Hey there, everyone!
I'm here today to ask, whats the best deal or deals that you've ever gotten on a video game, system or accessory? I actually have a few stories myself that I felt like sharing, so I thought that I'd invite everyone else to share any fun or exciting stories that they might have.
My tales to astonish:
• I was at a flea market and found a copy of Final Fantasy VIII at a woman's stand. I had asked how much it was, to which she replied, "oh, 50?". I, a little surprised, resonded back, "50??!" and, no kidding, she replied, "is that too much?" Of course I said no, bough the game and left almost feeling a little guilty.
• Actually at the same flea market, although nearly a year later, I found an old lady who had a snes and a bunch of games in a box. I asked and she said it was $20. I excitedly told her to hold it for me and ran off to get money. I actually ended up putting the system out for sale at my own stand, sold it cheap for $25 and sold all the games online for about $100.
• During the amiibo craze that was Sept. '14 I made close to $1000 selling rare amiibo (hate me if you want). I recall seeing how much Marth and Wii fit trainer were selling for and litterally went to my closest wal-mart and bought the six or so that were just sitting on the shelf around a week into the craze. I also conveniently had decided to buy the villager amiibo on day one, just wanting him. I ended up selling him for $120.
Well, those are my best stories, please share yours below!
