    Got these on Monday.

    $14 shipped from GameTZ. I've been looking for Reservoir Dogs for a while.


    The AD&D module sets are pretty much complete, and include two extra ones. I got those for $3, but I plan to trade 'em away. I wanted to sell them... but their condition leaves a lot to be desired. The Smokey Bear comic is oddly hilarious, and that set me back fifty cents. The Zip 100 USB drive is new in box and cost me $5 (this was $8 yesterday but I went back for it today.)


    Star Wars Rebellion is complete and cost me $3 (well, the CD is in a sleeve, it doesn't have a case...) The GC Universal Studios game was $4 at Gamestop. The CDs:

    Reel Big Fish: Why do they rock so hard? (too scratched / unrippable)
    Frank Zappa: Make A Jazz Noise Here
    John Mellencamp: Uh-huh
    John Mellencamp: Whenever We Wanted
    DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince - He's The DJ, I'm The Rapper (replaces my older, beat up copy)

    The CDs were $1 each with the exception of Make A Jazz Noise Here, that was $2.

    And apparently I missed out on a ton of PS1 games. Again.

    Hey, not gonna mention the Rick Astley CD? Or was this some sort of a bizarre, photo-Rick Roll?

    Yesterday I posted a couple things that I picked up at Wal*Mart. I was at a different one today and I must say that when it comes to clearance at Wally World, YMMV. They had the same NDS headset that I paid $2 for on clearance for $14 and where one store had the PS2 accessory pack for $15, this one wanted $30 on clearance, just for the 2 memory cards.

    I did the lot sale again....

    At the bottom of a box I scrounged a lonely Game.com, no stylus or anything. I looked it over and it was in pretty rough shape. Duke Nukem 3D ($0.25) was in there so I pulled it out and got it. Other than that I got a manual-less copy of Namco Museum vol. 3 (PSX) for $0.50. I really didn't get anything else.

    Oh, and no attempt to outdo Kitsune or anything , but I got a loose 8-track Doobie Brothers album. My 2XL needs some China Grove!

    (And I have a really small 8-track library, consisting of 3, now 4 tapes)

    Genesis 3 boxed: 20
    Sega channel with power adapter: Free with genesis
    GBA boxed, new: free (kinda)
    10 dollar bill: FREE

    As i was walking near the back of the flea market, i spotted the genesis box. After checking its contents, which had the power adapter controller and bagged system, i asked the price. 20 bucks. not bad. i looked more in the box, some nes games, jurrrastic park yada yada. But i saw this odd looking thing...Sega channel? It looked cool, and it might be worth something so i put it on top of the box. I showed it to him, and he still said 20, so i guess it was free?

    Anyway, my dad kept nagging me to make sure everything was in the boxes etc...I Thought it was annoying, but when i got home i realized i had forgotten the attena. Im not sure if it was just ,missing i forgot to dig it out of the box but im mad.

    Anyone know what the sega channel is worth?

    As i was walking by another stand, i saw a boxed 5200, kinda ragged box. The 5200 looked brand new, the controllers and power supply still in their respective cardboard holders/boxes, and 2 boxed games...for 40 dollars. Now dont get me wrong, id buy that up instantly, but i am in a 58 dollar debt, and the 5200 will only raise it to 98, which is something i just wont allow. I was dismayed at leaving such a thing behind, but as i was walkign away or looking at something, i noticed a green object. Upon further investigation, it was a 10 dollar bill! Sweet! Now my debt is 10 dollars lower, bringing it to 48 dollars!

    Oh and the Game boy advance boxed new is a gift from my dad, he found it at a garage sale.It has never been used, and has all the instruction books with it, in their baggies.

    Ummm... I forgot.

    I also got a PSX (I think...) carrying case for a buck. It's a soft back-pack looking thing that I think is for a PSX system, it is emblazoned with the original PS1 style logo. I also got copy of HeroQuest (for $2!). I saw HeroQuest sitting on a stack of books in the corner and did a "WTF?" style double take. Yes, it's the original 1989 Milton Bradley board game. I wish I had friends that are interested in this stuff so we can play . The box is a little beat up, but it seems complete. I'm going to look at it later. It's going to go to eBay for the "Ryaan1234 needs a car" fund .

    There was a punk band called Peter and the Test Tube Babies that did an album of all Rick Astley covers, it was titled Shit Factory. What a hoot!

    I didn't find that much of interest today, top gun for NES CIB for $3 and hudson hawk sealed for $20. (Honestly, who donates sealed games to goodwill?) I bought both of them and asked the manager if he saw anything else of the such in, and he said a sealed terminator 2 for NES came in with the others but was sold already. To bad, someone probably opened it. There were also some disney laserdiscs, they were cool but $7 a piece so i didnt get them...I hate how my goodwill figured out what laserdiscs were and stopped thinking they were records and pricing them $1.
