I could not believe they had those systems. Normally when I go they only have a few NES or Genesis games and maybe Gen or NES system but not that often. When I walked in they were sitting on the counter so I thought there were sold but there was no one around just the employ. So I asked if they were for sale and he said yes 14.99 each I was like "I buy take them" they had just pulled them out of the back for sale. Paid for them took them to the car and went back and found the other games. I don't think I will ever find a deal like that again.

Surprised they didn't just think it was some old cd player and charge you like $5 for it.

Well by all means it is an old "cd player". So that wouldnt be that far off from the truth. I mean you can use it for a portable discman.

Haha. I'm picturing you being so flabbergasted with excitement that all you can utter is "I...buy take them." Nice pickup!!!

Nice finds dude!

I still go into Goodwill at least once a month...only to find the same ratty old CIB RBI Baseball 3 for Genesis and a nasty looking 3rd party N64 controller. One of these days I will make a finders keepers thread...one of these days...

Not quite a CDX (but very similar), but I found a JVC X-eye with no cables for 4.99 at a goodwill a couple years ago.

Nice find on both.

Dude that is insane. Awesome find! Whenever I goto Goodwill I find shitty Sports games for every system. XD Never find consoles anymore. I found 2 Genesis systems and that was it over the course of 5 years. >_<

Nice scores, but I still don't like Goodwill much.

Went in yesterday and saw a game marked $1 on a garage sale sticker, the GW had it for $2.99... I complained and got a dollar off.
