Asked the lady if they had any video games, because there were none out for the sale. She said she had some N64 games and system. She went in the house and brought out the N64 and PS1 stuff. CIF'd $10 and she accepted.
She then asked if I had an XBox. I don't, but asked her to see what she had. She brought out 14 games. I have no idea what are good XBox games, so asked what she wanted and she said $30. I offered $20 and she countered $25. I took her up.

After this transaction I decided to see if she would be interested in parting with her broken XBox. I figured if it was a stuck drawer I might be able to fix it. I asked her if they were no longer using the XBox if she would just give it to me and I would try to fix it. She said sure. Did not have a power plug, so I had to pick up one for $5 at Gamecrazy. Took it home, it works perfect! No catches, yet.

Big box of Thomas the Train toys and tracks

My last stop was a moving sale. The guy didn't have any games, but did have a synthesizer that he was giving away. I am no musician, but my nephew is and I thought I would get it for him since the price was right. Called him and he already has one. So I passed. Looked it up on EBay as I was leaving and decided I should go back. Ends up it is a Yamaha DX7, which goes for a pretty penny on EBay. Not sure if it works. Gonna get my nephew to run it through its paces and see what he thinks. It is pretty beat up.
