Cheapest you have ever paid for a game?

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

Copy/Paste from my blog that seriously needs updating but worth bragging

Price: $13.50

Sega Master System, The SEGA 3-D glasses, a Light Phaser and quite a few games, most of them boxed and a stack of loose carts, no AV cable or RF Switch and no AC Adapter, but being a collector for a while, I have a few spares.

Everything is in good condition and most of the games have manuals and some promo posters. The games are:

(Boxed)
Maze Hunter 3-D
Poseidon Wars 3-D
Black Belt
Great Basketball
Rambo First Blood Part II
Hang On/Safari Hunt (x2)
Shinobi
Great Basketball
Pro Wrestling
California Games
Gangster Town
Rocky
Out Run
Miracle Warriors

(Unboxed)
Double Dragon
After Burner
Time Soldiers
Altered Beast
Lord of the Sword

And a monopoly box and manual with no game.

I've gotten lots of cheap games at yardsales. Legend of Zelda: OOT, Star Wars Shadows of the Empire, and Pokemon Yellow for a quarter each, Complete copy of Arcade classics on the genesis for fifty cents, cart only copies of Mario Tennis, Teleroboxer, and Nester's funky bowling for the virtual boy for fifty cents each. As for the cheapest at a store, from K-mart I've gotten: Prince of Persia:SOT, NFL Head Coach, SSX on Tour, and Burnout 3 for $2 each and a copy of Psychonauts for $3.

Nice finds! I can't decide which one of you I hate more!

I'll check what some of these games go for on average to see how much I should hate you all soon...

By the way, YratNuLov, I see that's your first post - welcome to Racketboy. Mario RPG is quite rare, isn't it?

You're all wizards and witches, I tell you...

A sealed copy of NBA JAM TE for 32X for $1.88 is probably my best buy.
