noise: nice grab on that flight stick. very, very good price and it's the best way to play ace combat on 360.

today i picked up 6 13" PVMs and 4 Extron RGB units for about $60 at a surplus auction. if anyone needs a 13" PVM, hit me up. (i still have some 20" PVMs i need to get shipping quotes for :oops: )

bummer of the day: was going to look at a non-working Pac-Man machine today for $150, got there and the guy said he had "just sold it" to someone else because he thought i wasn't coming. oh well.

Haven't been really into finds for a while, but my Wife was able to make a pretty sweet score tonight. She has been checking out Facebook sale postings, and came across a Gameboy Advance SP with charger for $10. The lady then tells us as we are on our way that she found another gameboy and she will do both for $15

Turns out to be a black, and silver SP (001 model, front lit) and a charger. The black one needed a little cleaning but looks good, the silver is pretty scratched out on the outside, but looks good inside. Really awesome score for a great price, so proud of my Wife for catching this deal!

$3 Goodwill grab. First DC game I ever saw at my local store too, hidden amongst the music CDs. Case in perfect shape, disc is very good. VGPC prices for CIB are currently $10-$15.

Yeah I've actually seen a ton of DC games pop up. They're usually sports games but when it's something interesting(even if I don't have a dc yet) I try to grab them. It's kinda hard to pass something like that up when it shows up there :lol: Especially since it seems that dc, and gc are both rare finds there especially one that's not one of the more abundant sports games here :?

^ Sweet. That TMNT one with the different shape brings back memories. I'm trying really hard not to start collecting those lol. Someone had a NiGHTS one at a flea market and I'd never even known one existed but I passed for fear of starting a collection because I know I wouldn't play them, like ever. They're really cool and nostalgic though.

Every GC game I've seen at my Goodwill were missing the manual or the disc has been jacked up. I see PS1, PS2, Xbox, and 360 titles there all the time. It's also a good place to find PC titles disc only and big box versions. But a DC game that isn't a throwaway sports title? Heck yeah.

OK day at the garage sales.
GameCube with 1 controller, all hookups, and a Mario Party mic - $10
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune - $5
I'm just happy I finally got a GameCube. Had a chance to pick one up 2 years ago with Smash for $20 but passed, and have been kicking myself ever since, especially because I don't buy online and the only GameCubes that go up for sale in my area are from people who want $50 each for them and charge $25 each for controllers. At least now I can finally play my only GameCube game and easily my most treasured piece of my collection: Mary-Kate and Ashley Sweet 16: Licensed to Drive.

Exactly they're almost always ps1, ps2, and xbox for me. With a few 360 ones thrown in here and there. But gc and dc, like i said is hard to pass up I think I already have at least 3 or 4 dc titles because of recent spots. Those never started showing up until recently which is a shock. The gc ones I've seen before but it's usually a madden title or something I'd rather not see on a rare occasion(was shocked when I saw soul calibur II a few weeks ago...had to jump on that one :lol:)...
