Newest findings



Sonic and Mario Stuffed animals = 50 cents each (Didn't even see the Mario until I was in my car getting ready to leave, I looked up and he was pressed up against the side of a clear tote of stuffed animals begging to be saved so I got out of the car and saved him and Sonic)
Mario ball and mario toy = free
NES games = $1 each ( I needed a couple of the manuals and jurassic park)
SNES games = $1 each
Playstation games = $1 each
Mario Quiz cards = $2 (these things are awesome!!!!) (I'll have pics of all the card art in a different thread)

Also picked up a Toploader + 2 dog bone controllers, SMB 1 & 3, Zelda (gold), Ikari warriors, Tetris (Nintendo), Spy Hunter and all the cords for $50, which I've been looking for a damn toploader for a while.

Nice finds, we havent found to much here in PA so far this yard sale season. A couple solid rare ps2 finds, but nothing like this. Only time we found old gen games, they were charding 5 bucks a pop for NHL 98.

-------------------------

Started a new job. Wont be on as much. Fridays are the new shipping day.

Finally got to meet up with a buddy and do some trading. Traded my extra SMB 2s and 3s, some controllers and zappers and a few power supplies and in return got the following. I only took the boxes/instructions on the boxed stuff unless I needed the game too. It's always nice to be able to help out some one local and have them help you out in return

Went and donated about half my closet to Goodwill yesterday and stopped at a few other goodwills and thrift stores on the way back home..

Picked this up at a Savers for $14.99, they'd literally just put it out on the shelf



Then a couple miles down the road the salvation army was kind enough to have this



$13.99 for the SNES stuff, $1.99 for Shining Force...

A boxed nes and a boxed snes in the same day in the wild, not too bad if I say so myself

That slot car is sick, I'm also super jealous of the Wacky Races. I should be picking one up today though but I'll be paying significantly more.

Picked up the Maniac Mansion for $0.49 at goodwill.
Picked up the NES carry bag and a variant of the nes storage things (with the Nintendo logo) from a friend for free.
And I told my mom a while back to find the picture of me opening my Nintendo for Christmas, she hasn't found it yet but found this one of me from a birthday (little blurry because it's a cellphone pic of a pic lol)

Minty fresh NES Action Set almost CIB (missing the zapper haha) but included all paper work, baggies, zip ties, and a bonus SMB3 in the toaster, looks like the box was literally opened one time, and the stuff taken out and thats it. A grand total of $15 bucks. The crappy cellphone pics don't do it justice...

Been a long time since I have updated but snagged this for $2.98 at a thrift store yesterday, the price is on the outside of the cellophane I just haven't removed it yet



And snagged this a while ago at a garage sale, it's as tall as a popcorn tin but only about half as big around
