Video Game "Look what I found"

[WARvault]

hey, that is awesome. Would love to stumble across something like that, being a new convert to the GBA. Where in Aus are you located??

The randomest find to be honest, it was a Toyworld clearance centre that popped up in an abandoned haberdashery shop here in Alice Springs, NT. We are only here for another 2 weeks or so, then we are heading (back) to Western Victoria...

i finally got a chance to check out Game World on college mall. cool store but their prices seemed kind of hit or miss. like, $30 for an original game boy. but $25 for a gb pocket. weird.

yep, this is where i got a gamecube component cable for $10, they actually have another store on the other side of town, but i have better luck at pawn shops so i don't go often.

How is the box and seal on that conker's - is it legit, not shrink? Any rounding of corners, etc?

To be honest, I'm not 100% able to tell when the shrink wrap is Nintendo or aftermarket. I've been burned a few times. Most of my other sealed N64 games have some kind of store sticker on the seal. This has nothing. No hang tab in the back either. But the "feel" of the wrap is exactly like my other sealed games. So it throws me off. The box itself is easily a 9.5/10 as far as corners and such go. I'd say it's my second nicest boxed n64 game. I'm just going to assume that Conker is in there, and not a box filled with Top Gear Rally re-shrink wrapped. LOL.

Huh, news to me. I don't get out to second hand stores much these days, kind of lost interest and I leave a lot of stuff behind that I'd normally buy a year or so ago. So have fun, hope you find some good stuff.

I only said that because you have skunked me out of a Sega Master System twice now. And I still don't have one. Remember that score that you got that had the master system mark II and all of those games a few months ago? Yeah, the lady told me that they were mine, and I was on my way to pick them up and when I got there, she couldn't find them. Her husband or whatever was like, I just sold them to some kid. Then I see your post on here an hour or so later about your find..... LOL. Needless to say.... I was annoyed. Not really your fault though. Then you skunked me out of a master system AND a genesis with SMS player attached at the Goodwill next to my work. Right as I walked in the door (for my daily lunchbreak trip) you were putting the stuff in a basket. D'OH!

$45 worth or reasons to hate him forever

By the way guys, all of the Jaguar reviews are true. This system is not worth the hassle to track down and pay high dollar for. If you HAVE to complete a collection, I suppose it is an aesthetically pleasing system, but he games suck. I'd much rather have a more complete SNES collection or something.

I fully plan to start buying/selling/trading on here as soon as I get some rep built up. I'm not in this game to make money as a re-seller though. I find it really hard to part with my stuff, even when it's doubles. But I now have something like 8 complete working Genesis' and various other systems and games. I think it's dumb for me to have that stuff, when some other collector out there could use it.

Pic?

There should be a seem running down the center of the back of the shrink and possibly some hangtab residue.

Minty / Open CIB Conkers - $75ish
Legit Sealed Conkers - $110ish
Legit Sealed / Graded 85 or better - $250+

Def. worth get it checked out if you think that box is a 9.5/10.

Oh yes, we've met before. I never saw you around or heard from you so I figured you moved away or something.

I do remember buying up those genesis systems. Wouldn't have purchased them had I known some one had already claimed them. I wasn't even aware that was a master system till after I had it home.

You'll have to let me know what you're looking for. I can let you know if I come across any of it. If you need something to play master system games on I can part with a power base converter.

Did you buy those boxed NES games in GP?
