This actually made me join the site. What kind of gay kid were you?

This may be the best thing I have ever read, I was pissing myself laughing.

My whole life I've been trading I duuno why but I'm really into it. First it was pokemon cards then digimin then yu gi oh and now magic and video games but for video games I never actually traded game for game more like games for cash lol.

You guys make me feel old. I got in a lot of trouble from my folks for trading my NES copy of 1942 for this beast.



I’m pretty sure a few action figures where thrown in too, but my parents, (and even my neighbors) said I was an idiot for trading a state of the art electronic video game for a piece of plastic.

I remember when I was in middle school I would rent my Sega Genesis games out for 50 cents a night. I had to pay for my own games (except for the one a year I got for X-mas/B-day) so I'd rent them out like this to save up and buy new ones for myself.

That's how I actually amassed most of my Sega CD collection. Sonic CD, Lunar, Lunar 2, Ecco, Ecco Tides of Time, and Earthworm Jim. All purchased on 50 cent rental fees.


In the end though it wasn't really a good choice. I did end up losing 3 games in the end. 2 of which I did get back a couple years later (hooked up with a friend of mine after I moved away and he hunted them down for me).

My best trade as a kid was a pair of old bauer roller boots for an amiga 32 with 2 controllers, 10 demo discs and 15 games.

traded a gamecube for an og xbox with 5 games once. this was right as gc's were starting to drop in price, i bought a new one for like 30 bucks afterwards. this was recently.

i traded a kid some playboys for some star wars action figures once also.

and i also used to trade my ritalin for money.

I'm pretty sure that "trading for money" is actually called "selling."

5 very old Playboys form the late 80's stolen out of my dads stash for a binder full of pokemon cards, this kid had a crapload of holographic cards

This actually made me join the site. What kind of gay kid were you?

how does this make me gay. did i not mention my dad had a STASH of these things, i could afford to give away that many and when your 8 years old pokemon is pretty much all that matters, titties could take a number and wait for all that i could care (at the time)

besides i kept all the really good Hustlers and Scores for my self

Titties > Pokemon

At any age.

[IcKy99]

Hustler > Playboy

therfore i keep the hustlers trade the playboys
