    It's more like very slow customs clearance than the post itself... at least lately. But yeah, any sort of airmail arriving in less than 30 days is pratically a miracle. At least it wasn't taxed. :)

    Recent flea Market pickup. The Atari Jr and OEM controllers came from a box that was trashed but I swear everything inside was brand new. Hadn't seen one of these Atari book cart holders before, so happy to get it included. So I got all this and a two NES carts for $50 which I thought was pretty good. IMG_6414.JPG

    It's been a good few weeks for gaming buys. A nice mix of modern and retro plus something from China.

    Good Month for Xbox! Fist a Canadian buddy from IG hooked me up with this nice crystal version and a couple of controllers for a great price and then my Mrs. got me the Mountain dew version for my B-Day. Here's the kicker, the vendor only stated to her the xbox had "cables included" so it shows up and the cables were actually monster component cables. So what a nice little bonus b-day gift those were.

    I just ordered a copy of Gunbird 2, and got a PVM locally off Craigslist for a decent price.

    Black Friday stuff.

    P_20171207_104816ab.jpg
    $25 for Wolfenstein II - Surprised it was heavily discounted so fast, specially around here. Any ideas?
    $9 for COD Infinite Warfare - Got it mostly because of the single player space sections.
    $10 for Song of the Deep - Wasn't this supposed to be an US GameStop exclusive? Well, it got a brazilian release. One less game i need to import.

    Sadly i couldn't get Titanfall for $12. Still want to get it before EA kills it.

    Went to the SacGamingExpo yesterday and was able to snag my top 3 most sought after games within my first 10 minutes. I about fainted..lol. Not incredible prices of course, but I was able to bargain on everything to well below the VGPC prices, so I'm happy. Ive looked for a few of these titles for years and haven't seen in the wild before so it was nice to grab them finally.

    Burning Rangers has been my #1 most wanted since I started collecting. As a firefighter, I've been trying to collect all the firefighter related console games and now I have every North American game and once I get "the fireman" for famicom, i'll have every game worldwide. (it's not a long list).

    Theres been 2 xbox one reviewer discs on ebay (forza 5 and ryse) for a nice price. My brother got the forza 5 for £24. It plays fine on a retail xbox one and is different from the retail build.

    Bought some nice games and a lovely Jamma Arcade board ( Athena from SNK ) with extras. Was looking for the Famicom Version and cant resist for the much better arcade.
    @Yakumo Maybe another title for Battle of the Ports?

    I had this arrive today and what a thing of beauty it is.



    I don’t know much about these but keen to find out if there is anything on the sidecar etc.

    Anyone want to point me in the direction of an idiots guide?

    Got all this for $20+shipping from ebay. It's an old Mega Drive clone from Taiwan called HK-986 and came with some old pirate carts.
