I missed last week and only hit a couple sales the week before, so I planned a pretty big route around one of the nearby suburbs today.
- Macross Digital Missions VF-X (JPN Import)
- Marvel vs. Capcom 2
- King of Fighters Evolution
Total: $1.50
I saw a box of CDs with Macross sitting on top, gave it a look, and was told all the CDs were 50 cents. So I kept looking, and right next to each other were these two Dreamcast games! MvC2 is sadly missing the manual, but both are in very nice condition, just a little dusty.
- Pelican Wireless PS2 controller
- Red Dreamcast VMU
Total: $7
It was a multi-family sale, so a few tables I found these guys. The table was full of game stuff, but it was mostly overpriced. $50 for an Xbox, $50 for a PS2 that didn't always read games, no less than $10 for each game... These were marked $10 and $0.50 each, not too bad. Haggled them down a bit.
- Rush 2
Total: $1
Next it was off to a huge neighborhood sale. Things started a little slow, but I found a table full of N64 wrasslin' games with this in the middle. They were asking $2, but I got it for $1.
- Genesis QuickShot controller
- Genesis "American GameGun"
- SNES Super Scope receiver
- Dreamcast Keyboard
Total: $6
Found the first three in a box of random stuff, and the keyboard on a table nearby. I'm pretty excited about this one, since my girlfriend owns Typing of the Dead, but doesn't have the keyboard anymore.
- Rainbox Six
- Forsaken 64
- NBA Hang Time
Total: $3
Found these after a long dry spell. An older woman and I both came to the table with games around the same time. I quickly spotted these, but perhaps 30 seconds before, she grabbed a stack including Ocarina, KI Gold, Quest, and Donkey Kong. I've been looking for KI Gold for a while and offered to let her take these and let me buy that one, but she wouldn't budge.
- Fatal Frame
- Obscure
Total: $7
This is another one to remind you to always ask. Two women in their 30s were running this sale, nothing game related was out, but I asked anyway. Lo and behold, she went into the house and grabbed some PS1 and PS2 games, including these. My girlfriend is a huge survival horror fan, so she was pretty darn excited to see Fatal Frame. We had a nice chat about various survival horror games, then asked what they'd like for these two. They named their price, and we took it. I never would have believed that Obscure was worth more than Fatal Frame, but man did I get lucky.
Oh, also we came across these guys...
Just $2 to give them a good home. Who could say no?
