The Official Craigslist Finds Thread!

[quote name='JYabbz']I told the ass wipe nicely that if he ever comes to his senses and honors his original price that I will be willing to buy the lot from him. Its one thing to lowball a seller but to raise the price to 50% for no reason :bomb:. Its fucking Craigslist not eBay.[/QUOTE]

25 bucks ain't bad.

I've been dealing with a guy for a few days who jumped in price from 150 to 440 and now down to 250.

Had a bunch of NES games a few stand outs complete so I said I'd give him the 150 asking. Changes mind wants 440 now. I write a pretty coherent letter back to him and and for God knows why sent him a spreadsheet I had prebuilt for selling stuff on eBay. I fed in the avg price for each game and showed him what he would end up with if he sold each separately after ebay and paypal fees. It came out to like 200 bucks or something, and I told him I thought 150 was fair for the amount of time he would save especially since he doesn't even have an eBay account.

He told me he would think about it and then came back with 250 saying that he think the values are currently down because of the state of the economy but they will rebound with the market and go back up to be worth well more than the 250.

I just sent him a little note saying games are not investments like gold, silver, etc. and they have no real value that you can bank on and told him good luck.
 
[quote name='CL Guy']Walmart cant even beat my prices. [/QUOTE]

Of course they can't beat his prices when they haven't sold that shit in 10 years. lulz.

Hey, as long as I'm here, I know nothing about the PS3; guy says he turned his fat PS3 on and the light blinked and turned red. He says it's the "red light of death." Clearly that much is lulz-worthy but what does the PS3 red light mean? Guy wants $60.
 
Sorry about that. They were Nintendo 64, Gamecube, Wii, Playstation, and Xbox black horizontal signs that Hollywood Video put above each platform of games. She threw in an official Nintendo DS black sign with White writing. The DS one wasn't Hollywood's. $25 took all 6.
 


Playstation System With Some Misc Extras Pictured, Brave Fencer Musashi, Jade Cocoon, Lunar 2, Threads of Fate, Wild Arms 2 & Myst IV (PC) - $45

Was $50 when I pointed out the missing manual for Lunar offered to go down to $45. All of the games are complete expect for Lunar 2 which I was most interested in, besides not having the manual I'm guessing it's missing some of the extras. I have the soundtrack, making of disc, map, 15 cardboard character things, paper sleeve for soundtrack and the Omake box.
 
Picked up these 16 games for $105 today :D
8 of the games are going out to a couple CAGs
(more could if you're interested in buying ;) )
All but FFVII (missing manual) are complete and most are in great condition!

Hey could anyone help me out with this. This is MY listing. Im just not sure what to expect when offers come rolling in. Im not holding out for high offers really, but what should I generally sell this for to be fair to the buyer and to at least get something for me? Thanks for the help.

Got a Nintendo Wii with all cables and no controllers for $30

Seller said it sometimes doesn't play discs.

Works fine for me with every game Ive tried.
 
need some help here guys. i picked up a few games from a guy on craigslist (lost planet 1, wwe legends of wrestlemania and fallout non-GOTY) for $25. when i went to his house he also had a SNES with 1 controller, all cables and 3 games - super mario world and donkey kong country 1 and 2. i asked him how much and he said "$45 for all of it." i tested the system and all 3 games and they worked fine. what do you guys think? a good deal or no? let me know. oh, and the snes is the original one not the newer one.
 
nothing. just the system, wires, 1 controller and the 3 games. system looks in good shape. not to faded. most snes sell for about 30-35 on ebay. and thats just for the system, wires and if your lucky 2 controllers. plus you dont know if its gonna work or not. im tempted to buy it but i need a few more opinions before i pull the trigger. let me know guys.

Do you own an SNES? Great way to start a library, take it.

If you plan on re-selling, not really.
 
Yeah it's a tough call - it really depends on how badly you want an SNES. For resale, hell no I wouldn't pay more than $20-25 with those games.

If I didn't have an SNES and wanted one, then yeah I'd pay a bit more than that considering the 3 games are quality. Try to offer $30 cash and see if he bites. You know, lay on a sob story about how that's all you can spend...Worst case you should be able to get it down to $40 at the very least.
 
yeah its for personal use not resale. i'll try to talk him down a bit though. see if i can hit between 30-40 for it. thanks for the help guys!

First thing to note is that you have a "Vader" Atari. The all black Ataris are worth more than the wood paneled ones. Make sure to point that out. You've also got a bunch of Intellivision games mixed in there that will not work on the Atari.
 
