I bought another Xbox 360 250gb off Craigslist for $100. It came with a controller and a bunch of games. I immediately traded the system and controller into Best Buy where I received $195 credit towards a 2nd $349 Xbone to keep at my girlfriend's place. BB was only offering 25 cents-$1 a game so I'll keep a couple and eBay the rest. It is the Master Chief Xbone with Halo digital download *shudders*.

I also got State of Decay for $29.99. Looking forward to trying, but my son came home and wanted to play Super Smash Bros so I got kicked off the Xbox. Haha

Not quite a *pick-up* so much as something I got done. Friend of mine has a laser engraver so I got this done. Not quite sure what to think yet.

Don't have a picture but received my wiiu gamecube adapter and gc smash bros controller from gamestop.  Feels great knowing that I paid retail and not the over inflated scalper price.  (Not that I'd pay a scalper anyway)

Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

Doesn't look too shabby.  A little too close to the top IMO though.

We've tried a number of tests on various DS/3DS consoles and I've never much cared for the result.  ABS and polycarbonate (in the case of the original 3DS) don't really deal well with etching.  It's OK, but not like acrylic or wood which are excellent materials for etching.

$6 for all of the PS1 games.  Got to love flea market season.

***EDIT***  Wipeout 3 has the wrong insert.  If anyone has the scan, I would appreciate it. 




Also found these at Goodwill for $15.  General Chaos is complete and extremely clean.  Lemmings needs a new label  :-[

I also finally found these two Spongebob Squarepants bendable figures, I had them when I was younger, probably 2003 or so, I got them from Universal Studios and I no longer have the originals. I know there are 4 other characters, but I've never seen them for sale ether. I remember US only having bins of SBSP and Patrick.

Also on a VG related note, Nickelodeon and THQ was the Disney and Capcom of the PS2 era. I was playing a bit of Battle for Bakini Bottom recently, great game. One of my favorites on the PS2.

$5 for the lot, I only care about the 2 figures.



Also more figures:

Had a pretty solid pickup yesterday from the austrian craigslist counterpart ->

All are CIB. Not mint by any means but nowadays you have to take what you get for reasonable prices.



Woot!

Paid $30 plus I traded an extra copy of E.T. for the 2600 for everything here.
