Yep, they're mine, but don't let this sale fool you guys -- I'm not planning on selling out any time soon (if ever). I always said to myself that the only way I'd sell off some key games is if they were all purchased at once in order to make the sum worthwhile to put towards other things.
I just thought this would be a good way to put together some scratch towards buying a boat. My wife said that if I wanted a boat, I'd have to sell some other toys to pay for it -- fair enough. Now I'll be able to work on NA on the water, via Wi-Fi!
Thanks everyone, I think Dain and I are both very happy with this transaction. Everything looks really nice in the pictures he gave me (the Myriad is awesome...)!
Just makes you wonder what Backguard would have to pay for a CIB SE doesn't it, since it was on his want list and remains there. MUHAHAHAHA... and no mine isn't for sale.
Dain, in banking I've made boat loans and even bank a boat rental guy. The funniest boat comment I hear over and over again is: "The two happiest days of my life were the day I bought my boat and the day I sold my boat!"

That's a pretty common sentiment around here for sure, and there's definitely truth to it -- maintaining a boat is a pain, and boats are notorious money pits. Who knows, I've been puttin' off buying my Shelby for a while now, so I may just sport for that instead (or both, but I'd need to sell a few more toys!).

I've heard that same exact quote word for word from TWO separate people too, there has to be some truth to that.

I see you're playing henry hatsworth.. any good? I saw a positive review for it
Eh, I was playing it, I actually have been playing Earthbound (just beat it on Saturday) and then switched to Greatest Heavyweights on the Genesis. I can't really get into DS like that when I'm sitting at home so I lost interest. I'd still say it is definitely worth a play, and it has a high level of difficulty like a traditional NES platformer.
Jesus Christ you two! Absolute craziness! I knew as I saw the list of games that it was Dain's. But only because I'm a stalker and I know exactly what he has .

Don't buy a mustang...Please. I beg of you not to be one of them (unless it is an old shelby)
Speaking from sport car experience. I own an 88 Trans Am GTA 350 TPI with 38,xxx original miles...1 of a few thousand produced.
Too many females drive mustangs now a days, and they just dont have the "umph" they used to.
Since you traded in some big guns for it, get something that will hold its value.
Im sure this convo can spiral out of control with me hating on mustangs, but hey, gotta voice my opinion
I like my *current* Mustang just fine, but I want something with a bit more kick.
I grew up in a 'Stang family, so I'm afraid it's in my blood. I feel the same way about the Trans Am as you do about the Mustang -- I'd never ever own one. Most of the desirable older Mustangs are simply too expensive. Sure I'd love to have a '69 Boss 429 or a '68 GT500KR Convertible, but that's more than I want to spend. There's some decent prices now on the '08 GT500KR's, so I may look at one of those.

Yes, the Trans Am and Mustang are quite the rival. However, its still a chic car in my eyes Also, I like the rarity of the Trans Am. All you see on the road are stangs (most commonly on the side of the roads, or with chics driving them with cigarettes hanging out of their mouths )
Maybe if we ever meet up in the future, we can go head to head. I got a 6 second car right now (mostly stock, with some extra kick from some hypertech performance chips and tuners) how about you
This is my car. This was posted BY THE SELLER when I purchased it. I bought it recently in March 09, everything was completely stock. This is my 3rd TA. My next purchase will be a firehawk
wow, that price seems a little on the high side, but purchasing them from dain... you know you wont get screwed! nice buy!
When was the last time a sealed and graded Myriad sold? I don't think the prices were high at all -- I think they were very in par with current market value.
I think the grading bit is kind of irrelevant with myriads given their generally low grades but with nick's myriad (really quite beat up, much worse than yours) at over 5k, 6k for this one is fair to both parties

So can we start planning a NintendoAge boat party in North Carolina?
Dain's games?

And at least if you bought a '68 stang, the value would remain steady for the most part. 08 would dramatically decrease.