[quote name='david12795']in the market for a cheap wireless keyboard.

good deal?[/QUOTE]

no hella old and crappy, he paid $60 for it FIVE fucking years ago I bet.

I'd rather get a semi-new Microsoft/Logitech one, then provided it doesn't work, you can just RMA them. With Microsoft, you just need the serial number on the back and model # and they send you a new one, with Logitech you need to actually send it in if you don't have a receipt. Although they give you a label, so you just need a box. ;)

Didn't get anything as usual, but somebody did tell me to call them..it was 12 pm and parents are sleeping, I already answered his provided questions, I don't really see a reason to call him that late, does anyone else? I mean, are they reassured that just because I'm talking to them doesn't mean I will scam them? Stupid fucking people. :bomb:
 
picked up a crimson ds lite in nice condition and 15 games for 70 bucks today, nothin too high value, best game being 2 copies of the connect four/battleship/sorry/trouble game
 
This evening I'm going to pick up a CIB Metal Gear PSP (the green one, not the camo one unfortunately), Final Fantasy Dissidia, Final Fantasy 1, GTA Liberty City, Medal of Honor 2, Call of Duty 3, Ratchet and Clank, Peacewalker, 2 & 8 GB memory sticks (apparently Symphony of the Night is downloaded onto one of them) plus a case all for $200... not too bad IMO
 
Just picked up 4 NES games, all with boxes & in great shape.

Castlevania (no manual)
Balloon Fight (complete)
Commando (no manual)
Tetris (complete)

all for $30 (down from $34).
 
Just picked up a 80 gb ps3 that doesn't read discs but is complete plus assassins freed 2 and MLB 09 for 40. System is in nice shape and I am surprised what the ps3 with bad disc drives go for
 
I picked up some more original G1 Transformers from some guy who worked a couple of blocks from my place the other day, for $40 total. They will all be resold (except the reissue Optimus) since I have them all, most likely on eBay, with some loose accessories I have for some of them, mainly Megatron (had extra fusion cannon/scope, silencer, and part of his stock/cannon stand).

Good part was the figures were all seriously mint...almost like they've never been transformered. Bad part was, they were just the figures - no accessories/guns/swords, no manuals, boxes etc. Still worth well over what I paid. $40 for the following 6:

1. Megatron (original Walther P-38, fig only)

2-4. Dinobots Snarl, Sludge, and Swoop figures only (all mint and unbroken...the original Dinobots tend to break easily)

5. Ultra Magnus (uncludes the white Optimus figure, the car transport piece, and some of the accessories but not the big head or gun)...

6. The U.S. reissue of Optimus Prime from Toys R Us a while back, mint in sealed box. Nice to have one so cheap, since I passed on it back in 2003/2004.

Guy had a few other TF things, mainly a Devestator missing a bunch of accessories and all of the mini weapons, for $50, that I passed on.
 
Just grabbed a copy of Resident Evil Archives (the book) for $20 off of someone on KSL. A little more than I would have liked to spend, but I was originally lined up to pay $10 and someone else offered him $35, so I upped my offer.

RMA =?
 
There hasnt been a post here in a while.. guess I'll try and revive it!

Got these today. Total was $120. He was asking for $200, which is way overboard, but I chiseled away and broke him down to what I think is reasonable. He said he had just gotten home from overseas military stuff, and was selling all his games, which he received literally a week before he got called to service.

Everything is very mint except Parasite Eve(1). He told me he hadnt even played any of the games, and I think he was telling the truth. There are no scratches on the cases, or game discs at all, and no weird stuff anywhere. Parasite Eve has a crack on the front of the case, but thats it.

Radiata Stories and Street Fighter are still sealed:bouncy:
 
Picked up an Ultimate Doom box, manual, poster, and mouspad set for $1 tonight to go with my $2 purchase of Ultimate Doom in original CD case at Goodwill. :D
 
Game Boy Color - Green - Complete
Ghosts 'n Goblins - GBC - Complete
Dragon Warrior I & II - GBC - Complete
Dragon Warrior Monsters - GBC - Complete

$20

all mint. pretty excited about this.
 
I need some advice: a guy posted a wanted ad for Fallout 3 GotY 360, and I said I wanted $45 for it. He replied with $35. How much does it regularly sell for used in stores? Should I take $35?

I would take it. It's been on sale new for $40 recently iirc, and will probably be on sale for more this holiday season, since it's been out for awhile, and a new fallout is coming out.
