The Official "Thrift finds" Thread

Hi New member here hope this is the right forum I recently found an old watch stashed in a box in my attic. I think it belonged to my older brother in the 80's. When I checked on it I found it was supposedly highly collectible. Can anyone tell me about it. It is a space attacker watch by nelsonic. I would be grateful for any info.

 

Thanks

JIM

 

Oh man, I'm pretty sure I had one of those! I say pretty sure, but I can't remember what happened to it. Seems to me that I bought one, found it kind of sucked, and exchanged it for a different watch. I just remember that between me and my two older brothers, we had every kind of digital watch you could get at Kmart!

Man, did they have any other saturn games? $3 for any Saturn title is a good buy.

Couple snoozers, this was about the only good one on the shelf. I can't believe that store actually squeezed out a cheap, but quality title. Must have been mis-priced icon_ponder.gif.

 

 

Snoozers or not, let me know if you go there often. Send me a list of any titles via PM if you do. I'm going for a full set, and there are some crap titles with low values that are actually hard to find. Ah, filler titles. That and cases. Man I wish I got some of those new cases when j2 was selling them for $3 each.

I feel the same way about cases. Nintendo used to sell replacement Gamecube cases, now they stopped that. Also, before they stopped that, they even had the harder to find double-disc cases. I should have stocked up when I could.

I don't feel like taking a separate picture or listing everything but I won the Big Game Hunter / Game Gavel Raffle a few weeks back and the package of goodies came today :)

I never find Chuck Rock GEN in the wild; weird that two copies showed up at one flea market. Regional rarity anomalies, I'm telling you. There's something to it.

got a freaken slot machine for $40 at a yard sale today! unfortunately it only takes these goofy chuck-e-cheese-type tokens that luckily came with it.

 

it's called GoGo Juggler V, and apparently my mother is not letting me take it home. she is in her living room playing it as i type this. ROFL!
