    Not console related but i bagged this joblot of 10 graphics cards and 3 mobos on ebay for ............£58, Untested but i hope they work: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MEWN:IT&ih=003

    Contains the following off which the 8800gts will be used to game on my computer and i'll use one of the mobo and a gfx card in a Rig i was/am building for my father:

    Graphics are as follows:
    *INNO3D NVIDIA GEFORCE 8400 SERIES 256MB DDR2 TV + HDCP PCI-E CARD (BOXED)
    *ZOTAC NVIDIA GEFORCE 8500 GT 256MB PCI-E (BOXED)
    *HLS ATI RADEON 1900XTX 512MB PCI-E VIVO EDITION (BOXED)
    *ASUS N7600GS SILENT AGP 8X 256MB (BOXED)
    *SAPPHIRE ATI RADEON X1650 XT 256MB PCI-E DUAL DVI (BOXED)
    *INNO3D 7600 GS SERIES 256MB DDR2 AGP (BOXED)
    *INNO3D NVIDIA GEFORCE 8800 GTS PCI-E 640MB DDR3 (BOXED)
    *SAPPHIRE ATI X1650 PRO
    *XFX NIVEDIA GEFORCE 7900GS 256MB GRAPHICS CARD (BOXED)
    *

    MOTHERBOARDS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
    GIGABYTE S-SERIES GA-P35-S3G MOTHERBOARD,(BOXED)
    NFORCE 65OI ULTRA MOTHERBOARD (BOXED)
    FOXCONN 66IMX PLUS MOTHERBOARD (BOXED)


    If i can at least have the 8800GTS working then i've paid a good price since the lowest priced 8800gts is £70 with shipping on ebay and i can't find a 8800 lower than £58 anywhere i've looked.

    You can't convince a believer of anything; for their belief is not based on evidence, it's based on a deep seated need to believe.

    $7 for a Sega Nomad with a perfect screen.
    $15 for a N64, 5 games and controller.
    Free Model 2 Genesis and 7 games for free from my next door neighbor.
    Free PS1 with 2 memory cards, 2 controllers, cables and a copy of Spyro in my neighbor's garbage lol.
    Free Xbox with a broken disk drive which was easily fixable from my cousin's fiance.
    22 Atari 2600 games and booklets in an old filing cabinet someone was throwing out. Great titles I might add.
    Slim PS2 when traded for the 360 version of Guitar Hero 2

    Wow Arkanoid, 7$ for a Nomad... Very nice.

    I got a pretty nice deal on ebay recently. 16$ for a boxed Sega Genesis Model 2 with Sega CD 2, including both AC Adapters, two controllers, and all the little details like the expansion port covers, CD audio mixing cable for using it with a model 1, even the manuals.

    Yeah this lady down the street was selling all of her son's gaming stuff after he went to college. She didn't know what it was and neither did I at the time so I did the thing any true gamer would do if they saw something like that, I bought it. She even wanted $10 for it but all I had left from the other stuff was $7. I swear as soon as I go to college I am renting a storage unit so my parents never do that to me. Nice deal with the Genesis/Sega CD combo. Mine cost me $60 from Play-N-Trade with only 1 controller but it did come with a Model 1 Genesis which I sold back since it was in crap condition and I already have a Model 2 which looks better with the Model 2 Sega CD.
