Re pre-ordered Cataclysm when Amazon told me I wouldn't have it until 2 days after it came out. Sucks to be Amazon right now.
 
"Harvest of Plenty" might be a fun quote.

Got this for $5.42 credit after flipping the other two games from the last Buy 2, Get 1 Free sale at Gamestop.

You'll have to excuse the image quality, since for my other purchase I finally broke down and got a cheap digital camera (Vivitar) from Kmart. It's not easy getting details with this contraption, but I have hopes that it'll help me sell some of my CIB games on ebay.

Always enjoy lurking this thread but never post.

Received these yesterday from Amazon and pre-ordered CoD: Black Ops Hardened Edition.

$40 shipped for both, probably leave the FO3 sealed. I had it before for about $20 at launch but sold it for about double that once they dried up and before the GOTY version released. :D

Well another big pick up month for me, and it's barely even started. Some of the highlights include the PS3 320 GB Move bundle and the Bronze DSiXL system.

My 60GB crapped out on me, so it was time for a new one. Then I traded in my black DSi for the XL, and for me it's been one of the best investments ever. I have never used my DS so much. Even though the system itself is heavier, the bigger screens actually make gaming more enjoyable.

My elaborate plan...

What I will probably end up doing is this...
Black Ops... 60 with 20 dollar credit.
Assasins Creed Brotherhood... 40 with use of 20 and I am given 15
NBA 2k11... 40 (or less depending on sales) with that 15 dollar credit.

Then I will buy Mass Effect 1 plus 2. Looking at Fallout 3 and a few other various games.
 
Problem is I live nowhere near a kmart.

What should i do?

*cant even say that without thinking of lebrons fucking ad.
 
pretty excited, picked up

:psp: Blade
:psp: Akira
:psp: Fantastic 4

on UMD, previously have never been able to find the first two with original cases and in stock anywhere locally or many places online for under $15, got all 3 for $2.12 total with my game rewards coupon.

Vanquish for 15? How?
 
Hit the thrift stores today and came away with this epic amount of win:

I saw this sitting in the glass display case for $25 bucks and got pretty excited at the $25 price tag.

When I first opened it I though it might be brand new as all of the plastic wrapping looked to be included as well as the instructions/poster. I also liked that it was a bundle from Target that I had never seen before.

Unfortunately I realized that the inserts for the free Nintendo Club membership were missing as well as the free issue of Nintendo Power touted on the box cover. Also missing was the included copy of Super Mario World.

What was included though is pretty cool and full of geek. There is a controller paddle that appears to have been unopened and never used.

Also when I compared it's condition to my girlfriends childhood SNES the difference is pretty remarkable. (The boxed one is obviously the one on the left)

What seems to be the coolest part of it though is that the original receipt is included with a completely filled out coupon for a free copy of Super Mario World that was never actually sent out. I would love to try and redeem it and see what Nintendo would say.

Overall, this was pretty cool to find. I also picked up an unopened copy of the boardgame Carcassone for about $7 and some cool vintage TV lamps.

Also got this at a flea market. Unfortunately the game was missing but I figure someone will want the extras and the box which are in immaculate condition for some loot. It only cost $2 so seems good to me.

[quote name='lmz00']The bag the SNES is in is not the bag it originally came with. For the price though, it ain't bad.[/QUOTE]

What would the bag look like?
 
[quote name='$hady']Nice haul Moop! That SNES is awesome for $25! Mail in the coupon just for kicks along with original receipt. :D[/QUOTE]

I would love to try and do that. I fantasize that they would mail me back a sealed copy.:D

Thanks for the heads up cuz I just looked and it is that bag, I just put it on wrong as the writing is only on one side. I was confused when you said it was the wrong bag because it fits perfectly and everything else in it is so immaculately kept. That helps if I ever want to sell it.
 
got some awesome eBay buys last day and a half

:360: Red Dead Redemption w/ Deadly Assassin DLC - $1.95 - eBay
:360: Dead Space - $1.99 (no manual) - eBay
