Post every time you buy/trade something Part VII

My wife is watching lol - As I know the seller it wasn't as bad as you'd think, certainly better than the prices seen per unit on eBay! Plus as I am dealing with things at cost price I knew I wasn't buying the entire amount to keep them. The deal progressed as it was because I promised the seller I'd not make any profit on them ;-)

 

lol - yep Didn't!

no worries chap!

 

Picked up two of these at a local store, extra games not the console package, wireless pad, viva pinata and forza 2





being a bundle pack that comes with the console. Obviously sold the consoles and forgot the extras or returned the consoles to another store

£25...........bargain.......

Seeing if I can shift them for a small profit!!

It`s my age and all the excitement of fires ;-)

 

You mean for the seller? Bet he was glad to get 3 quid 50 for something he probably got for free. :lol:

I really need to update my bought list as I bought far too much stuff... >=<... :banghead:

 

;-)

Well cheaper than £40 in the stores, but I`ve heard it`s not great so £3.50 can`t complain

Mame arcade unit, did plan on converting one but put a cheaky low bid in on this one and it got accepted. Need to upgrade the Pc slightly to use it as Server but I have all the gear to do it. Now just got to tell my bro...

 

You know what I find funny about these cabinets is that they are always the old stand up type plus have tinny farty monitors in them. Fair enough, the stand up type cabinet is more dominant in the west but at least they could make more effort with the screen.

Yeh the screen is rather small but then this is one with a larger screen and scope to increase it.
The other style seem to be "Candy cabs" style which are tiny and too plasticy.

 

didnt know wheter to put this in here on in the unbelievable deals thread,

Picked this up off a mate today





P4 3.2ghz, 1gb Ram, 200gb HDD, Dvdrom and DVDwriter, Ati Radeon 1950gfx, wireless lan, integrated card reader, DVB tv card and a 17" TFT screen, XP home licence

Price : £FREE!!!!

All it needs is a format and fresh install of windows and its good to go, as at the moment it is riddled with virus's and spyware. He gave it me basiclly as hes just bought a new pc instead of getting this one sorted, i asked if he wanted to sell the old one and said i could have it for free! no arguments there! i know its not the most powerful of Desktop PC's around, but will more than be enough for my 9yr old to use

 

Final Fantasy X (Pal, Complete w/ Bonus Disc, PS2)
This is Football 2004 Demo (Pal, "Complete", PS2)

Euro Demo 60 (Pal, "Complete", Playstation)
Registered Users Demo (Pal, "Complete", Playstation)
This is Football 2 Demo (Pal, "Complete", Playstation)
Gold Finger cheating device for Playstation, Loose

 

Why not install Linux instead? Since it's your kid that will use it, you can have a safer computer, without having to worry about virus and spywares, and still have everything windows would do, but better.

Kids learn quickly, and using Linux for internet surfing, chatting and video and audio playback isn't difficult at all. Plus with Windows you will have to worry to have everything updated.

 

You most certainly have to worry about keeping Linux updated as well, or you're just asking to be rooted.

Quite a lot of nice items since Christmas. From top left we have the following for Dreamcast, Revive..., Guru Guru Onsen 3, De.Gi. Charat Fantasy, World Neverland 2 PLUS, Zombie Revenge, Super Speed Racing, Capcom Taisen Fan Disc, Zombie Revenge Sample, Capcom Vs SNK Sample, Justice Gakuen Sample and Capcom Vs SNK 2 DVD Promotion movie disc that I'll probably sell since I have no interest in collecting promotion videos.

For the Saturn I got Private Idol Vol.2, Private Idol Cosplay, Private Idol Race Queen F, Kurubushi Kyodai Gekijo Daiikkan Mahjong Hen (long name isn't it!), the more rare print of Standby Say-you, Virtual Mahjon (STV port), Kekkon, some creepy clown adventure thing, Virtua Fighter Kids JAVA TEA Edition (2nd copy this month), Solo Crisis Sample in a very cool slip folder, Langrisser IV Limited Edition, With You, Angelique Duet and Album Club.

Also got The Flinstones on the Mega Drive, this must be pretty rare since it's the first Japanese copy I've seen. Also got Assault Suit Valken (fantastic game) and Rushing Beat (shit game) for the Super Famicom and finally the very good Wangan Maximum Tune Midnight Run III OST.

Indeed Id say use Linux Mint 3.1 as you wont even need to mess with codecs ect.

 

I would put linux on there if not for that it is incompatable with most of the games he plays, and using wine is too much of a pain in the arse for a 9yr old to use

 

Hmm, bet you got those for the replay value. ;-) :lol:

It is quite uncommon but doesn't seem to go for much money when it does show up.

 

Bummer, still at least it looks nice and decent enough to play if cheap platformers are your thing.
