Found two pawn shops that are pretty solid on pricing this week. One has mostly newer stuff but prices very well, didn't see anything I wanted though. The other has GBA/Cube/PS2 games at $3 each. I picked up Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones and Golden Sun for less than the price of lunch, I'm happy.

First time going to the flea market and picked up:

PS1 console w/ hookups and with 4 analog controllers -$5
2 N64 Consoles with 2 controllers w/ hook ups - $3 each
Mario Paint CIB - $3
Ti-83+ Calculator- $25
Toki Going Ape Spit CIB - $3

How did I do for my first try?

That sounds pretty good, Mario Paint (CIB) is a pretty good find. TI-83+ is alright if you can flip it for $50 when school comes in the fall. The game systems was a nice find as well.

We don't get cool swap meets like that in my area. Everyone looks up stuff online here for video games and prices it high. Once in a while you get some one who didn't do their research and get a good deal.

I picked up a copy of Spycraft: The Great Game (PC) for $3 at Half Price Books. This is a little gem of an FMV game from 1996 that's been forgotten over time. It was pretty ambitious at the time with lots of video and tasks and stories informed from a collaboration with former CIA director William Colby and former KGB Major-General Oleg Kalugin. I got it up and running in DOSBox this morning. I'm looking forward to digging in a bit deeper.

Here's a trailer if you're interested.
