"Wii" (GameCube) Score

Saw an ad pop up on craigslist for a "Wii with games, mostly gamecube", and that's about all that was described, no pictures. Shot the guy a email and asked what games it had with it, and he said he didn't want to type out a list but there were 28 games, and he was wanting $50. Taking a chance, I shot over to his house and this is what I came up with:

Needless to say I was pretty happy with the purchase. I couldn't even fit it all in one picture, but not shown are 4 Wiimotes with charging bases, a handfull of other meh wii/gamecube games, and a complete Rockband set. I've already got someone lined up to buy the Rockband stuff for $45, so this all really cost me $5.

    Goddamn. Awesome score dude. It seems like the only way you can get a deal on Craigslist anymore is to wear out your browser refresh button, or be willing to ask just about everyone with a garage sale or video gaming add if they have stuff like this in an email.



    Great find, I'm jealous.

    Wavebirds are so nice to find in the wild. They make such a difference in the game play, and you basically got them free now!

    Thanks guys, I would have paid $ 50 just to snag the wavebirds. I've already got a few Wii's, and I'm thinking as soon as I figure out how I'll have a little game or contest on here and give it away with a couple rechargeable controlers and chucks, maybe a game or 2.

    You lucky guy!!!! Some people may not care what their stuff is worth and just let it go for next to nothing. Can't say no to that deal! I'd easily take a chance on 28 games for $50.

    Dude I'm more impressed that you're able to sell Rock Band stuff - that's a WAY bigger accomplishment than this find!

    Ha ha, sold it! Had quite a few responses to my ad for it too.

    Funny, the guy who sold it to you was probably happy that someone paid $50 for all this "junk".



    One man's junk...
