Damn, that's an impressive haul.

Might be interested in taking that black GBA off you though, if the system is as nice as the box and it has the battery cover.

Got to take a closer look at my GBA games, turns out of the copy of Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town I got was a counter fit, a good one at that.

Yeah i could have got a lot lot more BUT there is a lot of dealers at the one i go to and they snap everything up fast, so you have to be on top of your game to get any of the good stuff.

Here we go

£3, As the young lady was putting it into a bag for me i noticed the yellow cart in the Gameboy, i've been thinking to myself all day is it going to be Pokemon or Donkey kong :)
Image

Didn't think this was too bad at £15, Most of the games will be up for trade apart from Zelda on this one

Good day at the boots for myself! Here goes:

Image

Ape Escape box set - £8
Brand new inside despite some wear on the outer box. The control pad is still wired up and the game is minty fresh. 8-)


Image

Various PS1 games for between 50p and £1


Image

Game Boy Color bundle - £15


Image

Two sealed although battered (and now opened) N64 games from the same guy who sold me the Ape Escape set.


Image

Blue DS and Charger - £8
DS and GBA games - £1 each


Image

Two pre-production press samples (or prototype) PSP games from Travellers Tales. Surprisingly found at the boot sale for just £2 each. I don't own the originals though so I'm yet to find out if these are early demo versions.


Image
Image

Various other stuff


And last but not least, something I found on Saturday before the boot sales in the back of a Road Avenger case in a charity shop. Also, going on every one else's recommendations, I got some Goo Gone :)
