Serial Experiments Lain box set *MINT* $2.82

not too bad. they had a TON of anime for real cheap, including the DBZ Saiyan Saga box in great, minty shape for $9.89, and the Neon Genesis Evangelion first box set in the same condition for the same price, but i passed. might go back after pay day.

Totally digging that DK mini arcade! What is the year on that thing?
1981, the colors coming off the screen are just great ;P
Lucky ducky!

I actually haven't gone to a thrift store for a few weeks...school is ridiculous, keeps me way too busy...

yeah i'll probably go back. they also had some anime i hadn't seen before but had been meaning to check out, like esca flowne and princess nine. i'm pretty psyched on the lain set, i had the "navi" disc in high school and liked it a lot but never picked up the other volumes. the DBZ set i think i'm gonna pass on since i have the funimation season one remastered set already, which covers essentially the whole saiyan saga.

Not a purchase but last night while riding my bike home I saw a pile of trash with some RCA's sticking out so I had a look, someone must have beaten to me to it with some things but I ended up finding.

- PS2 - Unmodded (Had door jammed but now fixed) going to my sister
- Playstation - Modded (Swapped it for mine as its in better nick)
- PS2 official controller
- PS1 official non analog controller
- 1 set of PS AV Cords
- Croc PS1 complete
- Point Blank 2 PS1 complete
- Motorhead PS1 loose
- N64 PSU and AV Cables (no console or games).
- spindle of PS1 backups
- PS1 demo disc with case that has Pandoras Box which is a Net Yaroze Game) so I will hand onto it.

In the end the ps1 and backups are going to a friend with a young kid, the PS2 to my younger sister . So I am scoring Point Blank 2 and Croc for the collection and replacing my yellowed PS1.

Free shit is the bomb, have to wonder what else I missed out on (guessing a 64 and some games but cant complain!)

Sold the crap out of some stuff on Craigslist and other places to luck out on this pretty little lady for an incredible price:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... MEWNX%3AIT

The little error code means it just has a dead internal battery, and the Grey Matter E! expansion!

This completely makes up for the trashed Model 1 I picked up about a week ago (which will now be used for various background things).

I got a Panther DC off eBay for $26.04 shipped. It doesn't come with a box or anything, but it's in good shape. I'm not sure if that's a good price for this thing or not. I found very little information about it, so I figured I can spare the money for something that may be somewhat rare. Either way, I think it scores high in novelty factor.

I actually played Unreal Tournament with it for a bit. I think I could eventually get used to aiming with the trackball and have fun playing a FPS with it.

I kind of stumbled into buying this. I was actually looking for the PC version, the Panther XL.

I thought I might be the only person on this forum to own one, but it appears that CRTGAMER has one, since it was mentioned in a couple reviews.

Here's a picture (not of mine) for people who have never heard of this:
