My Finds UPDATED 1/17/2013

As I drove past the back of game stop today there it was.  Standing 7 feet tall it had my name all over it.  It was a Wii kios.  I thought to myself this can't go to the dump. So after work I went back and it was still there. Having only a mustang I made a bunch of calls fast and before I new it. The kios was mine  I am so happy to have this. It may not have anything in it but it is still cool. Does this count for the kios Icon?





Updates 1/14/2013

Ok just went dumpster diving for the  3rd time and my life and scored again

Got about 25 ps2 cases, 6 ps3 controlers 5 wirless,animal crossing wii speak,a action reply dsi,and a bunch more. Some if this stuff has cut wires just as gamestop was probaly destrying this stuff but I bet it can still be sold as parts of fix.  I am very happy.



Update 1/15/2013

So happy today.  The Final Fantasy games I ordered from square for $7.50 each with free shipping came in.  Now I got some sealed games   Did anyone else get there stuff they ordered? 



Update 1/17/2013

Ok I found another wii kiosk.  I called the Game Stop and decided to ask this time before I just took it and manager thought it was wired I wanted it. Anyways here it is. I am just going to take some parts off I need and probaly put it on Craigslist.

  • Nice find man!!
  • Is there suposed to be a cover for the back of this on the top?
  • Thanks you was not sure if I was spelling it right
  • That's in the same shape as the one I got. Yes there should be a back panel on the top. I'm amazed you found one this late
  • I'm going to bk to dig in the trash for more parts. Also a thanks to stlpn who told me about laws concerning trash.
  • You didn't happen to find the key did you
  • I have a key I can copy for you guys, if you need one. I found two--I wish the second one had the plastic piece that holds the console/controllers!
  • No key but a lock is the least of my worries. I went back and found the back of the kiosk and the bottom part of the wii tray Sorry for bad lighting. This is very heavy to keep moving around

  • nice find!
  • My brother got the display piece of Skyward Sword a long while back from Best Buy, but he turned it into a poster for one of his lame friends. Sucks since it looked so cool. Don't turn this into a lame poster!
  • I will not turn this into a poster. Was looking at the garbage collection dates to see if the garbage man comes I want to see if I may have missed a piece even though I went back. Anyone think this is a wise idea or to just stay away for awhile?
  • Bump found cool stuff

  • Bump another Kiosk saved from the garbage man
  • Wait, what's the story with FF games ordered from Square?
  • I love it Andy. Maybe this will keep you out of the thrift stores, fulfill the collection bug, and keep you from spending money.

    I think I am done for awhile now. I got a bunch of stuff planned this year and need to save for that.

    I did just pick up Super mario world yesturday for $5,mario golf and diddy kong racing today for $8-$7. Then traded them for super metroid.
