But the what if is going to kill me, what if there was something frekin killer in there and now ill never know.

You might still find great deals, but I guarantee you won't find anything "freaking killer" by picking through with sloppy seconds.  Someone already got all the good stuff for sure.

^ alot of times all the mario's Mega Mans and popular games like that will be gone...but you can still find less poplular rare games after the fact such as Color Dreams/Bunch Games. The last batch of cib nes games I got  were looked  at Prior to me... but there were still games like power blade 2, galactic crusader bucky ohare.  Most People dont know what "rare" Nes games are,  they only want Mario, contra, Mega Man.

Are you talking about the one in Culver City?? I was there around 11:30 this morning only 2 hours after he posted the ad. There was pretty much nothing left. Damn vultures.

EDIT:  After I missed out on that sweet find, I knew somebody here would post about it.  I'm surprised that they all sold out that quickly...only about an hour and a half after the ad was posted.

Yeah, I find stuff in the wild here that's been "picked over" and tend to come out pretty well. If it isn't Mario, Castlevania, Megaman, or Zelda (and Double Dragon, oddly enough), it tends to sit.

Best of luck.

What's this tournament you speak of?  I'd be interested.  Where/when's it at?  Could you give me more info?  Thanks.
