Picked up Popful Mail for the SegaCD from MobiusClimber here on racket for $80. Its not crazy cheap but still a decent deal for a pretty rare game.

I think I forgot to mention that I got boxed Tonic Trouble and Conker's Bad Fur Day (cart only) from Chris Leach for a cool 51.20

[Hobie-wan]

OMG, I totally forgot to say that Mike included a sweet ass Priority box a few weeks ago with that DC. Shipped right to my door at no extra cost how cool is that?

Decent day - it is really yard sale season around here. Fleamarkets have been jammed with the cooler weather also.

Intellivision Plug and Play 2nd Edition - $2
Silver GameCube controller - $2 (cleaned up well, buttons are great)
Black PS2 Slim CIB - Very Good to Like New condition - $40

The PS2 is fantastic, had all the pieces wrapped in their original material. I've been wanting a slim since my original is 10 years old now and has had heavy use. This came from a one-off seller at the fleamarket (i.e. not there with the same junk every week) so I was pretty thrilled.

After three months I've decided that enough time has passed after my last find that I won't feel too stupid to post something else.



Plug N' Play Intellivision - $1.50
Ecco Jr. - $2
Master of Monsters (Box and Game only, no manual) - $2

Not pictured, last weeks find:
Super Nintendo AC adapter - $1

So that's the second copy of Master of Monsters I've found this year. Honestly, I just bought it for the cover art and box. I've already got the game and manual from the last big find, so in three months I've managed to piece together a complete copy Ecco Jr. was in a blank case, as you can see, and was sans manual. I think I'll put my copy of Crusader of Centy and it's manual in there and print out a cover for it from the Cover Project.

And I was soooo happy to finally find an adapter for my spare SNES. I've been looking for one for over a year. While wandering around the thrift store I saw someone push a cart full of stuff out from the back room. When the just left it there and went back into the storage room, I walked over and glanced into the cart, not really expecting to see anything, and lo-and-behold, there was a very recognizable grey plug sticking out from under a couple of things. A little digging and there it was, all nice and shiny and labeled $1. That's the last adapter I was missing too, so no more fruitlessly digging through boxes of random adapters. Admittedly, it's a small find, but after over a year it made me quite happy

today at my job i got: Zelda Orcarina of Time 3D.

Got it a a nice price too.

It was 29.97 clearance and I put my workers discount (10%). I had two giftcards which ended up being $9.50 and some Store credit (points) equal to $6.80.

All I put was $12.24 from debit.

Not too bad for a Zelda game. Not to mention the Club Nintendo points.
