I never pass up boxed PC games other than shovel ware. I've sold some for really solid prices to people that would appreciate them more

Very nice find! I love picking up black label PS1 games, and I certainly would not have passed on any those for $1 each.

Answered an ad on Craiglist for a Gamecube console which included four controllers, one being a Wavebird. This would be have enough as I think it's a good deal for that amount. The guy was moving out of state and wanted to get rid of this. He mentioned that he had a few Gamecube games but they sold during a moving sale he recently ad. Hearing this, I asked him if he had any other gaming stuff that he wanted to get rid of. He said that he had some PS2 and Super Nintendo Stuff. He mentioned that he had some "classic SNES RPGs". Before I met up with him I asked him around how much he would sell each PS2 and SNES game for, so I that I could bring enough money. He said $1 for SNES games and $2 for the PS2 games! This made me very excited but I didn't want to press too hard so I said I would look at the games when I came to pickup the Gamecube. I arrived there and got the Gamecube and asked about what else he was selling....

Image

The PS2 ($2.00/ea) & PSX Games ($1.00/ea)

I was surprised that he had some pretty darn good Playstation titles. I honestly wasn't expecting to purchase them as I'm not a big disc-game collector. I couldn't resist these as the price was just too good.

Image

The SNES Games! ($1.00/ea)

When I saw the SNES games, I almost freaked out. Obviously the prices were an absolute steal, so I just calmly said that I would take all of them. He even had the box for FFII and some instruction manuals.

Image

The Extra Instructions! (Free)

He then got out a stack of extra SNES instructions. Unfortunately, these were for games that he could not locate, but he gave them to me for free! When I flipped through them, I almost had my second freakout!

Image

The Whole Lot! ($50.00)

Definitely one of my luckiest finds. I know its totally cliche', but always ask if someone is selling anything else! You never know what kind of deals you can get!
