So, I hit the thrift. Lately (past month or so) it has been really bad. Nothing much to speek of. Last couple times though, it has been better. I got a Commadore 64 (no cords) and the 5.25 floppy for 10$ altogether. Havent tested it yet. They have the carts out now, so i had them hold them for me till black friday. I also got a GeniStick for a dollar, works perfect.

Yesterday though, my friend sam calls me and asks me if i wanted this gold japanese multicart. he was at a flee market near his collage, i got it. He called back a little later and asked if i wanted this Victor system. so i looked it up online not knowing what he was talking about. A Victor WonderMega. sweeeeet deal. 10$ w/ cords, and 2 wireless controllers. hell, yeah.

i love the flee markets and thrift store. way better than ebay, you get a sence of acheivment when you get things there, unlike ebay. well, not nearly as much.

Thats the thread for posting your thrift store/garage sale/free finds.

To the mods: Why was this taken out of the stickies again? It seems to be a fairly popular topic...

more than half my collection has come from goodwill. It's been quite good to me.

I need to do an update for a new Post Your Collection thread

ive gotten very little from goodwill in the past that is game related, most of mine has come from garagesales and auctions, recently havent got much game related stuff but today i did buy a magnus electric chord organ for 6$! lol
