jmjustin6 Posted March 30, 2018 Report Share Posted March 30, 2018 Those Coleco arcades are one of those things that I've never found for a reasonable price. Yea they hardly come up in my area, but it seems like when yhey do they are really cheap and gone in minutes. I have a pacman i got for $20 and i saw it said "posted 2 minutes ago" recently there was a donkey kong posted in my area for $15 it said "posted 15 minutes ago" i called and it was gone. This is why im looking all over. Ive had luck in the past with people shipping things to me from letgo across the country. Thats how i got my boxed Excalibur mini arcades Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmjustin6 Posted April 30, 2018 Report Share Posted April 30, 2018 I think i did pretty good this morning. I found this yesterday morning on Craigslist. Guy didnt respond all day. I guessed that it was gone and i was too late. He messages me this morning and says he still has it and he is available right now. I said sure and here we are the gameboy works perfectly and all that is missing are the original batteries. He even threw in a game for free. I got all this for $50 LeeJ07 and chas10e 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmjustin6 Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 (edited) Just picked this beauty up for a great price. Given that im in ATL ive got a friend that works in tv and i had him look at this thing and he said no doubt this thing was probably hanging in the Turner Broadcast studios. Somehow im gonna try to prove this with paperwork (not sure how to do that) but man im stoked!

jmjustin6 Posted December 5, 2018 Report Share Posted December 5, 2018 Didnt know where to post this but anyway. Last week a friend of the family called me up and said he found his old atari games and wanted to know if I wanted to buy them. Of course I said yes. I went over there today and here they all are. He is a big matchbox collector so he was happy to unload these games onto me. We spent the day talking about each others collections and we are in 2 different worlds haha RickR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmjustin6 Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 Todays letgo find. Guy had it listed with 4 common games for $120. I asked how much for just the nes. He said $70. He mentioned it takes AV cables too. I met him as fast as I could. Now all I gotta do is fix this crack in it RickR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted February 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 Great deal on that top loader. To fix that crack, I'd go with the most mild fix you can. Take the top off. Add some Elmer's glue and push it back up from the bottom. Then add a piece of duct tape to the bottom. jmjustin6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjustin6 Posted February 9, 2019 Report Share Posted February 9, 2019 Yea thats what I was thinking was just glue and push it back up and with the duct tape I wouldn't even see it with it being inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 Very cool. This is the model NES that I own. I prefer this design. Cool that it comes with A/V outputs! Quote 🖖 Going to the final frontier, gaming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjustin6 Posted March 7, 2019 Report Share Posted March 7, 2019 Found this one a few days ago on Facebook marketplace. I'm in ATL GA and this seller is in sweetwater TN. After talking the guy said he didnt really want to ship but if I wanted he would try. I said no I've seen too many horror stories with neon so I decided to drive up there. So was a total of 7 hours there and back and a couple game shops in between. Now it's home and safe. Very happy to have this thing!

jmjustin6 Posted May 22, 2019 Report Share Posted May 22, 2019 Ok so I was helping a friend clean up his house because he has to be out by the end of the month. While we were cleaning I saw a box that said commodore 64 on it. I grabbed it and sadly no computer but there were disks in there. I dont have a 64 I have a vic 20 so these might be up for grabs (not sure yet) Also in the box was an Action Max. I've only ever heard of these never seen or used one. The game is a VHS tape! Cant wait to try this out. Also there were 2 pokemon snap blockbuster cards in there. And lastly there is some big box computer stuff bot even sure what they are I havent looked at them yet.

I was at the 1982 World's Fair! In 1982 that is. The Sunsphere was not 100% completed but enough that people could go inside and visit it. I was taken their for my birthday when I was a kid. Loved it! The inside of that Sunsphere was something to behold. There really wasn't anything separating you from that golden glass. It was then I realized how much I don't like heights if I don't have any form of restraints. I think I got K-Tel's Blast Off on cassette for my birthday gift while there also. Good times! Haven't been a vacation since...at least not on the scale of traveling out of state. jmjustin6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmjustin6 Posted June 30, 2019 Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 Todays offerup find is this awesome xbox kiosk. Guy wanted $300 talked him down to $100. Missing a few things but it's not in bad shape. Gotta get a TV that fits perfectly in here. Also I am having trouble finding the bulbs for the top light fixture. Apparently it's an older style compact florescent that nobody carries anymore. Also came with the original xbox(from what the guy says it's the original one) but it has definitely seen better days. Gonna have to open it up and clean it. Anyone know how to tell if it's a demo xbox? Anyway super excited to get it all set up. And put in the game room.
