    Official 2012 Yard Sale Thread

    I take a megaphone with me, pull within 20-30 ft of a sale, announce my presence, and demand they bring any and all video games to my car.

    Nice job on that NES haul. I didn't find anything worth buying gaming related this morning, but I did pick up Don Quixote and To Kill a Mockingbird to add to my ever growing to-read shelf.

    Still doesn't seem like there's much in the paper again this week. I'll most likely check out a few tomorrow morning, but it'd be nice if it picked up soon.

    Local newspaper mostly. Very few people use CL for anything in my city. I can usually count on 25-30 sales per week in the paper though.

    Yet More Craigslist Stupidity!

    This one made me lol: http://chambana.craigslist.org/vgm/3097061806.html $471 total for a Nintendo 3DS and games. Not bad.

    Question on Shipping Ebay Items via USPS

    Priority and Express mail materials are free from the USPS website and the post office. The bubble mailers are free, and I think the postage cost on them is around $5.

    Well, looks like I'm not going out tomorrow. There are literally only 4 sales within city limits listed for tomorrow. You win this round, heat wave.

    Why isn't there an eBay Stupidity Thread?

    You want eBay stupidity? I sold the game Yakuza, after the auction ends (and before paying) the buyer immediately gives me neutral feedback stating something along the lines of "sorry, I thought this was Yakuza 2. Please cancel this order." For the record it was very clear that this was Yakuza...

    Not much luck this morning. Seemed like everything was overpriced junk. My favorite was the "new" Wii for $150. Picked up a couple Leapfrog Handhelds for $2 that I'll probably flip, a slim PS2 for $5 (the AV cable is unusable though), some DS Math trainer game for a buck, and Dance Dance...

    The Official Craigslist Finds Thread!

    Saw this morning... http://chambana.craigslist.org/vgm/3060630520.html ...called and got a "this number can't be reached as dialed." Thought I hit the jackpot for a minute there.

    Amazon Warehouse Deals Thread V

    Sure enough my "lost" Uncharted 2 finally shows up 2 days after Amazon gives me a refund. It was listed in good condition and showed up brand new in shrink wrap. Should I let Amazon know? They said I could refuse the package if it still showed up and send it back when they issued the refund.

    So I ordered Uncharted 2 from AWD nearly 2 weeks ago, I still haven't gotten it, and my tracking number hasn't updated since last Wednesday. I e-mailed customer support, they replied in less than an hour and issued me a refund. Gotta love Amazon.

    Tempted... Is LBP2 better than the first? I liked it, but didn't think it was amazing.
