Ebay find? Is that possible anymore?
Well, all finds need a story, and all random appearances of money by me need a story, especially with Paul...
A little while back I decided that all money I saved would go towards some nice CIB games that I still needed, like Panic, Samson, Fire N Ice, etc. So I resold lots that I had been waiting to for awhile, and got a little stash going. After selling tons of games and a bunch of bundled systems I had a good amount of 350 bucks just sitting in my paypal, for once. And it didn't disappear either, until I spotted a BIN of sealed Double Dragon 1, 2, 3...of course no picture. Price of 255. Yikes. I knew it wasn't my priority and would empty most of my account, but I couldn't pass. 3 Weeks later and no games later, I got my refund. Around this time, I also missed out on those super deals that Langer had on games that I had been looking for.
So about 2-3 weeks ago, I was just sitting around, trying to add up how much I owed Battymo after all those polls, getting ready for some more Goldeneye, when I decided to one last time refresh the BIN's. Interestingly enough, there was a new listing of a CIB Caltron and some other games. Jone and I were talking about all the stuff this guy was listing, and then we both spotted it: the Samson, BIN: 150. Click, complete, pay, done. Thanks for not hitting it Jone. Goodnight.
Next morning are all the other listings, and he just keeps listing em. I missed a few but got enough to satisfy myself. I had listed some more resale lots a few days prior, and after that samson I still had enough in my account for a little more.
Ugh, I'm getting tired of this story. So I spent a little over 450 of my resale cash that I saved up on all these games after talking to the guy on the phone. Just arrived today, and I'm pretty happy overall. Most manuals have rental stickers on them, but the boxes for the important ones are in great condition (except for the little tear at the top of the Samson). The carts are mostly prestine. Yay. Oh, and I got distracted so I couldn't figure out how much I owed Batty. That's a shame.

Everything on the left column was bought only for resale. The DK and Popeye were variants luckily. Superman was bought because...it's superman. How could I not have had that by now?

Mmmm, minty boxes. Conditions:
8 9
7 8 (stupid tear)

Race America is a Bumble Bee to find.
Where'd you get all the money to buy the stuff you resold, Deniz?
Who's this Deniz person you speak of? Surely you're not referring to me...

$85, but I would take the P'radikus off your hands as partial payment. You can "work" off the rest.

I think Ill just work out the rest, no Pradikus. MRN did give me a condom for christmas, so I think I'll change my plans with Vince and just utilize it with you.
Great deal man, that guy had some nice stuff. I also bought a bunch of games from him (thanks to thenickross for linking to an auction of his in the good BIN thread).
Yeah, especially the Sword Master @ 30. I would've definitely picked that and a few others up if I wasn't out of town.
