I'll need Ranger at some point, but right now I'm having enough issues with spending money.

If you still have it in two months, let me know.

After striking out at garage sales this morning decided to hit a local flea market:

No games, but for $30 I'll take an ugly 80's Mario plush, Street Fighter II keychains, and an awesome framed Akira print.

Bought a NIB NES Satellite and a sealed Space Hawk (Sears version) for Intellevision. $20 isnt too bad. I opened Space Hawk just to say that I've opened an Intellevision game before :P

Just picked this up. Someone found it at their local GoodWill for $5 and shipped it for an additional $5.

Considering the game, it's probably not even worth that much. But I just have to know, is it really an original sealed copy? It does have a little overlap, there are no paint cracks at either end of the box...

I kinda half want this to be a really good re-seal so I can rip everything open...
My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.
Still, don't forget to tip your waitress.

I think it's the real deal. But others might be better at judging these things...

Looks real to me. If there's no chipping on the flap corner then I bet it is. I don't think that's a particularly pricey game though.

Walking through the swapmeet today not much new but noticed a comodore 64 box under a plastic tote. Guy said I could take a look at it. Told me to make an offer he couldn't refuse. $5 bought it.

Unit is there with some paper work, box is pretty banged up but its there and some paper work inside, came with some cassette attachment. I know nothing about the system so it'll be interesting to play around with.
