My father in-law brought home a pokemon DS case/cover with 5 games in it and an SNES with all the hook ups in a hard case (Blockbuster Ex Rental)

 He said he paid 2 bucks for the ds case and a buck for the snes.

 DS games were: Pokemon Heart Gold, Pokemon Pearl, Lego Harry Potter Years 1-4, Tony Hawk's aAmerican Sk8land and Monster House.
 There was also a Mario Kart stylus (A bit bulky in my opinion)

 Kept HP, P:HG and game P:P to a friend who is perma lending my old DS Lite and has yet to play newer Pokemon games

 brought the rest to PnT for almost $30 credit on my account.

CCAG?  LOL, I was there too!  I was really, REALLY close to buyin that whole box of NES cases because I knew people on this forum would want them (I don't currently collect NES).  I just grabbed a luigi hat and a couple GBA games. Like you said, prices were pretty close to retail, so not that exciting.


That's pretty funny ;D

Hahaha, I was the vendor with the Mario Mushroom shirts =P.  I had the Green one on next to the tournament doors in the back  ;D

Table 34 was ours


Sold a Zelda: Ocarina of Time (in a Minicase) + Prima Strat guide for $25.  Got it for $3 total lol  ;D  ;D

My friend won the Retrode in their Chinese auction and came to me and asked "how much will you pay for it", offered $35 and he said "deal".  Couldn't complain!
