Toploader and NES GBA SP score
Found them in two different pawn shops, some of the best finds i've had recently.
The toploader was $15, it only came with the power cable (which didn't work, but oh well!). The pawn shop owner usually knows what he has (he'll charge 20+ for any game with mario or zelda in the title), so I was really happy to pay $15 for it. too bad it wasn't the AV toploader
The GBA was $10, no charger, but I already have one, so no big deal
(they both work, too!)

scored a second toploader today! I'm down at school and I was feeling pretty bored, so I made the hour-long trip into town. While I was there I figured i'd look for some pawn shops. I found a decent one, with reasonable but high still high prices. Just as I was leaving, I saw a walmart bag with the unmistakeable toploader button layout showing through, so I asked to look at it. The owner wanted $40 for it (still a great deal) but I only had $25 cash on me, so I asked if I could talk him down on the price. It had a zapper and a controller (and the rf cable and a 3rd parter power supply), but he agreed to sell it for $25 without the zapper and controller, which I think is an amazing deal. The best part is that he told me he knew what it was worth online, but he didn't like to bother with it.
I wish I had my other toploader to compare to this one and take pictures, but I left it at home. I bought it right before I moved back down to school for the semester.
Are these things really that hard to find? 2 toploaders in a week? haha
They're quite less common compared to the toaster NES. These were released in 1995 when the n64 was real hot.
Most people who bought these bought them to replace a broken toaster or because they wanted to play the older games. They sold very very poorly in '95.
