Todays haul from a garage sale
I've been going to a annual garage sale day in a town near where I live for 5 years now, and up until this year the best I got was some DVD's, books, old PC games and a network router.
This year has been the best so far
Today I got all this for £17

Most of the places were selling antiques, children's toys and VHS tapes.
One of the first places I went I got 3 big boxed PC games(Star Trek Generation, Klingon Honor Guard & Frankenstein through the eyes of the monster), and the film Brick on DVD. Overall it cost me £5.
An hour or two later I found a place selling a load of PS2 games so I picked up Drakengard for £2. After buying this I thought I was doing well and I was happy with what I got.
When I got to one of the last places on the map of garage sales I had a quick glance around and only saw old toys. I was ready to walk away when i notice a box on the floor with Bart Simpson VS the Space Mutants sticking out.
I quickly dived into this box and found 11 boxed mega drive games (most of witch I didn't have), Sonic and Knuckles unboxed, a N64 with 3 games , 1 official pad, 1 unofficial pad and as I later learnt no AC adapter, and at the bottom of the box was a fully boxed Megadrive II with 2 pads.
I looked up to see who was running the sale and all I saw was kids none of which could be over the age of 11. I asked one of them how much the stuff in the box was expecting him to give me a price of each item in the box, but I was surprised when he said the whole box was £10.
I instantly pulled out my wallet, gave him a £10 note, said thanks, picked up my box, and went as quickly as I could in case some parent realised their child's mistake.
Overall its been a pretty good day.

Re: Todays haul from a garage sale
Nice, Those are good garage sale prices. I've hit a bit of a dry spell myself. Can be frustrating. Always nice to hear of others successes.
I heard ST: Gen was pretty bad, I haven't played it myself though. I liked Klingon Honor Guard when I played it back in the day. It's no Half-Life but it's an enjoyable ST themed Unreal 1 game. I dunno about Frankestein. It's one of those crappy FMV games, but it has Tim Curry so it can't be all bad.

Man, that's a great find!
You're lucky someone didnt come and correct that child.

It never crossed my mind to check the marketplace as I associate it with selling stuff.

Re: Todays haul from a garage sale
ST: Gen is bad but I have fun memories of playing it with my cousin. If I remember right it had an interesting mechanic where if you fail mission you continue to play but have to deal with the consistences of the failHatta wrote:I heard ST: Gen was pretty bad, I haven't played it myself though.

If Tim Curry wasn't in Frankenstein I wouldn't have bought it.
