Thread: Unbelievable purchase or trade stories!

  1. #301
    made a 'sick' find a couple of months ago. a stack of Motorodeo and Ikari Warriors for atari 2600 NTSC, sealed/new (one of each was opened and checked to make sure it was infact NTSC). a number have been sold at reasonable price at atariage.com on my behalf, the rest is on its way back to me. anyone interested in trades let me know.

    Well, not very amazing, but a PSP value Pack for 200 dollar (new) seems like a pretty good deal to me. Considering the fact that I bought it in HongKong.

    Just bought a complete Japanese Tekkou Teikoku (Steel Empire), for €3,99.

    Found it in a picture of a bulk auction for 100 Megadrive games and asked the seller to sell it to me separately. :happyhap:

    I bought a Sega Multi-Mega for 50 kronor (that's like 3 pounds or 6 dollars) with NHL 94 (the CD-version),Shining Force CD and a 6-button controller on like a market (loppmarknad in swedish, don't know the english word). All of it was in great shape and the Multi-Mega almost looked like it was new :)

    I went to a thrift store and got a brand new Suikoden II for the PSX for 3 dollars! I almost didn't buy it, but I remembered hearing the name from somewhere, so I got it!

    I originally got blank 5in floppies, many 5in Apple II floppy games, blank 8 tracks, an NES console, a Genesis controller, the Bee-Gees Saturday Night Live record, SMB/Duckhunt, many Genesis games including Sonic, Sonic 2 GG Manual, Super Mario 64 box with manual (no game, but I already have it!), Suikoden II for the PSX, & 2 other PSX games.

    All for $25!!!

    Mark, don't open Suikoden. Keep an eye out for another one if you want to play it.

    It came open, but is brand new. Not a single scratch. Not even a fingerprint.

    I could just download an ISO of it and burn & play it on a modded PSX/PS2 if I wanted.

    Yeah. The store probably couldn't remove the original *Wal-Mart* price tag, so they probably removed the plastic cover & put their price tag on the case...

    I got an SNES 2 from one of my friends with 10 games for nothing a while back, and sometime next week another one of my friends is giving me around 40 loose NES carts (some of which are fairly rare) because his NES is broken.

    Well I have a few I can mention my #1 find was a Centipede arcade for only $65 US seller said it did not work, changed a fuse voilaa, and man is it in pristine shape now!!

    I also got a xmen arcade and inside it was a Pac-Man board working for only $50

    Next I purchased a 18 hole minuture golf course thats right a full size mini golf course (rails holes carpet...for $10.00!!! Yup and sold it a month later to someone in Florida for a hell of a lot more!!

    I bought a local game store out and got 20+ PS2's for $5 each and 19 work perfect....seriously..I also got 3 xboxes for $15 each...2 gamecubes for $10...5 dreamcasts for $1. Yeah I got lucky this day!! I still cant believe it to be honest.

    Also got a virtual boy for $1 and a super famicon for only $30 with 20 games..got an atari with 103 games for $50...:p
    But of all of it the centipede is probably the tops these things sell for like $1500.
