Maybe he found the systems I threw out. I tossed a working N64 and white Saturn in the dumpster because I had to get rid of them when I moved back to the states. I had no room for them. Nobody would take them and you have to pay electronic recyclers to take your stuff.

I found these being tossed:

i dont understand people that would toss things you can:
1)sell them to ebay

2)donate them

3) give them to some one in a flea market

no reason to put it in the trash

Putting stuff in the trash is the easiest, quickest option. Some people are so lazy they won't go through the effort of listing something on ebay even for $10.

Oh the in-cab-anity!

Did the cabs make it back or did you leave them homeless?

Yeah, it's a bit perturbing that some people will just huck that sort of stuff in the trash. I know it's the easy, lazy way of going about things, but it would be nice if these things just went to the local good will or something.

Any unwanted Neo Geo cabs should be going to the local me.

...Unfortunately I'm not too local to most of cab caches. :(

This makes me sick. Who tosses out arcade sticks and a freaking Dreameye?!? An angry ex that's who.

1) I had no time. It's not worth it anyway. The trouble of packing and shipping in my tight schedule just for a couple of bucks. I realized at the last minute I didn't have room for a lot of things. The dumpster was just right there. I already told my landlord I was out on a specific date. Remember, I was moving from Japan to America, I wasn't moving down the street. A lot of stuff had to go.

2) Nobody would want them. I tried unloading them at recycle shops. They didn't want them.

3) Flea markets aren't a thing in Japan. So that's out.

They wouldn't fit in my suitcase, so yeah, they stayed there. Those weren't mine. I found them by the garbage bin on the side of a stripmall.
