Alright so I picked up another lot at the Pawnshop today and found something somewhat odd. Apparently they changed the box art of the Prince of Persia Sands of Time Greatest Hits to that of the Prince of Persia Forgotten Sands box sometime around 2010 :P.

Image

Today's Pick Up for $41.18 after taxes.

Image

Mario Kart Wii is actually still sealed, and the rest are CIB except for TY, Animal Crossing, and Tak 2(which I accidentally picked up without noticing :P).

Edit:
As I feared the Mario Kart Was a reseal and the game wasn't in there :P. I have to remember to open their items up in store next time :P. They don't check their items very closely and this isn't the first time I have been burned :X. Actually tipped them off to 5+ empty cases they had out on the racks today :P and have found their cash register keys in a game case before lol.

Still wasn't a bad deal and they gave me 30% off the whole lot anyways.

stopped by my local thrift store and saw something i don't see everyday:

Image

...a SNES! and on top of that it's surrounded by PS1, gamecube and the most popular system of all time VTECH!!!!! I also saw a turbo duo controller which was also uncommon to me.

note: the only thing i took was the picture.
