This was *my* first weekend really going out after my friends have been collecting / searching for almost a year. On saturday, after a rocky start (the driver got a speeding ticket), I spotted two 2600's on a table. I asked the guy how much - he shrugged and said $2 each. I picked up 2 VCS's, 3 games, 2 joysticks, 2 paddles, 1 power supply and 1 rf for $5... then on sunday, we found a garage sale on our way back from a town sale. I was beat, didn't even want to get out of the car. I got to the house a minute o r so after my friends, so I didn't go to their section, they had it locked. So, I wandered over to the shrubery at the front of the house, saw a strange box sitting on top, asked how much it was - they said $3... turned out to be a NES toploader... not a bad weekend for me. My friend also picked up an Atari Stunt Cycle, but every reference on the board is about the cart version (a remake?)... he's not sure what the hell to do with it, keep it, sell it... they guy selling it had the box and I think everything inside *shrug*. Wow, my mistake, I looked a bit harder in the forums and found a bunch of good info, maybe I misspelled it in the search...
