Selling stuff!
CMDLineKing:
Are you like me? Do you have WAY too much gaming stuff? (Arseen) Well.. I do, and I have bought lots of systems and games from yard sales and flea markets over years. They just sort of accumulated in my basement. Now that I have had the privilege of moving them twice, I'm really looking to thin my collection, and ditch my duplicates.
So the past 3 weekends I have been selling my games. The first weekend I went to the flea market and sold there and made about $500. The following weekend, I decided to sell again, but I was much better organized, and had a lot more stuff that I cleaned up and had marked. I made $900. On Tuesday, I went to game stores for my birthday, looking for stuff to buy (since I took the day off). I didn't find ANYTHING at the first 3 stores, but one of the local ones, I found a couple things. I always talk to the guy, and they always offer to buy stuff, so I figured I'd let him see what I had left. He was stunned that most of it hadn't sold. I was priced under their retail prices, and my games were in spectacular shape. I agreed, and he went through and pulled about $830 worth of games. We agreed on $400 cash and $320 in store credit. Cool!
I have ALOT more to sell, but a lot of it is less popular stuff, so now that I made $1500 bucks from my extra junk, I'm not as motivated to go sell what I know will come in much under that.
1x Boxed SEGA Pico w/ 10 Boxed Games
1x Loose SEGA Pico
2x Virtual Boys
1x Boxed Intellivision w/ 30 boxed games
5x N64 Systems
10x NES Consoles
50 - 60 Gameboy/GBA games
etc.
Anyone here interested in anything in the list? It's all more Niche stuff, so if you're interested PM me and I'll take some pictures. Maybe we can work out a sale or trade!
Thanks!,

Would be interested in a price on a virtual boy.
Quazimoto:
Definitely would be interested in a NES console (don't need any cables or controllers - just a good looking and working system). Let me know when you have pics and prices ready. Don't have much games available, but I do have a bunch of knick-knacks and whatnot I could trade.
