For all you bargain hunters

Post by glynnahab »

I was just surfing online and happened to find this site:

shopgoodwill.com

They seem to have quite a few decent deals here, and it's all ebay-type auctioning, but from Goodwill stores across the country. (If I were a smart man, I probably wouldn't be sharing this with you. :wink: )

Wow! Didn't see that one. I don't know... What's funny is that there are some good games in the list, but not $250 worth.

Yeah, didn't catch that till you pointed it out. Obviously the people selling know little of the items for sale also. That said, there are good deals to be found. Too bad that the Saturn you could buy for $5 ends up costing more than $20 with shipping.

Actually I did a bit more browsing and although most stores use UPS I found a few that ust USPS and charge a bit less. Still, it's not cheap. There are tons of game lots and that seems promising.

I'm with you I prefer USPS. There tracking system might not be as good as UPS but all of my orders through them get there safely which is what matters most to me.

Yeah some of the shipping costs on here are a wee bit high.

Man, this is a nice find. Maybe when I get my next paycheck I can get an N64 to test my controllers. ;)
