Boxed Game Boy Find of a Life Time
So I just had the greatest find in my history of thrifting. I spent more than I've ever spent as well but I'd say it was worth it...
Started the day at a bunch of thrifts, finding nothing. Hit a Play n Trade and found this though:
Hogs of War (disc only, printed cover): $19.99
Robopon 2 Cross Version: $2.99
Bionic Commando (GBC): $4.99
Sonic Triple Troulbe and Sonic Chaos: FREE (all handheld loose games were b2g2)
Thought that would be it for my day, was happy enough with getting Hogs of War. Then I stopped into one last Goodwill. Initially I only found 3 things I wanted:
Sonic Heroes: (PS2) $2.99
Deathrow (Xbox): $2.99
Sid Meier's Pirates (Xbox): $2.99
Was happy enough with that, just when I was about to head out a guy walks out of the back carrying a cardboard box filled with some game boy boxed games I could see. I immediately followed and when he got to the case up front I was there and got first dibs. PERFECT timing. All of the Gamecube/PS2 games were $2.99. All of the boxed Game Boy//Game Boy Color/Game Boy Advance were $4.99. The boxed GBA SP was $19.99. All are complete except for Mario and Luigi which is missing the manual but has the rest of the paperwork.
The initial 3 and the other 4 I'm keeping as I didn't have them.
Monster Rancher 4
Mario Party 4
Mario Party 7 (w/ mic)
Sonic Adventure 2 Battle
These 6 below are for sale, I already had them. All complete. Feel free to offer if interested.
Gauntlet Dark Legacy
Star Fox Assault
Super Smash Bros Melee
Phantasy Star Online Episode 1 & 2
Luigi's Mansion
Mario Kart Double Dash
These 7 I'm keeping the games, but the boxes/manuals/inserts are all up for grabs. I don't collect CIB:
Lunar Legend
Harvest Moon GB
Dragon Warrior 1 & II
Legend of Zelda LTTP
Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga
Fire Emblem
Tactics Ogre the Knights of Lodis
These 5 I already had and are completely for sale.
Metroid Fusion
Metroid Zero Mission
Zelda Oracle of Seasons
Golden Sun the Dark Age (even has the map!)
Gameboy Advance SP 001 Cobalt Blue
I'm ball parking the total value at about 785.00... not bad, lol, spent 115.00. A lot for a goodwill trip but I'll make it back. Can't really trade on this one sadly, getting married in a month and need the money so sales only. Offers can be made until tomorrow, after that these go on eBay except for what I'm keeping.
