maybe some boxed stuff, the X3 I would probably only part for cash, the PDS I might trade. I just bought a Zelda Wii U bundle so want to get some money back. I will have a box of good stuff with me Saturday when I come by.

I've never been to one of these - is there any reason for an attendee to bring stuff for trade (ie. unwanted games and/or systems)?

I'm gonna be there, taking some CIB TG16 games, with the carboard outer box, a few SMS games, and some NES commons to trade. Around what time are you guys gonna get there, and maybe there is a certain place NA members can meet up?
