all three are the ones with the audio CD.

Games have been clearance at the store for a few months now.

The few that are coming in are full price, and a few left over are clearance now.

Although whats left is slim pickins.

I may just buy them. Some people here love CIB, especially zelda.

Well, it's pretty much guaranteed that you'll be able to sell them for more than you paid. Especially if you hold onto them a while.

First party Nintendo stuff in general tends to hold its value well.

I plan on picking up other game series and giving them the custom jewel case treatment - they just look much cooler than your standard DVD case.
whoa... where do you buy your jewel cases?

Not bad today. I've been wanting Stubbs for a long time and finally found it for a good price at a local thrift store, another thrift store had the PS1 storage case for a couple bucks.

The big buy was definitely the RE Longbox, it was $20 at my local game store but still much better than online prices. And its complete and works.

^^^ 6 or 7 years ago, those longbox games were a heck of a lot easier to find locally. I think collectors have taken a liking to them.

The same store has quite a few more and I could clean him out, but I'm in no rush and they haven't been going anywhere very fast. What's funny about this grab is that I brought in Discworld when I found it last week to get buffed and we started talking longbox games, Resident Evil was mentioned and since the weekend somebody traded a copy in.

I wouldn't say this was a great find, but an excellent surprise to me.

I just gotten from UPS a package. It included a copy of The Amazing Spider-Man (PS3) and Sports Champions/Medieval Moves PlayStation Move Bundle (PS3) and it was for Free.

Apparently, I won the Carl Jr/Hardee's "The Amazing Spider-Man Video Game" Promotion they had in July. I do remember entering a code(s) on their website, but I thought that all I won was the spider-man wallpaper. This is awesome surprise and can't wait for more surprises this month! (if any)

Yesterday..

Tales Spin Nes in box no manual. 5.99

Phantasy Star 3 loose. 3.99

A new game store opened up and it is possibly the smallest space to own a business in I have ever seen. Had alot of current and past gen stuff and a few retro games. Probably wont last long but even though talespin is terrible I couldnt pass it up in box.

Also courtesy of the nescomplex there is a new crew on youtube shooting gamechasers/retrohunters/flea market madness style. They call themselves Retro Liberty...check em out. http://www.youtube.com/user/retroliberty
