What makes it worse is that he also offered me over 100 copied PSx titles, which I declined. Argh, why am I so honest about copyright :crying:

Not sure if it's a miracle, but I got a stack of Sega Saturn related shit (promos and stuff) for about 2500 yen, and got these two CD Singles in there:

Nights CD Single
Segata Sanshiro Single

No, but it did have two Silhouette Mirage's in there. One damaged, one not-too-bad. :)

How did you manage to find that lot for 2500 Yen? Er well I got the Galaxy Fruelien OST / PC Engine Soundtrack for 21Yen.

I binned a load of Promo PS2 PAL games (about 50 odd), mainly because most of them were shite and I didn't have enough time to arse around trying to give them away.

I would have had them....take anything me ;-)

same here, if anyones throwing anything away throw it at me! (unless its a giant truck full of games and consoles, in that case just drive it at me instead)

Basically I was looking through my games as my friend needed some attic space back, after a lot of reboxing I had a box of PS2 promo games and some other junk left over as they included such delights as F1 2001, Tekken 4, Fifa Soccer something or other and lots of other drivel, I asked my friend if he wanted them, he said no, it was too much hassle for him to try and get rid of them, so we basically dumped it in from of a charidy shop before I left, I was leaving the country the next day so...

Shining Force II, PAL. Free! Boxed and all in good condition :)

[Parris]

Toshiba 40" rear projection TV. A friend of mine emailed to say his in-laws were ditching their TV and although it cost them £2k only 5yrs ago they felt it had no value, did I want it?

I actually had to sit and think about it as I felt somewhat guilty. Eventually my friend insisted I accept as he didn't want it and it was probably going to the skip otherwise, so at some point in the next week or so I am taking delivery of a big ass TV...

Incidentally, this was a mate I met via Freeshare! Just to carry on with the discussion about it's virtues! Who the hell thought they'd be offered something like this? Not me that's for sure!

PEOPLE, GET FREESHARING!!! <Freecycle is available throughout Europe & US>

They go for $150+ regularly.

[Keiji Dragon]

I bought an unopened, factory-sealed Um Jammer Lammy for $1.78 + $3 S/H at Amazon. Best purchase I ever made.

[Athrun Zala]

probably the best deal I've ever done was getting a brand new sealed RE:CV copy for $5 back in 2000... because at that time, DC games cost about $100 over here...

What a waste! :crying:
Why not give stuff like that away/ebay it, rather than just destroy it?
