Couple common SNES games for $3.50 each, and 2 SNES controllers for $2 each. I searched for the console and/or more games but that was all they had.
That's what I usually do if I see common games and some controllers, I go straight to where the console would be. Although I did find a Mario Paint mouse along with the cleaning kit today.
Grabbed 5 original xbox games for $3.50 each. Jedi Knight Academy being one of them, worth $20+ alone and usually in high demand which makes it a pretty good find overall.
Also got a working (finally!) SNES last night. Aside from being dirty as hell, it's in really good shape. The controller port has yellowed, but that lemon SNES I got last week has good ports, so I might swap em. Came with Act Raiser 2 as well, not bad.
Just got Jetsons off Amazon for 45 shipped, plus I had a 10 amazon gift card for xmas, so put that to good use. There's a tiny rip on the label, but for 35, can't really complain.
Got this sucker in yesterday. What an upgrade from my other copy. It's just the box at the moment. Got a bunch of other stuff coming so I'll update my main FK thread when they all shown up but I just wanted to share this now.
For ~$1,500, you would think that putting it in a fucking box would be common sense.
You would think that, I do too, too bad I still get dopey ebayers who think it's wise to ship fragile cardboard boxes for games in bubble mailers, whether they're $10 CIB or $2,000 CIB, USE A GOD DAMN BOX!!! I WILL PAY THE EXTRA BUCK OR TWO FOR IT EVEN!

I always, always specifically ask the seller to ship in a box for this reason. I always offer to pay extra for shippingnifmthey ship it in a box. Most of the time they say don't worry abut it. I know I shouldn't have to do this but I also know that people are stupid and will ship very rare and expensive boxes in a bubble mailer if I don't.
I ended up buying a SNES system from a refurbisher I know.
It was like it had just been taken out of the box - except its missing the S/N and "Power Switch Must Be Off..." stickers. Pretty excited to have it hooked up with official cables

No fucking shit!
That's the reason I had to ask how much you got it for. I thought maybe you'd scored a cheap some how.
The competition for buying vintage games is pretty cut throat in my area, so I was excited to actually score.

44 SNES carts and MK Trilogy from NA member Retro Studios Project
3 SNES carts and that Mario Party 2 NFR from feebay, but for decent prices.
This currently puts me at over 50% completion for both SNES and NINTENDO SIXTY FOURRRRRRRRRRRR!

All 3 SNES DKC games in very good shape (couple little indents of the top of 2) for $50, not a bad find.

one of each color of each item
some members might look at them and hate them or look at them
as something they would not want or need
but they are official Nintendo Items
Then I blew my gains when I bought Phantasy Star 3 thinking it was the rare one for $20, only worth half that
