kyle Posted February 1, 2004 Author Share Posted February 1, 2004 I have a three county area in NC WAYNE JOHNSTON and WAKE that i have hit regularly for the last two years. I have about 200 atari games and i found about 80% of them in those countys. About todays finds. Last weekend i was at a flea market in Johnston county and a family had a booth sat up with some NES and SNES carts and other stuff. Well i asked them if they had any atari games? The woman said they had a big box at home in the attic and they would bring them next saturday (today) So anyway i got up this morning and me and my wife made the hour and a hafe trip over there not really thinking the woman would bring the games. But she did! She had a box with about 30 games 8 of which i didn't have video cube being one. I asked how much for the 8 and to my shock she said $5.00! ATARIPTBULL i can try to figure out how to take a pic of the games with my webcam and post it here i guess? I dont have a digital camera.

Mord Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Just got back from the flea market at the mall myself and returned with: Kangaroo, Air Raiders, Challenge, Pitfall (blue), Space Cavern (blue), phoenix, Swordquest:Fireworld, Star Wars! The Empire Strikes Back, one-on-one basketball (7800), and Robinhood/Sirlancealot doubleender. On average it was about 3-4 dollars per cartridge, canadian. About the cheapest I find around here. Must go back again next week. -- Mord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian M Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 Sigh... Just once I'd love to be able to go to a thrift or Pawn shop and find something other than Combat or Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt carts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolt Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 Hunting here in the New York area has collapsed in the last two months. The shop where I used to go get games for $3-4 a piece is now charging $10 a piece, regardless of whether it's ET or Eli's Ladder (OK, they don't have Eli; I just wish they did). Any local ads I track down selling Ataris invariably want 100 bucks for a system and 15 commons. All this has changed in the last 2 months and now I'm fed up with trying to find local stuff.
