I bought mine at Burger King when they were on sale. They were only $3 each anyway.

Was checking out the Kirby's Dream Collection online sale at bestbuy that everyones talking about and decided to check out the clearance items at my local store. They happened to have the LittleBigPlanet 2: Special Edition PlayStation Move Bundles on clearance for $40 so i jumped on it. Will be picking it up Monday :).

None of the stores have it here. It's like it went on sale with no Best Buys in the area carrying it or any online price matching stores with it.


I found the one copy in my area. They went fast!


That bundle is sick for $40 fragems.

I was really surprised myself. I don't generally come across stuff like this. Apparently, someone traded in their Saturn collection to one of the retro game stores a couple of days earlier. Panzer Dragoon Saga, Panzer Dragoon, and a couple of other sought after titles were in the lot. I wish I had been in the store to offer the guy cash over the meager store credit he was given. The clerk was telling me about it trying to get me to buy the vastly marked up games as he was putting them on the shelf.

Mr. Bones certainly looks the most interesting in that entire lot. Road Rash is great and Darius Gaiden looks like it will be guaranteed good times. Somehow Quarterback Attack looks kind of cool too. I haven't played a FMV game yet that wasn't hilariously awful so I'm sure it will be good for a few laughs until I chuck the controller at the wall trying to actually play to win.
"Oh great, another box of useless sh*t."

Main Collection: http://connect.collectorz.com/users/ynjmwil/games?viewCollection=in-collection - Not looking to move anything on this list but would entertain offers.

Yeah :P. Kind of sucks to watch someone get lowballed by a store(Being a business it is understandable that they would like to get merch as cheap as possible but it still sucks to see it), but if it is a place you visit often it's a bad idea to interrupt their deal :P. Best thing to do is wait for the outcome hope the guy says "no" then catch him in the parking lot :).

haha yeah i've done that a couple times. or bought the stuff they didn't want for pennies on the dollar.

i also ended up selling an N64 to someone in the parking lot that i was going to take in for store credit once. they got a good deal and i didn't get ripped off :)

Good day at the yard sales. Bought this entire pile from a guy for $5.

nice find Teh Lurv. This thread has been hopping lately!

Here's my yard sale find for the day. This Xbox system/games lot with 5 Duke controllers = $15

And this was waiting for me in the mail when I got home :)

This arrived via my first time trying AmiAmi for importing. They had the best price and some of the best service I've seen. Will definitely use again! I didn't realize it came with a preorder bonus of the DFK BL Arrange OST, which was a VERY nice surprise.
