Fuck you guys ;-(

>>385797
ok

The advantage alone is like $20 so you did good I'd say

You should have jewed him down to $5.

I think you did alright

>>385797
Better than market value, so yeah, you did alright.

>>385797
Excitebike is great.
Never saw the appeal of the NES advantage though.

>>386326
turbo. nuff said.

I think you did good. Please don't try to jew down local places just because you can -- they deserve to stick around.

have you tested it all, OP?

>>385797
not bad at all. if you want to dig a little deeper look for the nes multi tap. its a blast playing super off road with 3 other people

>>386359
>jew down local places just because you can
Goodwill drives up prices for old games as much as anyone else and holds online auctions. Jew them as much as you want.
Salvation Army on the other hand...

If this was eBay then you did good. If this is the real world then I think you got close to what you paid for. Maybe you came out a little ahead, maybe a little behind, but you definitely weren't raped. My local Goodwill, for reference, was selling the Mario 1 cart alone for $8 last time I was there.

>>386435
crap typo: $18 is what I meant.

WHO THE HELL WAS SELLING ALL THAT DREAMCAST STUFF FOR UNDER $20???

>>386443
you can buy that shit for less on amazon brah

SML:2 ($2.99) and X-Files Laserdisc ($1.99) SEALED!

>Picture level: Shitty and blurred

fucking captcha refresh...

>look down at my advantage
>control stick snapped off
>nes controller port wont work anyways

f-fuck you OP

Okay /vr/, honest opinion.

Refurbished NES (lockout chip disabled), plus Mario 1-3, Zelda II gold case, Contra, and A Boy and His Blob. Is $45 a good deal?

>>386574
yes definitely

/vr/,I'm trying to sell a neon green GBC with Mario Land 2. Right now I have it listed on Kijiji but without a price. What would be fair to charge for it? The system and game both save/work

>>386574
Yup. Mario 2-3, Zelda II and Contra can be around $40ish for the lot alone.

Go buy it!

>>386574
Nah, Jew him down to 30

>>386613
Good gooooood.

>>386574
I can't even find a working NES for less than 80€ around here.

>>386574
Yeah not bad.

>>386669
>That's a sickeningly good deal. But this is copypasta. I saw it in a thread a few weeks ago.

>>386791
Yeah, I posted it there too. Should I take a new pic every time?

>>386803
Oh sorry, I thought you were claiming it was something you just scored. Never mind.

From what I've heard the duck hunt super mario combo is pretty rare. Sounds like bullshit to me since it was packaged with a lot of consoles but whatever.

>>386890
Yeah I think you mean the Mario 1 that is not packed with Duckhunt. There's also the somewhat less common one packed with some sport game in a 3-in-1. But I think all of them are pretty common.

Damn it. I went to about 6 different thrift stores today and all I found was a PS1 an Xbox and a bunch of PS2 and Xbox games.

>>386971
Sometimes you bite the bar, and well... Sometimes the bar bites you.

tfw audio on a laserdisc is better than DVD.

>>387002
>tfw audio on an lp is better than cd

>>386443
My sister bought a nearly new Dreamcast, with 2 controllers, for $20. They're really not all that expensive.

>>387009
>tfw retarded hipsters actually believe this

>>387017
I take it you've never actually listened to vinyl. *sigh* It sounds purer and has richer tones. It has depth as opposed to the digital bips and boops of the CD. There are hundreds of reasons why vinyl is superior to CDs and MP3s, but I guess you don't get to hear what actual music sounds like through those shitty earbuds you use. I truly feel sorry for your ears.

>>387010
>a nearly new Dreamcast, with 2 controllers, for $20
OK but that's a pretty damn good deal even forgetting about eBay jacking up the prices.

>>386326
better analog control than the NES max.

>>387017
hate to be that that guy but it honestly is. listening to an lp with a decent setup shits on anything you could get with a cd or mp3/lossless

>>387061
>>387159
Hearing the difference now isn't the reason to listen to Records. Records uses lossless pressing, while CD is 'lossy'. What this means is that for each year the CD sits on your shelf, it will lose roughly 12kbps, assuming you have a pristine retail copy - it's about 15kbps on a scratched used CD, but only a mini-vinyl, due to rotational velocidensity. You don't want to know how much worse it is on CD-ROM or other optical media.

I started collecting CDs in about 2001, and if I try to play any of the tracks I listened to back then, even the stuff I grabbed at retail, they just sound like crap. The bass is terrible, the midrange...well don't get me started. Some of those albums have degraded down to 32 or even 16kbps. Vinyl records from the same period still sound great, even if they weren't stored correctly, in a cool, dry place. Seriously, stick to Vinyl, you may not be able to hear the difference now, but in a year or two, you'll be glad you did.

i got all this at my flea market today for 35 bucks
WWF arcade game is fun as HELL!
tv was free from a bro and he left not too long ago, so no more 2 player tonight.

>>387639
final fantasy is worth more than 35 alone.

You did good anon.

I'm proud of you.

>>387519
Don't be stupid enough to fall for that shit.

>>388015
How stupid should I be?

>>387362
Has anyone ever noticed that, outside of /jp/, sageposts are usually shitposts?

>>385797
Anyone know what that dreamcast memory card -looking thing is? I'm a tad inebriated and have never seen anything like it, so I'm pretty curious.

>>388174

It's a ghetto aftermarket dream cast memory card without a screen

>>388191

Oh wait, other thing? It's a rumble pack isn't it?

>>388191
But...but it's so huge looking. I mean, does it do anything or is it just super ghetto? I just saw that PSX thread with that flashcart you can plug into the back which is why I'm curious.

>>388201
>>388208
Oooh, a rumble pack would make sense actually. Thanks for the explanation by the way, appreciate it.

>>388174
one that is proformance is the rumble pak, 3rd party and the other one is a non VMU memory card: meaning that it was no screen on it so you can't use it for certain games like RE 2 or 3 that display things on it.

That Dreamcast set alone is worth around £7, and I hear the Advantage is pretty expensive, you did good OP.

That'll do OP, that'll do.

Every time I see the NES advantage, I think of the scene in Ghostbusters 2 where they're making the statue of liberty walk.

>>385797
Good pickup with some great games. I think the two best stories from goodwill I have was the time I found an nes with all the cables, 4 controllers, and smb 1 for $25. I also found diablo 1, smb 3, excitebike, and gauntlet legends for like $3 for all of them. Another good story was just recently when I found a Japanese ps1 for $13 and a Japanese gba for $5 at goodwill

Can't find any vidya in the Goodwills here. None. I might try small town Goodwills instead.
