No, here is more or less easy to find games for PS1, PS2, PS3, Xbox, Xbox 360 or cartridges made by nintendo, not sega or atari, but to find a console like a Nes, Snes, N64, Gamecube, PS1, PS2 or even XBox in like new condition and in box it's hard, not to mention manuals, that's impossible.
If i'm going to buy a console or manual i use internet, it's cheaper than buying them here, easy to find and in better condition, all my consoles are in like new condition and in box ;D.
Cartridges here are more easy to find, cheaper to buy, and in good condition.

Mick Dundee:
The last of my August stuff. All free from my father in-law.

Palmer - you're only about 5 1/2 hours from me. ;)
Right now, I'm just flat broke though. And, that thing isn't easy to move. The entire top half is made of steel and it contains two CRT monitors... I don't know how much it weighs... but it's a lot.
Superchop:
Local flea market find. 4 games for 10 bucks. Couple other vendors had similar deals but mostly sports or kiddie games like dora or barbie. And there were a couple reseller vendors that I browsed but thought compared to the others, they were over priced.
Max Payne is still factory sealed
Mark of Kri and Max Payne I already have but disc only..I was about to buy the cover/manual/box from bresoftware, but it was much cheaper to just rebuy the games.
Also wanted a bit of an opinion. Some guy was selling a dreamcast, with 2 controllers (one 3rd party and original) and cables and I believe a memory card. But it looked pretty dirty and controllers weren't much different. Especially the 3rd party one. He was asking 35 and was pretty firm but I let it go due to the dirty condition. He assured me it still worked but I have a hard time believing a flea market vendor lol. Should I have just gotten it? Dreamcasts around here hard to find and usually highly priced :\

That's still a long time to drive to me. After about 2 hours I start getting grumpy. Lol.
@superchomp-
No I would have passed that up also. You can get them clean for around that price. And maybe with a game.
I picked up my 1st SDC for $25 and it had 2 controllers (1 white 1 transparent green. Both were original) all hookups, and like 5 games.
