Picked up Super Bust A Move 2 complete for $2.99 at GS. I have a lot of sticker mess to clean up, but it's in good shape.

A beat up Triumph daytona 600 motorcycle that was sitting in my garage for 5 years with busted fairing and god knows what other problems.
I'd say I paid about $1200 in value with the computer in one, an Extron scan converter, a pcb, and lots of other goodies though.
He had more, a coctail, a Megalo and a Namco Exceleena in Sarasota FL. They were all converted to MAME except one of my astros, but weren't too chopped up to put back in proper order

I love the Exchange! I just picked up some games from their today myself. They price their stuff pretty well, but some of the more obviously popular titles are a bit pricey (Suikoden for PS1 there cost about $50.00). I always see other games there I want to buy but hold back because I don't want to drain all my money in one trip. :?


Also I can concur that Sub-Terrania is not fun. I bought it when I was like 12 and hated it then and I still do. :lol:

exchanges are the coolest stores. i have 4 or 5 that i frequent. this one had SOO many games i wanted. the last time i was there, which was probably 3 weeks ago, they had NOTHING. amazing what 3 weeks will bring in.

for the most part, you won't get any killer deals, but i think they price their stuff very fair. most of the time at least.
if you took a shit, please put it back

Nice. When I was at school (in Sarasota) someone had put a mini cabinet with a fried PCB out for trash. My friend picked it up and got $100 credit towards a Dig Dug cocktail.
