Gamestop.com



Gamestop store, WD figures were clearanced to 97 cents apiece. Got 6/8 of the set from the 7 they had.



TRU finally got these back instock. Just missing the Jirachi one now, I have all the other 20th Anniversary items.



Craigslist trade- game, box, foam, sleeve for one of my creased World Of Nintendo Shadow Link figures



Simon's Quest? Why? That is the NES game I pretend never happened. Probably among the most meh games on the upcoming NES Classic box.

Xbox One S, Arecus Masterball, card set, and DLC codes, Inferno grips for my PS4 controller, and some FF stuff from Square Enix Rewards





 
I sold off my Silent Hill games a few months ago so when I saw 3 games at Half Price Books for 14.99 each complete and in excellent condition I snatched them up. Also grabbed X-men: Legends for PS2 for $2. I also came across a bunch of games that I didn't have at Goodwill for cheap. All are complete.

Boxes of stuff waiting for me when I got home from my vacation to TN/GA. Arceus plush from GS.com. MegaMan POPs from Amazon, rest from PlayAsia- brand new Wii lense cleaner kit, Sega Saturn 4MB Action Replay Plus, Super Famicom Edition New 3DSLL, Sega Saturn Death Throttle (looks brand new), 2 NES and 2 SNES wireless adapters by 8bitdo. I love their SNES style bluetooth controllers so now I can use them wirelessly with my PC and NES/SNES or use PS3/4, Wiimote, or Wii U Pro controllers with those systems.



 
Mega Man exclusive POPs from GS..........they dont bother calling me about my Instore Pickups anymore. I had to check and see if they were in.



Vinyl Palooza 3



 
Otakon swag. Everything here is from Day 1. Couldn't find anything I wanted in Day 2 and didn't stop by in Day 3. The manga was from the cheap 10 for $40 booth.









 
Haven't posted in a while but wanted to brag about the creme de la creme find for me @ Otakon.

Being staff and knowing the dealer I got it on a good deal. was selling for $280, I offered to pay via PayPal so they don't have to pay the credit card fees. Got it for $245
 
See, I see that price and I think "but I can get, like, 10 1/144 models for that price." That's what keeps me away from PG kits all the time.
 
Here are some of my weekly pickups.

Picked up my copy of Nine to Five Sexist, Egotistical, Lying, Hypocritical, Bigot Edition from Wal-Mart. A bit earlier this week, I picked up my copy of the Perry Mason movie collection (the 80's - 90's ones) from the local post office.

 
[attachment=23390:20160822_174035.jpg]

Picked up a still sealed RE: Zero for $21 on Ebay. Now just have to find a copy for cheap that I can actually play. O:)

 
there was a retro gaming expo last weekend so i decided to go and try and trade a few of my doubles for some games i been wanting for awhile. for my trades i was able to get these two games. i love playing hyperstone heist so i had to get this one too.



i also got these for $10 dollars each. i could never find these games cheap and if i did find them they were over priced and labels destroyed.



i got both of these for $15. i been looking for bioharzard battle since i started collecting. this was one of the games i would  play all the time when i was little but i did not own it. it was the last game from my childhood that i did not have



i didnt go out gaming hunting much last weekend because of the expo but i did find this controller and dreamcast for $20 total

my target finally lowered their clearance so i got these games at half price. got the nintendo select ones from best buy. i still don't have a wii u but plan on getting one by the end of the year. i don't want to miss getting games i want for the system so I'll get them while they are cheap. i thought $15 was fair for a mediocre game like mighty no.9. ill try and get the games cheaper when target lowers the prices again.



 
From what I hear, the Wii U version runs as bad as the PC version, and when ProJared tried to play the game on his PC, it kept trying to kill his computer every 20-25 minutes.
 
Some recent pick ups

Got all this for $43 at Half Price Books during the 20%

Paid $80 for a big DS game lot. These were the best of the lot :)

 
Holy cow. You lucky son of a gun! I saw Eternal Darkness recently at a used game store, but it was going for way too much.
HPB prices are so weird here lol They overprice a lot of things but greatly underprice some great titles. I got Radiant Dawn for the Wii for $19.99 there also a few weeks back. I'm still shocked they had Melee priced at 24.99 I practically ran to tell them I wanted it out of the lock case haha

That's pretty neat that they do that. A lot of places over price games.

 
Been too lazy with my pick ups. So here they are. Some of them at least.


Xenoblade, Yoshi, and Star Fox were from that one Best Buy sale a while back.

Luigis Mansion and Zelda Triforce Heroes were from Toysrus 3 for 30 deal. I actually ordered Ocarina of Time but got sent Triforce Heroes instead. They refunded me thankfully. The rest was from Gamestop after a B2G1 coupon. The free game will be in the next post.



Bought this last month. I was in the mood to spend money and when I found out a Toysrus aomewhat near me had it, I drove to pick it up. Really regret missing out on the og legacy release. Unfortunately, i dodnt have money at the time.
 
Had a really, really fun pick up yesterday. I stopped by the 2nd and Charles in Newark and noticed a copy of XEXYZ sitting out on the shelf with a weird label. I remembered it from a post on Nintendo Age so I picked it up for $9 on the off chance it was what I thought it was. I got it out to the car, popped it open with a screwdriver I keep on my keychain (this one had Phillips head screws), and VOILA! A Nintendo prototype board! Not too shabby!







 
Finally decided to upgrade from my rolling laptop stand.......claimed by the cat within 10 mins of assembly of course!



I even made a video for the Youtube channel I never use, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-jSbSra3as

Zelda Manga Box Set and Hyrule Historia from Amazon, Bayonetta 2 ($9)/ Hyrule Warriors ($18)/ Villager figure ($3.49) from Target came out to $21.74 after a giftcard, and Breath Of The Wild poster from Power Up Rewards. They have some nice quality posters, I have 3 different Legend Of Zelda ones from them and they all look great!

1. Who donates that to Goodwill?! 2. So much for being a "non profit thrift store", those are outrageous prices for a Goodwill and personally I thinks its BS! 3. You still got a good deal value wise!

This particular Goodwill is in the middle of 3-4 richer suburbs so that is why I would guess something like that was donated there. Rich people just dump off stuff and don't care. Besides a leather jacket I saw there for $99 those games are the highest priced things I've seen at any Goodwill around me. I thought that higher priced stuff went to Shopgoodwill or Ebay. Nights Into Dreams was on top of the stack and was listed at $19.99 so I was expecting around $50 for the other titles and was shocked when I saw the $99 tags. And then I saw the $149 on Shining Force and almost didn't pick it up to check it out, glad I did, otherwise I'd never have noticed it was sealed. I didn't mention that I left Dragon Force behind, It was also complete with a mint disc and $99.99. I am happy and not complaining for being in the right place at the right time...

:D/ :D/ :D/
