock Band instruments (including a second Guitar Hero guitar) for $30 on Craigslist. Damn yooooou!



Also swept out a guy at works section he didn't feel like doing in exchange for a few Genesis carts he picked up for me at the thrift store, Golden Axe, not sure what else yet. Have to wait till I see him next.

Is that the really nice WMXX with the movie and trivia disc and the awesome packaging?

That was my first DVD.

yeah,that's it

I love that DVD.

I still own it and it's near mint because I have taken such good care of it.

Great pick up.

Don't have camera access at the moment but all of my DVDs from the goHastings $1 shipping sale have finally arrived:

Clerks: The Animated Series
Harry Potter & the Sorcerer's Stone (2-Disc Widescreen)

Saw VI
Synecdoche, New York
The Wackness
The Weatherman

Also got the PS3 SE of Marvel vs Capcom 3 on launch day and the guide last week, both from Amazon, and just received the new MacBook charger I had to order since mine died the other day.

Got both the US and the EU LE of Tactics Ogre.

Guide for it is on the way from amazon.

i went on a 2 week fast from buying games
all i bought were these for $1.58 on Amazon.



Was saving for the Pokemon DSi bundle that ill get at K-Mart and get white version for free.

I finally broke my fast and used most of my Amazon credit to feed my PSP now.

Yo pick-ups club. In trying to be a bit less of a CAG recluse I figured I'd jump in here since I take pick-up pics for personal reference periodically anyway. I've never posted in a pick-up thread before before, but now's as good a time as any to start, heh.



All of this is mostly the result of trades, but I did shell out for the NMH2: Hopper's Edition on Amiami. Around $60 shipped, but normally retails for $100-ish.

Picked up the PS3 games from newegg and buy.com. At $10.99 a piece who could argue?!? Also splurged and got myself an entire PSMove setup for Killzone 3.

Not pictured: Tactics Ogre UK LE

My MvC3 50% off coupon was still active on my acct after I had amazon switch it over to the SE, when it was announced. I picked 1 up for myself and the other 2 are for two CAG friends. $28.49 each

Megaman X5
Megaman X6
Megaman X4
Meg Man 8 Aniiversary Collectors Edition (though I think this is game only)
The Misadventures of Tron Bonne
Mega Man Legends
Mega Man Legends 2

All, except maybe 8, complete.

$35

took 8 back, got Klonoa but the Klonoa book has severe water damage done to it with icky mold.

I was bored and was scouring ebay and I saw all of this so I bid and won it.



Everything seen for 126.04 shipped. Now I just gotta wait for it to come.
