October 2014 loots.

Speaking of assholes, I should be posting yesterday's pickup here which would have been an N64 with two controllers, all cables and 11 games for $50.  The games include Mario Party 1 and 2, Super Smash Bros, Marko Kart 64, Donkey Kong 64, Goldeneye, and 5 more games.  The seller agreed to the price, a location to meet and a time.  Than about 30 minutes later sent me a message and said, sorry man, it's sold.  This happened on a local yard sale facebook page which has specific rules about backing out of sales once everyone is in agreement.

I then later found the same system on the local retro gamer facebook page from the guy who bought it.  He was listing it as his pickup for the day.  Now he is reselling everything for market or higher.

Ya I would report him. We have the same thing around here and that same exact thing happened to me. Except the dude I was buying from never contacted me so I ended up sitting in a parking lot for about an hour. Later that night he sent me a message saying he had to go to work. I was pissed.

happened to me too many times.

The opposite also happens.... some people asking to meet for some stuff I sell.. then not showing up or answering message after! How hard is it to email me to let me know that you changed your mind? Shouldn't be as hard as breaking up from a long relationship

I was not sure about it, I did not wan the new system I got to be done with just after I got it, and loose the thrill of the hunt, but at $12 per game, it was not a bad deal on the pricey ones, and I can make a bit back, selling the 3 I have (Wario, Mario Clash, and V Force). I am now 3 games away from a full US set.

You should feel lucky.  We have no local retro game scene.  I have to drive 2 hours to even hit a mega replay.

Lots of buying on Nintendo Age and Ebay for me.

Mega Replay? Where are you located pringlesman?

Cool, how much did you get it for?

I'm debating If I should complete my set, I got 3 US games to go
one cheep - Baseball, one pricy and not very good - Waterworld, and one good but very hard to get the NTSC version - Jack Bros.
Then there are some Japan exclusives, most very pricey.

To thous who own it, Is the Japanese version of Jack bros worth getting. all the text is in Japanese, Is it necessary for play?

[FritzWhite]

Got everything here for $22.

[Megatron]

How much for a shockwave controller?

[palmer6strings]

[larryinc64]

Are those USB? I might want a SNES one.

[Lashek]

How much for one red and one black Super Retro controller?
