I was up and out the door around 7am, it was pouring all morning, but lots of subdivision sales!


Got this for $10. 5 controllers and the game. The guy said its slow at reading games though. Also the universal component cables.


$5 for the N64, 2 controllers and 2 games. They were asking $10, but took $5 because it was missing the AV cables.


GBC and 3 games for $10.


Gamecube, 10 game, just needs some controllers....$10



And my g/f's mom goes garage saling twice a week, so I gave her a list of stuff to keep an eye out for. She picked this up for $3.

Haha, I'm hoping its not just beginners luck. I was heavily collecting NES stuff about 2-3 years ago but just recently got back into it. I've been watching stuff on eBay but its almost not even worth it anymore. The lady was asking $15 for the GCN, and $2-3 per game. But I acted like I wasn't really interested because it didn't have controllers and she said "Nothing is coming back into my house, make me an offer".

The people that had the gameboy color had $20 on it, and also a old school fat one for $10. I've got a few of those, so I just offered $10 for the Color and they took it.

Wow, some great deals! Even disregarding all the systems you got, there was a reasonably valuable game thrown into every deal (except the GBC lot, but that was still decent). The power of haggling: you've got it!

Ok wait, that Xbox deal kinda sucked in my opinion.
