My sweet find! (7800 games)
There is a localy owned used game/movie/music shop here in town that I frequent. The guys at "Cool Stuff" are awsome, the prices are good, and best of all they know their stuff! Anyway, on to my find:
I went in to see what new stuff they had gotten in. As soon as they saw me they motined me to a cabinet full of coloco, 2600, and 7800 games. They pulled out a few 7800 games that I instantly recognized from the label types. They were the infamous "Tank Command" and "Water Ski." Needless to say, I was excited. The pricing at "Cool Stuff" is 2/3 of DP book, which isnt bad at all. I really wanted the tank command, but didnt want to pay $47 for it (I know, $47 IS a good deal). So since I know them pretty well, I asked if they would cut me a deal. They said "No problem, the price tag on there is just for regular people, we knew that we got these just for you." I was so happy. As I dug through the rest of the 7800 games, I managed to find 16 total games that I needed all with instructions. The rarer/more valuable of them included: Tank Command, Water Ski, Xenophobe, F-18 Hornet, and Tomcat. To make a long story short (too late), I offered $50 for the 16 games and they gladly accepted. I think that both myself and "Cool Stuff" made out pretty well. I got a great deal, and they made at least $30 on the deal.
Anyway, thats my story. If anyone doubts my story, I'll post pics on monday.
