Video Game "Look what I found"

[Purkeynator]

So I found these two ads posted in my local online classified ads. Tell me if you think they are legit or if I am going to drive out there and get robbed at gunpoint....
There are two ads and they read as follows:

That's not out of the realm of possibility. So depends on distance and the safety level of the neighborhood. Take a friend just to be sure and if when you're arriving it doesn't look kosher, just keep going. Or better have them meet you in a parking lot outside a fast food place or other clearly visible free standing building with lots of people around so you can trade from trunks.

I emailed him as soon as I saw it but no response yet. I'll report back on what happens. Also forgot to add the part at the bottom:

Please no calls, only emails. Also, local pickup only. Thanks.

I'm also selling some nintendo (NES), sega genesis, atari, other video game stuff.

I'm also willing to trade for modern gaming stuff like:
xbox and xbox 360
Playstation (PS 1, PS 2, PS 3)
Sega Saturn or dreamcast

Or handheld stuff:
Gameboy, Advance, SP, Dsi
Gamegear

Or anything else you have video game related

Just picked up a black GBA for 7 bucks and got a FREE XBOX360! no chords and I'm pretty sure it's got the RRoD, but I'm gonna see what I can do with it.. score.

Weekend_Warrior, i hate your updates because i have no idea where you got them. i know that most places are region specific and like, i couldn't go to the same yard sales as other people, but it'd be nice to have a point of reference where you found factory sealed, black label final fantasy games.

anyway, i just got vagrant story from a friend for $40. not the best price in the world ever, and i probably overpaid, but i viewed it as more of a "friend-helping-a-friend" situation. plus i just wanted the game. so word up.

Haha. Well, obviously I'm a little hesitant to say where I find all my games. But I usually get most of them at various pawn shops- like the two factory sealed Final Fantasy games that I found yesterday. They also had sealed copies of Diablo, Future Cop L.A.P.D. and.. something else, I don't remember.

I plan to sell the Final Fantasy games because I'm not into RPG's. But I was actually the most happy about finding a new copy of Silent Hill. Most used copies tend to start at around $20 in my area, so to find a factory sealed copy for half that was ace. Also, they originally had it marked for $14.99 but the guy behind the counter said he'd "knock off a couple bucks" and eventually wrote $10.99 on it. Then I was all.. ---->

I hate it too because I'm about an hour south and have no idea where he's getting them from. I only recently discovered the 2 Play n Trades. WW would you mind pming me and let me in on it?

I got the Final Fantasy Anthology guide today for 5 bucks! Its really beat up, but none of the pages are missing, but the guide goes for about 20-30 bucks usually on eBay, so I guess I lucked out. I tried to get the guide back in 2006 when I got all the other guides (except IX because apparently the guide sucked) for when I got all the PSone Final Fantasy games : )
