July 2013 stuff
BadChad:
The new Tomb Raider was amazing! Probably the first game that got me truly hooked on multiplayer after single player. Even made a few buddies who I play The Last of Us with on a regular basis now (we destroy! ;)). Unfortunately the multiplayer is completely dead in Tomb Raider now, which really sucks because it was really good! So to anyone buying this in the future, this is pretty much a single player only game now... With that being said, the single player was really good too.
I'm surprised these are still sitting around for $40-$50 for a new copy. The multiplayer is totally dead, and my Future Shop's and Best Buy's still have a bunch of those exclusive bundles left over.

I don't normally ever find anything fantastic enough to merit contributing to this thread, but I picked something up this weekend odd enough to share.
I was combing a Goodwill in San Francisco and came up with a copy of Myst III: Exile for PS2 (which they let me have for nothing at the register), and also found a bag full of Atari game manuals in very good condition for a few bucks. Among many others, I ended up with manuals for Pitfall, Donkey Kong, Defender, and even the E.T. game.
I don't collect for the Atari, so I will most likely end up trying to sell them off or trade them away, but I couldn't pass up a novelty like that at the time. :D

Animal Crossing & Donkey Kong were bought on Amazon for $30 each after taxes. I mentioned the Dreamcast shell earlier in this thread but never posted a pic. Also picked up a Wii U game pad case for $5 so it doesn't keep getting covered in dust while I am waiting for more games to come out. :D
Bought Far Cry 3 and Tomb Raider at Best Buy to take advantage of their Buy 2 get a $50 Gift Card promotion, price matched Far Cry 3 for $19.99 and Tomb Raider for $41.12 at the store to match Amazon's price and still got the gift card but only for $42.72 loaded on the card. Oh well on the gift card amount, but better than paying the advertised price of $60 for Far Cry 3 and $50 for Tomb Raider.
I am selling Tomb Raider on ebay because I am not really interested in the game (wanted MLB The Show 13, but they were out), just wanted the gift card. Here is the link for anybody interested: http://www.ebay.com/itm/271235700484?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649
Will sell to someone on TCP for $40, just trying to recoup my money on it.

I damn near bought tomb raider yesterday with a bunch of trade-ins that I had. Bought the Zelda history book thing instead along with MANY copies of SMB2 & 3 ;D
But, I do really want it. Are you looking for any trades at all? I was gonna sell this famicom adapter that I made from an original Nintendo Gyromite adapter, but...

Can't wait to see it!
Hopefully the BNC adapters for my giant box of doom will be here this week. I can't wait to hook that monster up :)

Oh yeah, I will accept trades. As awesome as that Famicom adapter is, I just don't have much use of it at the current point and time don't have any plans of purchasing any Famicom games. I could trade towards the price of Earthbound Zero once they become available though. :D
Shoot me a PM and we can discuss further offers. ;)

9,90 :)

This all showed up in the mail today. It was like Christmas. Not bad for a total of about $165.
