Thrift store by my house. Sometimes they have awesome stuff, like I got a Nomad + charger for $7 there once, but quite often they have nothing. Been pretty good so far this summer though.

Re: Video Game "Finds of the Day"
Thought you'd get a kick out of that, glad you didn't take it personally since we're just here to have a good time. Someone having a laugh at your expense is a sign of camaraderie, where I'm fromCRTGAMER wrote:I see sarcasm dripping all over that post with the CIB rant, driving distance and whatnot. Only thing missing is all the follow up Edits I do to a post. Great for a Mod impartiality overseeing the forums and copy my writing style. But still, an okay read and thanks for plugging my Disc Cleaning Thread.![]()

Picked up Capcom Classics Collection Vol. 2, Dokapon Kingdom for PS2 both CIB as well as artwork, cases and manuals for 8 orphaned PS2 games for $15 at Gamestop of all places. Also got the manager to give me all the cases, art and manuals they're tossing out from now on.

Until I laughed harder at CRT's follow up post - cuz, I couldn't tell if he was playing along or still just being himself. HIGH-Larius!!!!

Re: Video Game "Finds of the Day"
Jesus Christ - that post was freakin' EPIC! DSH & CRT - I salute you both!
I'll second aaron's comment - I actually love reading CRT's finds! I've gone out on a whim and bagged a few games thanks to his write-ups..
Matter of fact, his PS2 Special Edition thread is a great resource for finding some nice gems now that PS2 is on it's way out.. I can thank CRT and this thread for 7 of the last 10 games I picked up...

Dude, what opshops have their games for that price?emwearz wrote:Fallout 2 - $1 via Opshop (Thrift)
GTA Vice City (PC, Complete with Map,etc) - $1 via Opshop (Thrift)
Diablo II Expansion - $1 via Opshop (Thrift)
Spyro: A New Begging - $2 via Kmart
The lowest for PC stuff I got was $2 for Wing Commander III at a Lions Club store.
Re: Video Game "Finds of the Day"
Church ones, indy ones, there are a few that have all 'videos' for $1 and all 'cds' for $1, looking through old VHS taps, DVDs and Music CD's I find games all the time.EBP wrote:Dude, what opshops have their games for that price?emwearz wrote:Fallout 2 - $1 via Opshop (Thrift)

Kmart currently have a whole heap of games that are scanning wrong (All $7 games are $2 and most $9-$15 games tend to be around the $3-$5 mark), go to your local kmart and play with the scanners.
