Went to visit the wife's sister a few hours away this weekend and went to a huge flea market by their house. It was a little different than what I was used to, there were different building with many different people selling new and old things. Most of them looked like they were dealers of antiques. Saw a few electronic places but they all knew what they had and were overcharging for everything I picked up. There were a total of 3 dealers selling games inside all overpriced, and I was getting very disappointed. After we walked through all of the buildings I saw that there was a huge outdoor section in the back, and it all looked like local people selling things out of their garage. Exactly what I was looking for.

First place I stopped they had a huge assortment of video games from many different systems. When I asked how much, he said everything was $5 no more no less. After picking through many overpriced sports titles, I managed to pick up NES: Double Dragon II (CIB), and XEXYZ (CIB) N64: War Gods (CIB), and Dark Rift (CIB) PS1: Grand Theft Auto (CIB+Map), Command & Conquer (CB), and Illusion of Legaia (CIB).

Last place I also managed to pick up an assortment of games for $2 each also. PS2: Legend of Alon'Dar (CIB), GTA San Andreas (CIB) Xbox: Destroy all Humans (CIB), Star Wars Episode III (CIB), and Sims Bustin Out (CB) PS1: Grid Runner (CIB), 40 Winks (CIB), Dracula The Last Sanctuary (CIB), and Star Wars Rebel Assault II (CIB)
I also picked up a few 80's horror movies on vhs that were never re-released on dvd for $.50 a piece. My other passion besides video games are collecting and enjoying 80s horror.

Nice haul, only 1 loose game! I'm curious about this flea market you went to, it sounds almost exactly like one a little ways from me.

Its called Leesport, they have flea markets about once a month I think. They have craft shows and other activities other weekends. I thought I died and went to heaven when I found one guy selling about 50 NES games CIB, and 100s out of the box until I started seeing the prices.

Just as an FYI, Pump It Up came in a cardboard box with the pad. Nice stuff.
