    Here's one many times I have found Rock Band and Guitar Hero controllers but there's a catch there broken, you have to take a look at what you find before or your taking a chance

    Today i bought an Xbox for $20. It was out of box but it still has the protective plastic stuff stuck to it and the cables and original fat controller are still wrapped in the blue plastic bags. i doubt this thing has ever been used.
    i also got a couple games for it for $4 each. just to test it out. i don't even know if there were any good worthwhile games for this system. suggestions?

    I guess :D

    Things are usually grossly overpriced or under priced at these stores. We have a lot of resellers in my neighborhood who usually buy this stuff up blindly and leave very little for people like me. But every now and again i get lucky. Now i need to figure out what an Xbox is good for. ;-)

    Best deal I got was off craigslist, chipped Saturn ( mod chip installed) with extension cord for a Saturn pad, action replay 4mb cart, saturn light gun, and official dreamcast carrying bag for $30. Once and a great while I'll see good deals at a pawn shop or thrift store. Once saw diddy kong racing and goldeneye loose for $2 a piece at a thrift store, next day they were sold.

    Damn $7.50 for a dreamcast that's 50 cents less than what I payed for one and never pay more than $10 for one at a second hand store because it may not work
