7/23/11: Lots of Goodies for the 'bay': Random Yard Sale $25
It's been awhile, but I couldn't resist posting this score! Stopped at a random yard sale. Picked up a few PS1 and PS2 games (including this gem: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180700076532&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT ) for a $1 each!! I told the guy I was a collector, and he showed me this stuff:
NES 2 controllers, and hooks ups.
SNES 4 controllers (2 3rd party wireless, no receiver), and hook ups
Dragon Warrior 1-4 (O.O)
A couple good SNES RPGs (can't think of them atm).
All for only $25!!
Here's a link to the Dragon Warrior games (sold). And, yes, I do own the series(CIB).

Not a Nintendo find, but I got a Xbox 360 Elite 120G in box for $30 at a yard-sale. Included the system, power brick, component cable, wireless controller, 120g HDD, and a wireless network adapter.
Lady said her son told her there was an issue with the disc tray. I figured for $30 I would try and fix it. Hell, I could sell it broke, for more than $30.
I took it home, plugged it in and nothing was wrong with it! I played a few games, played a couple on the HDD, went online... Seriously NOTHING! Updated the software, and it works like new.
Still has 6 months of Xbox Live Gold on it.
6/25/11: Found at an estate sale: $10 (NFS)

Ive been seeing these pop up here and there quite a bit lately. What is the lunch box sell for?
Here is the last successful eBay auction (5.99 + 11.19 s/h):

EDIT: Got mine for $10.
Cool item. Don't have that one... but I do have these two. LIke Matt said not worth alot but they spruce up the gameroom for sure.
He probably got home and was like you sold my new one... Haha nice find though!!
I was thinking more like he lied to his Mom to get a PS3.
"Mom, my Xbox is broke! The tray won't open! Playstation is better, it doesn't even have a tray!"
New find! HUGE!!!!
EDIT: Maybe having issues showing all the pictures.. should be 8 for 6/27/11 find.
Nice big haul there, what was a random systems collector getting out of the game or something?
Guy said he was moving for a job and counldn't take it with him.
Almost shit myself when I got this one!
Btw, pretty much everything I have on eBay is a 'find'. I yard sale once or twice a week.
And I'm jealous of that huge pickup from before. I still haven't gotten myself that Gameboy box you got in the lot for some reason
ETA: Nice Mario blanket as well. My sister bought me that exact same one for my birthday and it's awesome! SO soft!
