Haven't priced it specifically, but that Chuck Wagon cart should get you over $25 by itself.

Okay, well over, then. I just remember that title as being fairly rare when I was looking into Atari games. It's not Air Raid rare, but…

1500? Games? That's a lot of games and a lot of space.
How big was the 🍕? Did you get lucky and the person behind the counter gave you a large slice, or did you choose a large slice?

I see what you mean about the Lego sets having a lot of features. That Visorak one especially, looks like it has a lot going on.

yeah, in jewel case though. Had to get a new shelf just for them pretty much lol. Slice was cut in 2 and each slice was decent. little low on pepperoni, lil thick on crust. cheese was awesome, overall it was decent. usually the best big slices are close to the ocean, though we had a chain called big slice here before. Not sure. $4.50 and it was breakfast, lunch, and pushed dinner back. I eat less in the warmer seasons lol.
Not that many boxed games. Trying to give ppl good deals, and got a repeat interested, and someone new today. Gave lotsa games there free as $5, maybe someone would buy but I need the money, and yesterday, was a bit lower, prob would have asked more for it today, but was in a giving mood yesterday lol

but I guess I'm one of the good guys. usually cater more to collectors, but only because there aren't that many gamers around here. Or they're into the new, or on retro console.
Resellers try, but I try to get a little fairer and do give real good prices usually. Ppl would pay more separate, and the shipping. But still feel like I'm fair and do it good.

actually what am I talking about. I take the lowest price, and round down. of ebay and take into account the toll of it. And usually there are higher prices. But some things, I mean $5 games, I can def get $5 for it per selling one by one, but that's usually because shipping is high cuz it's a bulky game. Either way, making some good deals for ppl today, as I get great deals in too, but put my time in finding them. Sometimes scrolling late at night cuz I'm bored, but not recently. gotta set parameters, but lots of different search titles. Sometimes it's what and how you search that makes you find something.

Thanks @Oduomega It’s the 1000 series
Be mindful of the replacement screen you get. Some of the replacement 1000 series screens aren't actually OLED.
Just make sure to replace it with an actual OLED

- Blood (with Plasma Pak and Cryptic Passage) - 10$ got this, but I think it's disc only. $16 shipped. I remember selling complete jewels for about $105 shipped. Thinking the cd only can fetch $55 or $60 total shipped? Unsure.
I said I'd send money next morning, he said, he'll include this: https://www.ebay.ca/... free with the jewel and ship. I see it sold for $15 CAD shipped from australia, so maybe the price on there now is a little inflated. if I didn't see the sold, I'd prob post at $40.
I realize I give lots of games at around $5, but as I'm checking some older games for local sales, I'm seeing the prices rose. Far Cry 1 small box, had 3, sold 1 in a bundle for $5 give or take, trying to get $10 for another one, if not, throw them up on ebay lol. The world keeps on pumping, you just gotta get into the rhythm and keep on, for some reason or another, I'm feeling like I need to take it easy - energize, feel what I want than get back into another round of putting yourself in the rotation. Sometimes the orbit or whole show just ain't that interesting, working on something, but it all seems like air unless it pays haha no idea

oh yeah, I missed out on Marathon 1 in box, would have been shipped, for $99, I offered $80 but didn't really lowball the others, and would have taken 4 more games. No cigar, don't check that often, and there are others quick on things too. Than again no price for it anywhere, see Marathon 2 in that weird shape boxed sell for $270. See marathon 2 and marathon infinity sold for way more, jewels only, and that's the 3rd installment. Mighta been a quick sale at prob a list of $400...either way, no point in dwelling thinking what would have been lol

Got a text from the thrift store with a couple NES games. When I got there I guess they only sent me a teaser. Got everything here for $160.

Did a little more thrifting. Got the Warhammer boxes for $1 each. Only a few (recent) figures were inside, but for a buck why not. Other thrift store I went to was half off, so I got everything else for $130. Top two items are sealed.

Sick NES lot there.
No garage sales this week due to Memorial Day. Next weekend is a massive one. Won't even be able to go to all the towns doing them so I have to pick and choose.

There were a few sales this weekend, but I didn't think to check until this morning. Likely going to sit these out.
Next week I have a flea market to go to. Last year was sort of a bust, but I'm willing to try again this year.

Some guy brought a box of kids DVDs and he said "five for a dollar". So I got five. He said he got tons of relatively new releases in storage and he'd bring them down next week, so we'll see. It's apparently all Walmart discards / clearance stuff.
I got the two latest Spider-Man movies (probably for reselling or trading), a Barbie set with some random discs that I wanted to look at, and two other discs for a lot of kids movies I'm setting up. He had Everything Everywhere, but on DVD, so I didn't bother with it. Hopefully he brings the Bluray version next week.
He also had the complete Bones and Dukes of Hazzard sets for five bucks each, sealed, but the discs sounded loose so I didn't bother (also they were so bulky they would've been noticed by customs on the way back...)
