To 111111 and dtarasev: That shit is really
ed up about doubting me and my honesty. You don't know me so don't judge what you don't understand.
To camelking6969 and the rest of the 'salers: Thanks for the backup as it is much appreciated! I regularly enjoy all your guys' and gals' posts.
Now for the lowdown: I was actually on the way to work and passed a giant sign on a car that read "moving sale" 2 blocks from my house so I asked my gf is she thought it was worth checking out (she was driving me since my car is a shitbox) and she said "Sure, why not?" So, we decided to go and as I got out of the car, I said to my gf, somewhat under my breath, "Do u think it's even worth it?" because i saw a lot of kiddy toys and such. She said "let's just check it out" so I said alright fine. As I went up the driveway I said hello to the couple running it. After that, I walked to my left to look at some electronics and spotted the jaguar. I was really excited and called my gf over and told her what it was and I saw the $5 price tag on it w/all the games, the genesis controller, and a sega saturn manual. Since I had work, I went up to the husband and paid him the 5 bucks and asked if he had the Saturn since i've been looking for one all summer. He said he might and went in the house to find it. After 2 min. or so, he came out saying that he couldn't find it but found a dreamcast w/o the "plugs" but he said that he had stuff both upstairs and downstairs so i gave him my # so he could call if he found anything. I said I would be out of work at 6, but the never called.
I decided to go back the next morning since they were holding the garage sale the next day as well (this was yesterday.) As I got out of the car, the wife said "oh hi! I was gonna call you! He found a whole box of video games, but i don't think he found the saturn." I said "oh, I was excited since i've been looking for one all summer." Just as I finished, the husband came out w/a big box of video game stuff. Right away, I spotted the saturn so I got really excited and then I noticed the PS2 sticking out as well. As I looked inside, i found a PSX, and a Dreamcast w/games & accessories for all the systems. The first thing I said was "How much for everything?" The guy examined evrything for a minute and was like "I dunno, $30?" I reached into my back pocket to pull out my wallet and said "Sold!" I said good luck to the both of them and to call if they found anything else to give me a call and they obliged. I got home, tested everything, and realized that the saturn was missing both the ac and av cords and some of the ps1 games weren't in their cases. I went back to the house to see if they had any of the games or the cords. The wife found the games and apologized, and the husband came out with a box of cords for all different electronics to see if i could locate the av cord (i don't think he really knew what items went to what system cuz he brought out an n64 mem card that had a football at the end of it, proclaiming that it was for the dreamcast. I was like " Do you have an n64?" and looked at his wife saying "yeah i think so. That's what you play paper mario on, right? (his question directed to his wife) and I was like yeah it is. YOu might want this then, it' an n64 memory card to save your games and he was like "oh, oops") Nonetheless, I didn't find the av cord, but i found the 3rd extension cable for the ps2 controllers and an extra dreamcast av cord, which he told me to just take the both of them and reassured me that if he found the cord, he would call me. He even offered me $5 back when i 1st told him that the av cord was missing. These people were so nice and friendly so I was like "No way, it's no problem at all. I'll find the cord eventually or I'll just get one off of ebay. He hasn't called back, but I'm not too worried about it. Other than that, he asked if my store sells used games or just new games (I work at Gamestop) and he was like "Are you gona trade them in for cash?" and I said "no way! I collect this stuff for my own personal interest and nostalgia."
