Yeah, perhaps you're right. I'm from Chicago but I live in SoCal now. I'm definitely familiar with Disk Replay. Love that place! The seller lives somewhere in IL so that sounds about right. Meh- I'd say only 25% or so didn't have that ugly white sticker but the far worse silver "void" sticker. Thanks for pointing that out.

Really - wow. Very nice gesture too if you take him out, since he wasn't asking for you to sell them and doesn't want cash.

Watch out. First it's dinner, then they want to come in for coffee after and get wandering hands.

After a very long Goodwill drought I scored my first, and probably only CIB Gameboy game. Caesars Palace was priced $4 in the random household goods aisle mixed in with some stationary and folders. The game also being in a plastic shell case was a nice surprise.

There was also a Donkey Kong 2600 cart for 25 cents mixed in with the cassette tapes that was probably in nicer shape than the 3 or 4 other copies I have, so why not.

Let him know that if he orders soup that counts as his meal. No saving it.

^ :lol:

Here's a little background on this find: I moved out of my parents' house years ago. Every time my father visits he brings bags of stuff that I supposedly left when I moved. Today he says "I'm bringing over an old game system you had as a kid."

I did not own this as a kid.

I got my first N64 in 2010 or 2011.

I have never played Mario Kart 64.

:lol:

I had a pretty good Craigslist find today.

$70 for all 4 of them. The guy had Ni No Kuni as well but sold it before he got my inquiry. :(
