great find or not?

Sunday I went to the flea market for the third time since I discovered it two months ago. And this time there was someone different there with a bunch of random old stuff from every part of classic gaming and some newer things like PS2 not Xbox. So I picked up Darkcloud, Waverace 64, Legend of Zelda: L inks awakening(the orignal) and my second orignal gameboy since it came with everything, papers included, just missing the cardboard box was all. It was only $30 for all that.Then before I left I had a small convome: ''So I noticed you had a SNES Scope 6 game.Have you by any chance seen a real SNES scope?''
guy: ''Yep I own one right now. But its back at home''
me: ''O.O could I buy it off you?''
guy: ''sure it would be like $20''
me: ''are you effing with me?''
guy: ''uhh no...''
me: ''So you have a ctual working SNES scope with everything''
guy: ''yep manuals are even included''So that is how it went and I got his contact information. Called him upyesterday and picked the sucker up for $30 since I had to add $10 in for the SNES scope 6 game.And it actually works like a charm and better then most light guns I have ever owned in my life. So was this a great find or not and was it a decent deal?great find or not?
it would have been even better if nintendo had made more than like 3 games for the super scope. good buy for a collector though. i used to have a superscope and the couple games they had for it were real fun. great find or not?
$30 seems a bit steep, especially since it goes for much less on eBay. I'm a fan of digging up old hardware, though, so congrats. Remember that if you truly enjoy a purchase, the amount you paid isn't really relevant.
IMO, awesome find is an understatement. Honestly, although you might have gotten a better price online, buying old stuff like that in person is better because 1) you get to see firsthand the condition it's in, and 2) you don't have to pay shipping, which in the end will save you money. So yeah, definitely a great find!
It's an OKAY deal for 30$..but some of that stuff isn't worth it, BUT, for someone who enjoys find old games, hardware, etc..I think it was a good idea for you to get it before it's gone. :lol:
well found out later that the guy used to have a store where he had all this old stuff. But being pushed out by bigger more popular stores. He didn't really have a chance so most of his stuff is leftovers. And he is fine with me coming over for like half a hour this weekend to dig through boxes and make deals with him on stuff that I like or intrested in getting. Will be even more amazed if I find a power glove this time xP
