New blood from Montana!

Yo! I'm stoked to find a new community! I can't wait to learn some new things and help grow my NES collection. Games are scarce here in Montana. Stuff is hard to come by. Any and all friends are welcome!

    I'm originally from Missoula. Fun Trade usually has a gem or two hiding somewhere.  If you're willing to put in the time to find it and they let you behind the counter.  Also assuming they don't price check whatever you bring up...

    Hey, good to hear you're originally from here! And yea, Fun Trade does ok. But they price like idiots. Spoke to the OWNER, and he said he prices games by searching eBay. Not sold items mind you, ALL listings. Even ridiculous Buy It Nows are averaged in. Wanted $15 for a loose copy of Batman on NES. that's a little steep. They make collecting hard. But, I've bought quite a few things there when I just wanna play something new right away.

    Yes I have personally experienced his faulty pricing myself multiple times.  And that $50 copy of Kirby's Avalanche is probably still sitting in the glass case.  But I do walk out of there with a $20-30 (or $100+) game for $8-10 more often then not.  Usually on SNES though.

    Is that where you got MMPR: The Movie for the price of MMPR?  Or was it Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt NES for the SNES price?  I seem to recall both of those being something you've said now.

    Yes.  On that trip he marked Sky Blazer up from $8-10 to $50 (it was a $30 game at the time), and marked MMPR:TM at $10



    Honestly though, the guy has hooked me up a few times.  I brought up a near-mint complete King Arthur and the Knights of Justice that was marked at $50.  He looked it up, commented that it was worth more, and then honored the price.  Though maybe he looked up King Arthur's World by accident because KAatKoJ is worth a lot more.  And he honored the price on the Duck Dodgers I bought.



    The store is pretty depleted now though.  The stock is a fraction of what it was, and I couldn't find any deals last time I was there.
