Cory
Hello fellow gamers and collectors! My name is Cory and I've been collecting for just over 3 years. I live in a decent "hunting" area in Idaho and I teach special education at a middle school. I mainly collect NES and am up to 255 games not counting variants or doubles. I tend to stay away from CIB just because I have a dog that I don't trust and a 4 year old daughter that is great with my games, but shit happens and why risk it. I have yet to purchase a game for market value and have gotten lucky with some yard sales over the summer, picking up some heavy hitters such as: Duck Tales 2, Wacky Races, and The Jetsons- Cogswell's Caper. The resellers seem to be growing at an annoying rate so the market has been flooded, making it really tough to land a good score. I don't have time to play as much as I'd want, but for me, collecting is just fine.

Great Story, you've got a commendable profession, thanks for your work.
Finds few and far between are common as everyone else seems to be experiencing the same thing.
If you've found ANYTHING at a garage sale in 2-3 years, consider yourself lucky, haha.
