Wow. I probably would have jizzed in my pantsnoiseredux wrote:It was the craziest yard sale ever. The guy had several kids who had been video game junkies growing up. But they moved out years ago and left all their shit in his attic. He was ready to clean house, and just wanted the shit off his lawn. I mean, I found a Nomad right away, and said "how much are you selling video game stuff for?" He handed me a big box and said "fill this up and it's $20" -- I said.

Re: Video Game "Finds of the Day"
haha. I turned to my wife and said "ok, we're gonna be here a while." I think we were there well over an hour. It was truly amazing. I'm hoping he has another one soon -- he said he had more boxes he hadn't even gone through yet!itsmattxp wrote:Holy shit thats amazing.noiseredux wrote:It was the craziest yard sale ever.

Noiseredux: I want to punch you so hard right now.
I did get some brand new Monster Cable 200 Stereo Audio cables at goodwill today for only $2. Definitely worlds better than the crappy freebie cables I'd been using with my DC for the audio out of my VGA box.

if it makes you feel any better, the chance is good I will never have the same yard sale luck again.Mod_Man_Extreme wrote:Noiseredux: I want to punch you so hard right now.

I was just going to edit it as I saw that. Awesome job.
My finds today weren't nearly as good. I got 3 Xbox games complete for $6.
Crimson Skies - original version
Kingdom Under Fire - The Crusaders
The Lord of the Rings: Two Towers
All are in great condition - seems like they weren't played much.

Re: Video Game "Finds of the Day"
I am humbled by your awesome garage sale find. I went garage sale hunting today, and all I found was 6 old Nintendo Power magazines for 50 cents. Not bad, but nowhere near great.
