Yo,
I've been collecting NES stuff for quite a while, beginning back in the late 90s when started taking weekly trips to my local Funcoland. Since then, I've been collecting all kinds of classic games when I'm not too busy with school or my other hobbies. I don't have too many genuinely rare or CIB stuff, but my individual game count is at a decent 450. Since it's getting harder to find games I don't already have, I've started paying attention to collecting boxes and manuals as well.
I've actually been away from serious collecting for quite a while... this is my first time in an online NES community in years. I'm going to my newly-opened flea market in a couple hours, though, so maybe my luck will pick up.
See you around
