Title: Re: Woman in NC finds CIB Stadium Events at a Goodwill Post by: Fleach on April 16, 2013, 09:42:48 PM Wow... Just wow.
That last paragraph sums it perfectly. Complain all you want about never finding anything good at the thrifts, but you never know what's around the corner. Title: Re: Woman in NC finds CIB Stadium Events at a Goodwill Post by: A8scooter on April 16, 2013, 10:02:28 PM that is true that you never know what you will find next unless you look. I collect 8 bit atari stuff and if you look on ebay everything that is not atari basic seems to carry a heafty price. ROMOX games non gaming games, and fun titles even pacman can be listed at 15.00 +. I was on another gaming site and found a guy with a whole ton for what comes out to about 5.00 ea. Going to add alot of good games , hes happy with alot of my cash going to him and I get alot of good games i need with a few left overs for trade bait. But if i didnt plug on and hunt i would have missed it and someone else would have gotten it. Congrats to her for finding what she did .

Title: Re: Woman in NC finds CIB Stadium Events at a Goodwill Post by: KidA on April 17, 2013, 02:00:09 AM Is the price mentioned really the going rate for a loose copy? Frack, I remember when they were going for 400-500.
Title: Re: Woman in NC finds CIB Stadium Events at a Goodwill Post by: singlebanana on April 17, 2013, 08:06:14 AM Rich - you missed one! Heh, yeah Charlotte is a few hours away from me and I hardly go there looking for games. I've hit some thrifts around that area and have never had much luck. Good for her and I hope the money she gets for it helps her out.

Frack, I remember when they were going for 400-500. A boxed copy with a HUGE rip down the back and missing the manual just sold a couple days ago for $11,000+.
