My big find this morning. Boxes and some manuals only, but $20 took it all. Older lady was cleaning have attic and was going to recycle them if I didnt want them. I am glad I saved them from that fate.


:shock: Even without the games, this is one beautiful sight. Well done sir. Well done.

This may be a big score but I wanted to go to the flea market today instead. I guess I can go take a look at his stuff. I usually stay far away from PS2 but this sounds worthwhile.

I chose the flea market instead! It paid off well. 8)

$83 total for all this

yup!

There's a fleamarket thats every wednesday near me.

There's another Fleamarket that's open every day. With different sellers most every other day.

And in mexico, we have a roaming fleamarket. It's called "sobre ruedas" AKA "on wheels". They set up shop in different parts of town every day. There's a union and they decide which sellers can sell in which area. At least two or three are available on any given day.

Some sell fruit/veggies and some sell clothes. and lots have random stuff.

so yeah we have crackhead fleamarkets! :roll:

I live in the absolute middle of nowhere so I doubt I even have competition here is why I always find good stuff. This flea market only opens on Tuesday believe it or not.

One of the Genesis' turned off and on when you wiggle the power jack so it obviously had the solder joint issue so I opened it up to fix it only to find this monstrosity :shock:

But after a 30 second soldering job it looks and works fine. I still need to get that what I hope is flux off of it, isopropyl didn't work.

Oh yeah, these two have the Sony video chip unlike the last 2 Genesis' I've bought so I will be doing S-video mods on both and selling them here pretty cheap since I only paid $5 each for them. Be on the lookout! 8)

Well i would brag about my .99 on tom and jerry for gbc but the shipping ruins it. I want to see if maybe I can ask the person to choose a cheaper shipping method...7.85 for shipping even if it's going from Illinois to nc still sounds a little expensive.

GBC games only cost me $1.93 to ship via USPS's website. :?

People list ads for Buy It Now at low prices but the shipping prices are the real price of the item sometimes. I think it's a way to bypass eBay fees. So it probably wasn't a deal.
