I picked up a nice 25 inch CRT TV with Component inputs at Goodwill today, $20. Since I had recently component modded my SNES, I tested it, and my god, looks better than RGB.



Why is it upside-down?

The image is mirror flipped. The SNES on top of the TV is a dead give away.

Yep thats it exactly. I do not know why my camera did that, but yep its mirrored. Either that or I swapped controller ports on my SNES.

I bought that same tv new and it cost me $2200.  It is a great tv but like you said it just weighed a ton. I still have the stand you can have it if you are ever in Rochester NY.

Got this between yesterday afternoon and today. All together under $20

SNES Controller has the etched Nintendo logo, Traysia is complete in good shape, PoP Hint Book has some picture with it in a waxy envelope and the Fantasy dragon things  are D&D type metal figurines that are a year older than me.

From my adventures today:

I picked up Paperboy, Hogan's Alley and Dream Master from a dealer at a flea market (so I payed too much). $20 for all three.

Zelda Collector's Edition was found on craigslist for $15.

And the real gem of my day... a 3DS XL in near new condition for only $100 (also from craigslist).
My DS Cover Requests: Anno 1701, A Witch's Tale, A Witch's Wish, Black Sigil, Dynasty Warriors, Flower Sun and Rain, Mage Knight Destiny's Soldier, n+, Time Ace

£20.00 GBP - That's about $30.00 USD at the moment, for the following;

Nintendo 64 console,
Mgadrive II console (with 2 pads),
two classic GameBoys (One grey, one clear)
+ 7 Megadrive games (PaperBoy, Jungle Strike, Taz escape from MarsP, MicroMachines, Lion King, Super Monacco GP & Fiffa 95)
+ 3 GB games (Super Mario, Super Mario 2 & Tetris)

It's a shame there weren't any N64 games - I think someone else had them.

A couple of weeks ago i got;
BOXED & Complete - Super Mario Bros 2, Mariokart 64 & Mario Golf
for £5.00 ($7.50)
