    Also some of my higlights this summer include marios time machine CIB and mint in a box of of 25 other CIB games for $10.00 for the box. the rest of the games were decent ones. and fire n ice CIB for $9.00 mint. and many many cart only games.



    So ive been crazy lucky so far. still need the panesians, SE, and cheetamen though, and myramid. got every game besides those and about 60 others. :-)







  • I haven't had the greatest luck, but there a few small things that worked out nicely. Picked up things like Lemmings w/ manual, Mega Man 1,Contra, and other somewhat valuable carts for $2 a piece at a pawn shop. I picked up a stack of like 75 manuals for free from a GameStop.



    I just recently won this Ebay auction for $160. 48 games, lot of decent games like Maniac Mansion, Final Fantasy, Mega Man 5, Duck Tales, Family Feud, and much more.

    But the cream of the crop is that there is a Little Samson cart tucked in there too




    Parpunk: That has got to be the best trade I've ever seen!! I'm jealous!
  • thanks bro. yep compliments of good ole Gametz. funny thing was all those games i got from that guy, he did have Flintstone 2 with box but he traded it right before i made my huge deal with him, but luckily i knew who he traded it too.....so i tracked the kid down, and traded him a genny 3 mini system with some games for the F2 with box. so overall all of that were the best deals i have ever had.

  • Got a Trolls on Treasure Island prototype with at least two major differences between it and the commercial release for a loose cart Super Valis IV with a shit back label...and I got the SV IV cart for free
    Although this is hardly news to most of you, since I've mentioned it on a few forums now

    do you still have them? If you could send me the list I'll make a good offer if there's anything I need. thanks. I'm especially intrigued by the black box and konami mentions.

  • this was a pretty good find from a while back:

  • Damn, I'd say it is! Have any left? LOL, I couldn't afford what you'd want (or deserve) for them anyway.
  • Thanks. Yeah, I have most of them still. May sell some more but will keep some long term also.
