Easily my best haul of all time, I'm still so pumped about it and it was two days ago! I grew up with the GameCube and it is my favorite console, so getting GC games is the best especially since I never see them in the wild. I got all of this from my sister's boyfriend who decided he was going to get rid of all of his old gaming stuff from when he was younger..and for $5 a game! Total on this lot came out to $125, and according to pricecharting is worth about $460.



Not pictured is a Wavebird Controller and Gameboy Player with disc, also only $5 each

I actually ran out of cash when I was buying them, so when I get some more cash I'm going to get some games that he couldn't find that day (such as Pokemon Crystal and Platinum and Paper Mario for GC  ;D)

No pictures as of yet but I did pick up:

Pokemon Pearl
Pokemon Soul Silver
Pokemon Blue Rescue Team
Pokemon Explorers of Time
Pokemon Black
Pokemon Black 2
Pokemon Ranger
Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia

Posted for $80.

From my rough estimate that's $220 or so worth.

The month keeps getting even better. Went back to the same guys house and picked up the last few games I missed and others he had found and also hit up some yard sales this morning.



Friend Pickup $35: Super Mario Galaxy 2, Sonic Heroes, 1080, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, Dragon Quest, Bomberman, Pokemon Ranger and GBA to GC link cable

Yard Sales: PS2 $10, Sonic Generations 3DS $5, Sonic Generations 360 $5, Sonic Colors $5

Pawn Shops/Goodwill: Donkey Kong Land 2 $5, Jak 3 $3 and finally...from my local Goodwill that somehow only ever has a lifetime supply of DDR for PS2 and Madden 99 I managed to find this



Yes that is a $0.50 sticker on the cover  ;D ;D

Really!?! I don't play Pokémon games but I just saw a copy today at my local pawn shop and they had a CIB copy for only $15. Maybe I should go back and grab it...

Aton7, that is a killer pick up!

Yeah BadChad, definitely worth it. I bought a copy for 20 and sold for 70, bought a cart only for 8 and sold for 50. This is AU prices though, even then I though those were ridiculous :P

Had a killer n64 pick up today:

For $170 I got:

Conker's Bad Fur Day
Gex 64
Rainbow Six
Mission Impossible
Killer Instinct
Mario Kart
Pokemon Stadium + transfer pak
Pokemon Snap
Hybrid Heaven
Goldeneye
WCW/No revenge
and Bomberman!

All PAL including manuals + extra manuals for
Ocarina of Time,
DK64
Diddy Kong Racing and some others.

The price was worth it for Conkers alone seeing as that sells for like 170 for some reason.
