Today's my 27th birthday! I got myself Legend of Zelda Link to the Past for SNES at Book & Music Exchange.

Congrats!

Can't wait to see the cover for it ;)

Thanks man! Already posted it up!

Nope cart only just got home with mega man 64 and castlevania legacy of darkness cost me $100 had 95 in trade credit tho really only $5
Was that including Paper Mario. Because $100 for Castlevania and MM 64 is a rip off. You can get MM 64 new on Amazon for $35 and used for $15. LAD seems to go for $25-$30.

Hate to break it to you, but $45 for a Paper Mario cart is overpriced.

You could have gotten a cart off Amazon for $30, and saved on the gas

Or, if you're lucky, find a cart at Goodwill for $3. That was where I found a 2nd copy to flip.

Kelly, stop buying games, dammit!  I'll get to the local shops this weekend and find these games for ya!  Just hang tight. I know you're itching to complete that set, but don't go overspending :(

Damn kelly, half the fun of collecting for me is searching out deals.  I may not get the best deals in the world but at least I feel like I got a GOOD deal most of the time.  You seem to be spending just to complete a collection as fast as possible.  I mean if money is no object that's one thing, but I'm sure it is at least in some capacity or you would have just spent top dollar for a full collection.

I received a $10 PSN card if anyone wants to buy it off of me.  I can't think of a real use I'd have for it.

Father in-law got a box of 30+ XBOX and 360 games (most near complete) for $25.  I took LotR Return of the King, LotR Third Age and Dynasty Warriors 6.
He also let me trade my Platinum Hits KOTOR II for an original in the same condition.
 
He got RE 4 Wii Version with a PS2 style wireless controller that uses the Gamecube controller ports for $5...gave me the odd controller.

 Hes selling Mass Effect, Quake Wars, Lego Star Wars Complete Saga, and a couple more 360 I cant remember. The Original Xbox ones weren't anything special though. A somewhat rarer Star Wars game, Halo, Halo 2 map pack....that's about all that's worth mentioning.

 Also got my Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fate and my 2nd foreign video game in my collection; Lord of Arcana Slayer Edition .....this thing is cool....i am extremely impressed with the simplest thing....a Clear/RED UMD case.

Both Amazon.ca and eBay.ca are BRUTAL. There's so much more stuff, and at much more reasonable prices, on the American versions of these sites, but sadly shipping is often restricted to the US. If it isn't, the shipping can be ridiculous! $15 to ship one copy of Nintendo Power to Canada?!

I hope you're not only looking at the NEW offers. Otherwise, that would be considered a joke offer lol

Tell me about it.  You might want to just bite the bullet and buy it.  It's not getting any cheaper.  I just won a copy on eBay and wasn't cheap but not too crazy.  A reseller near me had it at 90 bucks and I thought that was crazy.  Turns out that was a good price compared to what it's going for now.

Shoot I've been collecting NES games since like 1990 and still am not a 1/4 of the way there, thing is thou I don't buy them unless I find them at sales, or if it's a title I really want.

I could have sold you my Castlevania 64  for cheap with shipping if I would have realized it sooner.
What are you looking at? You think baby's don't like video games? THEN YOU DON'T KNOW SHIT ABOUT BABIES!!
