Me too. W/e, it's totally worth it.

[Krepticor]

well on the DC I thought I was but I got the AV Cable and a controller and a VMU with the unit (revision 1) for $15 and the games were 3.50 a piece (good will stores have gone up...)

I have been shopping all summer but I think CT was my greatest deal

I have bought a nintendo (no hook ups or dust door) about 7 NES games 2 PC Games and a DC Game for $15

I bought Gaia for the SNES Dragon Warrior for the NES and Tomb Raider Collector series for ~$14

But these were the ones I was 100% sure about anyway thanks for the reassurance!

Only thing I've gotten from a yard sale recently was an n64 with all cables (but no controller) for $7, although, at the same yard sale, my sister was going to get a genesis and 2 games for $15, but got it cheaper without games because her friend has a lot genesis games and she could buy/borrow some from her.

I got Goldfinger on videodisc.
Not laserdisc, but videodisc. The movie is actually on an analog record! How cool is that? Videodisc owns laserdisc.

Not really yard sale, but w/e.
I went to the dump (with my dad). usually there are just a few CRT's, maybe a few random cables. But today I found the gold mine. Maybe they've always had it, but I found a freaking huge basket full of batteries, a bunch of which are rechargable. I dug in and got a few before having to leave. One came with a charging, and is charging right now I got two other power drill battteries and one 4.5(!) amp hour battery (lead acid of course) which I plan to mod into a powerwheels.
I also got my 6 juiceboxes from overstock.com yesterday (25 bucksd inc shipping!) and have already started hacking.
