Not bad for a weekend. Went to my parents, they live about 4 hrs away. We stopped at a few Game Xchanges on the way up and one awesome little flea market. Here is roughly what we gave for each: PSone boxed, mint and completely complete: $20 Wario's Woods, near mint and complete: $10 Mega Man 6: $20 Game Boy Player x2: $10 apiece Top Gear 3000: $15 Resident Evil 2: $10(now I own every port of RE2!) The rest came from one neat little flea market: Wizardry V: $5 Crash Bandicoot: $6(been wanting a black label copy forever!) Metal Slug X: $5 Super Mario All Stars with manual in plastic case: $7(I already own the SNES cart with Mario World included, and all the NES versions, and the Wii edition but couldn't pass this up for that cheap!) Super Mario Kart with manual and plastic case: $5 Ranma 1/2 complete: $5 Magical Quest starring Mickey Mouse complete and mint: $5(already had it cart only, but I love finding boxed games for cheap!) Pilot Wings 64, mint and still had the original wrapper on it, just with the top slit open to open the game: $5 Not a bad haul for the weekend!

The thing was, we just got lucky on the flea market. Saw it a while back on a another trip to the parents, but it was closed. So we decided to stop by on Friday on the way up this time. There was a woman and a man out front, mowing and stuff, so we pull in she she says she's only open on Saturdays, but goes ahead and lets us in, since she's already there.
She had a lot of other neat stuff too, but only took cash and we didn't have enough cash on us, plus it was kinda in the middle of nowhere, so no nearby ATMs. But she did give us her card and said next time we come thru, give her a call ahead of time and she'll try to meet us up there.
She had some really nice looking boxed NES action sets that were practically mint for $50 each. I would love to add a boxed NES to my systems collection!

Wow, good job. Do you collect a lot of old systems and games just for the sake of it? Or do you resell them?

Very nice. Been looking for a PSOne complete myself. Also, RE2 for N64 is the only one I don't have. Shouldn't be too difficult to track down though. My RE collection is near complete.

Sometimes if we find an crazy good deal on something we already have, we'll use it for trading later. I've done that few times and gotten some really good stuff out of it. But really, I just like collecting. See the "show your collection" thread.

The N64 version was my first. and yeah, it's pretty cheap. I only collect the main games in the RE series. I have pretty much all of them, but I still need the Saturn version of RE1. I don't care about stuff like Dead Aim, Survivor, Outbreak, etc.

Poem stuff is stupidly priced if it's oler and really popular. But if you find something really rare, you'll get it for under $35. Unfortunately for you, the stores are mainly located in the mid south of US.

One of my favorite series. I like the DC versions better. They're smoother, less grainy.

Game Boy Player x2: $10 apiece
I remember when I sold my GBP when I got my Wii in 06 I got like 60-70 bucks for it.
