There used to be an outdoor swap meet about 10 min drive from my parents house and we'd go there at least few times a month in spring/summer. So many bargains to be had and I got some SNES games there too. It closed up in the early 00s, miss that spot!I have all of those
Copped them at outdoor swap meets when folks sold them for 50 cents to $1. This was before they all would think of checking their cell phones on eBay prices.
Nice! What games do you remember getting there? Yeah, those spots are awesome. It’s a shame some have closed down. The ones that are still open have vendors that constantly tell you to check ebay when you don’t fall for their asking price, it’s pretty bad now. You’re lucky if you find a game cartridge for under $5...probably a sports game
Agree. Can't even find a decent deal on the used items at facebook marketplace. Frigging disposables even has a value of $20. Just pure insanity.Nice! What games do you remember getting there?

It's been a long time but I remember getting Super Metroid, Castlevania 4 and Super Street Fighter for all well below used prices at places like Funcoland and other used games spots. I used to love browsing the large selection of games some sellers had though.Nice! What games do you remember getting there? Yeah, those spots are awesome. It’s a shame some have closed down.

Whoa, you got some steals for sure. Metroid and Castlevania are over $100 games each now in today’s market. Yeah, for me it was about the hunt and not knowing what you could come across.
Sucks we can’t go back to the prices of even just a few years ago. Everyone knows about retro video games
Wild that long after ad that RE1 dropped. Alpha 2. Tekken 2. Ridge Racer Revolution. Crash. I loved that Konami basketball series. I hated the NBA Live 96 and the first Sony basketball game.
