I don't really need it and I'd rather that someone else can take it off my hands who will use it or cherish it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Master Posted March 25, 2002 Share Posted March 25, 2002 I would bid on it but i'm afraid cuz of that war we had. I'm afraid I would get a box of cheese in the mail. [ 03-24-2002: Message edited by: Atari Master ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari Master Posted March 25, 2002 Share Posted March 25, 2002 I'll wait and see if anyone bids on it.And mabe i'll get it if it dosent go to high. So Funcoland sells other stuff besides NES and up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemmi Posted March 25, 2002 Share Posted March 25, 2002 Not really, but some are known to take somethings and place them out on the floor for selling like today, i actually found 3 NES games with manuals in them (this is a first in about 4 years) and i got a super mario bros 3 boxed with manual (i almost passed out on this one) and the guy at funcoland told me they are starting to save the NES manuals now cause alot of people are asking for them, and the guy told me they used to throw them out ALL THE TIME now im kicking myself for not dumpster diving in funcolands trash [ 03-24-2002: Message edited by: Lemmi ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Funcoland sells other stuff besides NES and up? Yes. Certain Funcolands seem to have wildly varying items. There's one that I frequent that has just the usual NES, SNES, Genesis, XBOX, etc games. Another one nearby carries the usual stuff, plus some common Saturn, Sega CD, and even some TG,Intellivision and Atari 2600 carts on occassion. Of course, finding the latter stuff is rare. It's all a matter of timing and luck to get some of the rarer stuff, but some locations do accept older stuff which they gladly sell for reasonable prices.

Babbages/PlanetX/Gamestop (all part of the same chain) are kind of similar. Why you ask? Well, I've seen used Sega Saturn SYSTEMS with 10 games for $60 at a local PlanetX. I've seen a top loader NES at a Babbages in a mall in Nashua NH last month. I've seen a Sega Master System (and some games) packaged together in a Gamestop across town. It all varies. I've noticed that some of these stores now have a "we need" white board at the front of the store where they mark which games they need and how much they'll pay for them. Every store seems to need NES systems for some reason (they usually retail for $54 with a controller and game). Sometimes they are in huge demand for Dragon Warrior III and IV for NES. It all depends on the location and what type of gaming clientele they get at that store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Master Posted March 25, 2002 Share Posted March 25, 2002 The babbages nearest to me dosent sell any NES or Sega games.They do sell some NES like 2 or 3 but thats it.The next lcosest one we called and they said they NES games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adrian M Posted March 28, 2002 Author Share Posted March 28, 2002 Very good! Keep those bids coming, fellow gamers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian M Posted April 8, 2002 Author Share Posted April 8, 2002 The A**HOLE that won my auction is being mysteriously silent when it comes to paying. If anyone was interested in this, I am looking for $30 plus about $10 shipping for this system. The system is in excellent shape both functionally and cosmetically. If there are no takers, then I will repost on ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I'll sell it as there was quite a bit of interest in the auction. I'd just like to make sure that the interested personal actually comes through at the conclusion of the transaction. Let me know what your friend says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
