ps2 with 20 games for 10 bucks

oh and one time I found something Konami related which was a bag full of yugioh cards for a dollar. I am dazzled because there were cards that were worth 50 dollars and up in the bag. I ended up selling them on ebay.  ;D

I was at a flea market and saw a R.O.B. with all the Gyromite parts.  I didn't see it until I was on my back to my car, though, so I had already blown all my cash.  I told my mom about it later when I got home and, come to find out, the guy running the table was one of her co-workers.  He was just going to throw out R.O.B. since no one bought him, so he gave him to me for free!

Easily my best flea market find ever!

Poor R.O.B, he just wanted to be your friend and now you complain about him being in the SSBB roster.

LOL!  :D

Yeah, I don't find much in yard sales anymore. Unfortunately, it just seems that there are not much classic gamers here anymore. :(

I found a complete in box intelevision golf game for $5. :) It was sweet!

Xbox that sort of works, $5 :D

MaxXimus

What do you mean by sort of works? Powers on but doesnt read anything? Randomly restarts? Tray is broken?
