Remember that NESp MK1 I made a WHILE ago..the one with no audio. The day I brought it in school, everyone was like, "Wow, that's really cool". And one of the rich kids actally paid me right there 110 bucks. At first I said no, but I considered it, then said yes, and he gave me 105 yesterday. I just made 105 dollars. And the thing cost me ONLY 50 dollars to make. But of course my mom took it and put it in my account *still trying to figure out my pin

*. Then I told the 'clique' I'm making a PSONEp *which I am*, and they're like ZOMG, COOL!!!!! One guy offered me 175, and I'm like OK! (I got EVERYTHING for cheap...

). So I'm working on it as we speak, but I really gotta thank this site...it even makes me money, all hail this site!

Welcome to the world of lucrative world of portable selling

! I've been manufacturing NESp's (NOAC) and PSp's for a while now. They sell at $150 a unit, then whatever is not spent on parts goes to me! It usually ends up being about $70, seeing as I have most of the parts already. Unless they're my friends, then I only charge for parts and give the portable as a gift. I also have a "source" that can get me almost any old console for free! I got 3 free SNES minis from them. Anyways, do like I did and advertise. My portables are being entered in the science fair w/handouts and order forms. Oh, and don't forget to make a DISCLAIMER!!!

When you sold it, was it still made of cardboard?

Someone told me they'd buy my p64 for $200 if I ever finished it.

Of course, I'd still be in debt up to my ears.

Once the summer comes i'm going to finish off my N64p and PSp (10-1p should be done before then). After that i'm thinking of building PSp systems for people. I think my prices will be pretty good, around $180 if the person does not supply any parts, and then from their subtract $$$ if they supply stuff like a console or screen. If they supply all the parts the price should be around $70-80, pretty good eh?

Actually no, it wasn't in cardboard, I put it inside of a 5"x5" food box square. So at lunch...muahhhhahahah.

Wow. And people complain when I say $150 for a NES Boy, with but $50 of it actually going to me.

Glad you found a cool deal. I have to say that I am quite amazed that he paid that much.

If anyone of you have read the book, The Clique[/i] without losing your masculinity, my school's like that, all rich kids, with the one guy who got in by a test.

So did you get in by the test or are you just rich?

Test man, I'm lower middle class

Linky I can't believe he made $175 off of that

As ugly as the case is, its still a completed portable that looks comfy to play. I'm just extremely surprised somebody paid $175...nice! Did you revamp the case...or is that how it originally was?

Wish I had that kind of money to throw around.
I just spent all the money I had on a microcontroller (BASIC stamp 2), and I'm looking forward to working on more complex circuits.
