Scored all this for $28.82 at a thrift store. I had picked up a copy of Silent Hill 4 for Xbox for $6 from the game section then made my way back to the electronics and scooped up the bag of controllers at $8 and the NES RF for $4 (high, I know). I decided against Silent Hill 4 and went back to the game section to put it back and had a "holy shit!" moment as I saw some gems where I had just looked minutes earlier. I grabbed all the N64 and SNES stuff as an employee was stocking the VHS tapes. All the games were $2.99 each. Amazing day! I got out of work 4 hours early due to bad weather (which cleared up like 15 mins after I left) and I wasn't even going to go to the thrifts because I was feeling like I go too often...well, I guess there's no such thing as too often because frequency is what scores the good stuff. I never would have gotten this stuff if I worked a full day, I just wish I had remembered my 30% off coupon today.

I swear to god, you guys make up some of these finds up haha. Every time I visit a store that carries old games it's just 30 copies of Madden 98'. Congrats on the awesome haul!

Total cost: $15


I went into this pawnshop not expecting anything as they price by Ebay then times it by 2. All their GC were $29.99 (console only) but this one was priced $15 so I picked it up and asked for it to be tested out. They didn't have a av cable so they threw in a controller, power brick, and NBA for $15 (as is). He had another guy check me out and he didn't know the deal was 'as-is' so he gave me a 10 day warranty. All I need now is a AV cable but it turns on and sounds just fine. Is there anything else in particular I should look for?

I've been on a nice little streak lately. Dropped by a Savers (different from the one I found stuff at yesterday) and picked up Mario Cart Double Dash and Super Smash Bros. for $2.99 each. No manuals and the condition is about 6.5 out of 10 but I don't have either one and at $2.99 I can't be too picky. As I was checking out the cashier was bummed because he said Smash Bros. was the last Gamecube game he was on the hunt for and proceeded to tell me how lucky I was to find it "because it sells for over $100". I tried not to laugh and refrain from correcting him but I just smiled and said "thanks". I get a lot of people at thrift stores incorrectly telling me how rare and valuable a lot of stuff is. It starts to get annoying and it's kind of hard not to explain how badly they're over-valuing video game items. Does anyone else have come across know-it-alls who don't know sh*t about games?

At an indoor flea market I finally decided to pick up a copy of Star Wars Battlefront 2 for Xbox marked at $5. It's in a Battlefront 1 case (w/manual), which is why I've passed on it for a few weeks but I can still sell the disc on eBay and make a few dollars to help support my gaming habit.

Other notables over the last week or so- an NES Power Pad for $5 and during 2 separate trips to Savers I picked up 3 GC (console only) for $6 each. 2 of the 3 work (the best one shown below). I had extra controllers, cables, and a few games I wanted out of my collection so finding an extra GC at a nice price was perfect for me to bundle it all and get rid of. It sold quick too.

Nice. It's tough o beat that price for a working Gamecube that has just about everything you need to play. AV cables shouldn't be too though or expensive to find if you don't have a set.

Your $6 GC find pretty much put mine to shame.
