It had a copy of splinter cell in it, a memory card, and an hdd. $10. I also got a copy of Diablo 2 with an unregistered CD key for a dollar from a different guy.

I think I'm becoming addicted to flea markets. Most of the game guys at them know what they have but their prices are still typically under market value and they're always willing to negotiate. The real fun part is looking for people who have obviously just bought out a storage container or the people that are all over the place. They'll just have a bunch of used stuff sprawled out on a series of tables and even they don't know what's in the pile. I run into lots of cheap 5th and 6th gen stuff, mostly mixed in with audio CDs and movie DVDs.

I thought journey escape had a fun intro and it reminded me of that shitty back to the future game. I looked it up and it's journey escaping from a concert so it's hilarious. I already have a copy of sneak n peek in my collection and agree it's dogshit. Enduro is now one of my favorite atari games. I think krull and cosmic ark were fun. Astroblast is really difficult.

I'm very happy with the quality of this collection though. The only dupe was warlords and I don't mind having more copies of warlords anyways.

This would have been legit good advice had I gotten it before I went. The Craigslist ad had "NO EARLY BIRDS OR CALLS" in it, so I didn't want to show up too early. I still showed up 10 minutes early because I didn't know exactly where it was and I didn't want to get lost. Walked up 5 minutes before posted start time and there was already a guy standing there holding a handful of snes carts. Pretty disappointing but from what I overheard, it seemed like the guy buying the games and the guy running the sale knew each other. I might not have stood a chance at all, no matter what I did or when I showed up. The rest of the stuff wasnt very good.

FYI I've been doing the yard sale and estate sale thing for a while and it never hurts to ask about early sales at garage sales. I had a guy open up a day early and I cleaned him completely out for a few hundred bucks and he gave me a good deal on a ton of stuff. The estate sales near me are run by different companies and each has their own policy. If you go to one and ask they'll let you know what their policies are and you can try asking ahead of time. Two of the companies that run sales near me don't advertise early sales or reservations but I am allowed to call in advance. I am not sure if this is something everyone can do or just regulars. One of them recently started doing it officially but they require prepayment over phone.
