    I got a gray Japanese Sega Saturn yesterday with 6 games, three JAP and three US. Came with three controllers, multi-controller adapter add-on, light gun, and apparently, an import playing cart. All of it cost me $20.

    I was pressed for time today,I took a quick 15 minute romp through the fully vendor-ed flea market today(And it was COLD)

    Al I got was the TELE-GAMES BOWLING cart for $2.00 and the SNES for $10.00/with AV and plug.

    The Story of this SNES is:

    Two weeks ago I saw this same SNES in the same vendors stuff at this flea market,only it was piled behind the vendors daughter with other stuff.
    When I saw it I asked them if it was for sale they said NO!! with a shout "SOLD-Everything there is sold!!".
    (just the base unit was seen that day)

    Ok I thought,slow to the game I missed out on that one,but who just leaves their bought item in a pile like that.

    The next week I run into the same vendor and his daughter at a local in town flea market and they have this same Sold pile/same stuff(?) but no SNES....(I figured,maybe they did sell it)

    This week the daughter has the SNES at her feet but it now has the AV wire and plug..I ask,How much..?
    $10 Dolla!!!.........Ok..I'll take it.Put it in a bag...

    I can't figure what that was all about,why didn't they have it up for sale the first day/missing the next then having it again.
    It still made it's way to me and I got it with the AV & Plug.

    I went to see the guy that had the pile of playstation games last week..I wanted to take another look.
    I'd say one or two were worth the $5 asking price and I know this guy he won't budge under $5

    He said he sold them all last week....I can't figure what stupid ass bought all those trashed games for $5 a piece and I left at closing.

    My eBay lot arrived about a week ago, but only recently did I finally finish cleaning and testing everything:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=8160512732





    I was very pleased with the lot since the condition of nearly everything was practically perfect. Also, after trying out the games, I discovered that some of them were cooler than I was expecting, like Tempest X3 and Fade to Black. The big surprise of the lot was that it's a modified system, and the seller sent a whole bunch of back-up games. That's not so exciting for me since I just threw away the bootlegs of games I already had and will hang on to the others until I can replace them with official copies, BUT two of the bootlegs came with minty official manuals for some reason, Saga Frontier and Einhander. Hopefully I can pick up copies of both with their cases in the future and put together complete copies for less than it would be to actually buy them complete.

    As you can see in the picture, I'm showing off the misprinted Final Fantasy VII. :P I'm quite happy with those Namco controllers too. The NeGcon is a blast to play with. I've been playing a lot of Ridge Racer 4 with it lately.

    Hm, all my older game stores gave me nothing. Boy, was I disappointed.

    Luckly, K-Mart made me smile.

    Star Fox Adventures, Viewtiful Joe, and Xevious (GBA classics) for $25.

    Decided to drive nearly 2 hours to a big flea market which turned out to be not as big as I expected. Hardly any gaming-related stuff there, a big disappointment really. But I did buy some SNES games. I thought twice about it, because most of them are in fairly bad shape, but I talked the lady down to $18 for the lot:

    Super Mario Kart, Yoshi's Island, Donkey Kong Country, Donkey Kong Country 2, Zelda LTTP, Castlevania IV, Super Punch Out!!, and Uniracers. All the games work so I figure they're worth more than I paid for them, even though most have bad labels.

    Also bought Star Tropics and Gauntlet II (NES) for $5. Oh and I received R-Type III in the mail today (ebay auction).

    Hitting up the local flea market tomorrow, hoping to score some more SMS games like last week.
