Hands down, rarest thing I've come across out there in the wide wide world was
my big TurboGrafx-16 find.
TG16, TurboBooster, TurboTap, 3 controllers, TurboExpress w/ TV tuner, and 9 games... for $10.
Of course, if we're talking single items, reducing that to just the TurboExpress or something still makes it my rarest find.
Of course... Rub it in my face.
You sir are indeed very lucky.

I would be too, if I had that kind of luck.
That is called luck, isn't it?

I found a complete in the box Earthbound with 2 sealed n64 games and 3 sealed primal rage for sega genesis games and a bunch of other randoms. The box of games was only 10$ and the best find I have found in a while.
A few weeks later I bought a sega genesis for 10$ and it came with a complete toe jam and earl and 10 or 15 other games. I had a good month

And that ladies and gentlemen is why i love garage sales.....
Best find of mine-My Sears Video Arcade (Atari 2600) found it in a box next to somebodies trash in my grandparents neighborhood years ago- came with the system,2 joysticks,1 paddle controller (2 pads one hook up),1 Racing Controller (same as the paddle controller, and one weird joystick/twist stick/button combo controller thingy, and 20+games. Free and it worked first try, worked perfect after a good cleaning

A few years ago, I found Shining Force CD at a Book & Music Exchange. My first thoughts were "hoo boy, this is going to be expensive". I was preparing for sticker shock when I flipped it over, but I saw 4.95. I could barely contain my happiness as I took this up to the counter, but I expected them to pull something, like "no, this is actually $74.95. the sticker is just really old. Look, here's the 7." or something like that.
But it was honoured, and I walked out of Book & Music Exchange with a $5 Shining Force CD, complete - in very good condition, even with that little foam block that secures the disc.
Being without a Sega CD, I had to test it on my computer, and it worked great. A week later, I sent it off as part of a trade for Panzer Dragoon Saga. Today, this gentleman is my fiancé. Funny how things work out. ^_^
Shining Force CD - $5
Priority Mail Shipping to California - another $5
having Shining Force CD come back attached to a wonderful guy - priceless
