These three bundles were $8.99 each at Salvation Army. Since Silent Hill was in one stack, RE2 and Medievil were in another, and RE Director's Cut was in the third, I decided to go for it. 29 games for $26.97 isn't so bad considering. The pawn shop worker said $5 for all PS2 games. I said yes and thank you! -

Closing out 2013... These were $5 each at Salvation Army. Looked around for the Ar tonelico book but to no avail. Budokai 3 is disc only and was $1 and Soul Calibur II is still sealed and was $5 at an Out of the Closet thrift store. $5.99 each at Goodwill. The Apple Newton 110 is complete as far as i can tell. $20 from a random thrift. -

These were part of a $.99 sale for DVDs, CDs and games at a Goodwill bookstore. The Six Seasons and a Movie DVD is a document of a Community-related art show in Los Angeles. These were $5 each from a couple of hole in the wall thrifts. Paper Mario is missing the manual. -
Up for sale is a Video Reflex cartridge by Exus for the 2600. It is tested and works great. Asking $50 shipped (within the US). Thanks for looking!

From the last week or so... $3.99 "soft goods" bundle from Salvation Army. Battle Arena Toshinden is the Not For Resale version and C&C Red Alert has a bonus Resident Evil 2 manual inside; I sold a RE2 without a manual a few weeks ago. Such is life. The Japanese Mario Kart 64 was $1 from a random thrift. The PS1 games were a total of $5.96 at a Goodwill bookstore near my work. They have a bunch of Xbox, PS2 and 360 games for $.99, but as you might imagine they're all sports and very common titles. Found these at the neighborhood Goodwill. The Sewer Shark is sealed with a few small tears. When I brought them to the front, the cashier commented about how weird it was to see them, and that there were a few there the day before in the CD section (where I found Street Fighter II Turbo) including "some Woody Woodpeckers". So after I paid $5.99 each for those two I decided to mosey back to the CDs and take one more closer look... Got it for $2.99. I've now owned all three, though I sold the first two a while ago. -

Finds from Savers-Street Fighter III New Generation soundtrack was $1.99, Black Dahlia was $2.99. Very tragically, it's the case only. Still got the blood pumping at first glance. From Salvation Army. -

Goodwill finds-Diddy Kong racing and Phantasy Star Online Ver. 2 were $5.99, Grandia II was $6.99. $1 at a random thrift. I actually found an opened one for double the price a few months ago, and as someone who is entertained by things that are absurdly wrong, this is a big-time winner. -

Escape from Monkey Island and Full Throttle were $.50 each from a hole in the wall thrift. Ultima II floppy was $1 at a different thrift. $5 from another random thrift. There's a dent in the front bubble and a little creasing in the bottom left corner, but is like new otherwise. -
Bermuda Triangle is its own game, different from the Bermuda hacks. I think the cart is more of a pre-release/demo than an actual prototype, but I could be wrong. Still a cool thing to have.

Flea market finds: NES Remote Control and Championship Bowling are both complete, in great shape and were $5 each. GC Custom Robo and PS2 Freaky Flyers were $2 each, and the Japanese PS2 Evergrace II was $5 Goodwill finds, $5.99 each. MP4 and MKDD are missing their manuals, a too-common trait the I've been running into lately among GameCube games. -

Last 2 days... $5.99 each from Goodwill. $5.99 from Salvation Army. It is unopened but the shrinkwrap is open on the right spine of the box. These were found at a Goodwill for $5.99 each, all new and sealed. I wonder if these were part of a store or warehouse drop given the Blade II and Cabela games for both Xbox and PS2 (there was another sealed PS2 Blade II that I left). -

Murder Club for IBM was $5.99 and Math and Me for Apple II was $4.99 at Salvation Army; both are still shrinkwrapped. It seems like this is a legit Korean release, or a very well done pirate. This was also at Salvation Army. I pity the fool who would not spend $1 at SA on that shrinkwrapped VHS tape. Devo was a $.99 delight at Goodwill. -

Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge Brian fan too and was very excited. He and Jello are definitely two distinctive stripes of the California sound. I actually found a Honeys CD autographed by Brian's ex-wife Marilyn recently at Amoeba Records Hollywood. Paid $20, which given the fact that it's a hard CD to find and it was signed AND was at Amoeba is not too bad. Very true, and guys like me fall for it to get the nuggets. -

Just another manic Monday... $2 at an Out of the Closet thrift. $5.99 each at Goodwill. My closest Salvation Army has taken to bundling games by system lately. This PS1 bundle was $9.99. This GameCube bundle including WarioWorld and a Game Boy Player disc on the top (to go along with the player attached to the Cube) was $35. -
