Maine searching
Visiting family here in Maine, hit a few thrifts, and finally bull moose music, most from there actually, that store kicks ass. Spent 34 bucks all day. Wild arms, vagrant, and driver were all for about 5 a piece after getting a stack and some haggling.

This bull moose had no resellers. In fact when I got out of this world, the owner was like "that was in here?? Been trying to remember the name of that game for years". Ps1 gold mine there..or was anyway haha.
Sanford area...no idea, but find bull moose lol. Also the salvations and thrifts in rural maine are pretty good.
If you hit brunswick try The Game Box, retail prices for sure, but they have a little bit of everything, some pretty rare boxed stuff, power gloves, robs, virtua boys, etc. I almost bought a boxed u force there, but didn't know what a good price was, and also...it was a u force.
Just got back yesterday from another looking trip in portland. There are 3 stores within like 3 blocks of each other. Strange Maine, and Electric buddhas are listed on NA and other places,the 3rd i just stummbled across called Coast City Comics and Toy Box. Strange maine is kinda gross, dink of an owner, Buddhas had some cool stuff, guy was aweseome, we played Atari Blip for like....30 minutes together, but not so good on prices.
But coast comics....WOW. coolest store....ever? I walked in and they had 8 or so pinballs machines, a playchoice 10, several other arcades all ready for play. They were all back there drinking and playing, great times, coolest owner ever. Cool stuff everywhere, boxed microvision, boxed jaguar, boxed colleco, etc etc, decent prices, he made me a nice deal on some games. But the toys and comics there....wow, little bit of everything. Even had the GI joe aircraft carrier CIB, for like 1200 dollars, but still. If you are shopping in maine you have to check it out, if nothing else but to play some old school pinball, even Gilligan's Island!
PS- good luck searching here in the wild tho, these guys all go everyday to each pawn and thrift, everyweekend to the fleas, sounds like they have it locked up here.
I did get lucky with a craigs ad, red gameboy color, mario 2, pac man, star wars, and pokemon gold for 7$ all together, picking it up tonight.... I hope.

I'm actually about 20 minutes north of Augusta but the Bull Moose Music I was talking about is in Waterville.
