--- Quote from: FritzWhite on March 05, 2014, 03:02:46 PM ---I try to find deals when I can and I own some nice items for which I'm proud of the price I paid, but if you aren't willing to suck it up and shell out some bucks for a few of the retro titles you really want you could be searching forever and still never find them. My time isn't worth gold, but after a certain point, it's not worth it to invest tons of hours trying to save a few bucks on some rare game. I love the thrill of the hunt as much as the next guy, but the more games I cross off the list, the harder it is to find what I want. That's why I rarely move on craigslist deals anymore. Ebay is so convenient. I can find my games in the same position I'm in now. If I'm on craigslist it better damn well be a smoking hot deal for me to actually get up, drive, and then go deal with a stranger. People spend thousands of dollars on stupid paintings and bottles of wine they'll never drink and they're smart for buying it because they're getting something they want. Get and do the things you like and make you happy. We're all going to die anyway. It's stupid not to be happy a bit before you're dead. --- End quote --- Agreed |

I know, ebay is a freakin jungle man and it keeps getting worse :'( I did recently manage to snag a copy of Metal Storm for $37, good by ebay standards :) |

So I had some UGC's to trade and told FritzWhite to send me whatever he wanted that I didn't already have. I did request at least a Dreamcast controller if possible as I only had one "official" controller. I love blind boxes. :) Here's what I received today: Dreamcast Controller in box with VMU Super Famicom to SNES adapter (requires SNES game plugged into back) Puzzle Bobble for Super Famicom Genesis: Alex Kidd in the Enchanted Castle Mystic Defender Kid Chameleon PS1: Croc 2 CTR LEGO Island 2 Mortal Kombat Trilogy The Next Tetris Pac-Man World Tomb Raider Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation Xbox: Halo Doom 3 PS2: God of War II Ratchet and Clank Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando Red Faction Red Faction II I also stopped by the local Gamestop and got a couple of things for me, and a few games for my daughters birthday next month (the 3ds games) 3DS: Nintendogs + Cats Super Mario 3D Land PS3: Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD Remix |
