I unexpectedly got this lot on tuesday from my local cash converters and YMCA before work. While in conversation with the woman at the YMCA she told me she had sold a MASSIVE box full of immaculate N64 games and a Super Scope just the day before! Came as a shock to see anything retro, as every time I've gone in there I've seen the same 2 PS1 games that have been sitting dormant for months.

Recieved this today, it's a t-shirt promoting the song "Manner Sind Schweine" by Die Artze as Lara was a special guest in the video :D

Image

Thanks again to hydr0x for going out of his way to get this for me. The seller wouldn't post to GB, but Jan saved the day :)

Also here's the video if anyone is interested. It's a really catchy song even if you don't know the words!

These are from last Sunday:

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

These strategy guides came to £2 for the lot, if only finds like this were more common. The Silent Hill guide alone would have made my day, but a full set of PS1 FF strategy guides too were a real bonus. The FF7 one is well used, but I'll keep it until I find a better cond. replacement.

These Xbox games were £1 each, except JSRF which a fellow collector brought to the boot sale for me and cost £5 - I was glad of it, haven't seen it in the wild since I started collecting XBOX games.

Not bad for the long box MCD games, still need to get those ones too!

It's been quite a while since I posted any finds, so here is my haul from the last few weeks.

First up, two large PS1 bundles from Cash Converters

Some nice titles in here, especially the likes of Lethal Enforcers. One bundle was £9.99, the other was £29.99 - combined, not too bad given some of the titles and the odd addition of three PS2 G-Con2s!

Here is some other random second hand stuff and charity shop stuff:

And last but not least, a certain treat for myself - a Chuck Rock 2 Mega Drive prototype/sample cartridge.

So, another package from our very own Cauterize arrived, once again a nice boost to the collection. NES/SNES stuff from a flea market though :)
