[quote name='oscargrouch']Mario Party 4 - complete

Super Mario Bros 3 is the GBA one - Mario Advanced 4 (i think)

Good deal?[/QUOTE]

Try to get it down to 20-25$ if you can, if not it's still a pretty good deal.

Got it down to $30. Wife picked it up already. Another person showed up while she picked it up, so we couldn't haggle more :(

But still pretty good. Thanks for the help everyone.

Update: My wife got a little bait and switched. They gave her a power brick for something, just not the Genesis. I tried calling them, they didn't answer. Gonna have to find one at a garage sale i guess.

Shaqfu. The Gameboy CD isn't here either.

Yep, it's worth $50, but I've already claimed it.:) Sorry!
 
Ugh, CLing in my town is downright impossible. 99% of the posts are from resellers so it makes monitoring the feeds a chore. Patience patience, I suppose.
 
[quote name='ivanwijaya']Is this worth it for $50?[/QUOTE]

it's okay. the last N64 i bought had 26 games with it (and a R.O.B.) for $25. be patient and another, most likely better deal will come along.
 
Have a listing for a Gamecube w/hookups, Waverbird, and Lost Kingdoms. Guy wanted $50 I've talked him down to $20, but I'm not sure that is low enough.

Advice?

Seeing how a wavebird is worth more than $20, I would take it

if you don't already have one, go for it.
 
As already said, for the Wavebird, yeah. And plus, you're trying to get a last-gen system for less than $20?

...

Nice! You're a true CAG. A slimeball like the rest of us.
 
Cheapest I have seen a complete in box 32X was $60 at too many games. Every time I went (3 times). I think that is pretty good, but if you can haggle a little even better.

I found two brand new ones at an antique store in downtown Raleigh for $3.00 each. Needless to say, I bought both. Gave one to a friend and kept one for my collection. I bought my personal 32X when it was on clearance at Kay-Bee 13+ years ago for $20.00 (and a couple games at $5.00 each).
 
[quote name='oscargrouch']I don't necessarily think this is the worst Craigslist ad ever, but I don't see $1200 worth of stuff from what he has listed. I would go take a look if it wasn't 1.5 hours away. Might be some good stuff you could cherry pick though.

Just seems pretty unrealistic from what he has listed to expect that price.

http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/vgm/1284412373.html[/QUOTE]

Good to note that he says he will have a yard sale if he doesn't get an offer by Saturday (which he won't, not at $1200). Sadly I am out of town this weekend, or I would def drop by. (87 PS2 games, 22 GC games, Genesis, 2 SNES, 3 NES....sounds like about as good of a yard sale as a CAG could dream of :))

Now if you want to talk about bad ads....

http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/mld/for/1279190582.html

He is looking for $1493 for his Wii and games, among other things.
 
fuck me, I missed this monster score yesterday. Guy emailed me back this morning to say someone bought it all late last night for $75. I'm inclined to call bullshit on it though, it's just sounds too good to be true. But if it is legit, I hope a CAG got it at least cuz it's a huge score.

http://losangeles.craigslist.org/lac/vgm/1283707277.html

All this must be picked up and i only accept cash, no flakes.
 
Damn third time I responded to a message the the seller has said something different than the post or they just didn't word it clear enough. The guy removed the listing or someone did anyways the listing said 360 cont + games $30, post had 360 wired controller, guitar hero 2(game only), Dead or Alive volleyball, and ncaa 09 $30. Called the guy and he wanted that for each of them. I just laughed and hung up.

I sell like 2 things a week on craigslist. Usually dvds that I get blurays for or old games that I get a new edition of or random stuff I pick up cheap at yard sales. Anyways for the past month on some of my game sales this same guy keeps emailing me offering to trade some really weird crap. I was selling American Idol Encore with mic for ps2 for 15 bucks because I got the 360 version. No obo or anything, he emailed me with a list of things he had for trade and one was a hamster with cage.
Anyways I thought about it and called the guy and asked him how old the hamster was but he all ready traded it to someone else. :( He sounded like a salesman after that. I was offered a speakerphone system, 2 gig usb stick, 50 blank cds. Finally I was like umm dude I got everything I need minus the hamster.

WOW. They basically bought Earthbound and got a ton of stuff for free. Every CL listing near me is people trying to make money. Other than the deal I snatched up ($25 for NES Advantage, Contra, Super Mario Bros, and T&C Surf Designs), I've seen nothing good.
 
My CL has been DRY of cheap games & systems for weeks. It's all "Nintendo DS $150!!", "Wii $350!!", and "Xbox 360 and seventy-three crap games for $15000!!!"

Lame. I'm in the mood for some new games without even pulling out my wallet lol.
