This here was all found here in Michigan at a new found flea market trade center....who would have thunk, I worked at the Credit Union on Friday...During my one moment of being able to check a local craigslist posting, I would come across a posting for a local flea market..This flea market was a 2 hour drive from where I live, but the decision was made...There was this cheesy post for laser discs 1$ Each...I got home Friday night, called up my laser disc buddy....we set out for this new flea market at 8 am sharp. Upon deciding to go...I hurried to gather up any trade bait I may have had. I stayed up til 2:30 Saturday morning and finally had my swag for trades....What would I bring?

I narrowed it down to some 300 regular xbox games....previously posted on a forum for sale or trades....Not too many takers..so I quickly yanked those earlier in the week....Either way upon arrival at this flea market...I was shocked to come across as pictured in this posting...Neo Geo MVS games...Metal Slug 1...2...and X.....

No freaking way...I asked if they wanted xbox games and they said they would look at them....sure enough we worked out a trade and 20$ (actually 60, but the contr was sold to my buddy for $30...) for the pictured items and a neo geo classic arcade controller not pictured....The PS1 lightspan collection even come with a lightspan carrying bag and a ps1 system complete...

This was a deal and a half considering Sam Show 2 is 150 plus along with the MVS Slugs..this is an amazing trade...


"The laserdisc add led me there, but when we got to the booth that suggested they sold Laser Disc movies for a buck....the Laser Discs were CED's not Laser Discs....either way my buddy picked up a Laser Disc Beatled Abbey Road or something like that...He was just as stoked as I was...."

This is a forum dedicated to the sale of "Everything else." Meaning all sales that are non-SNK related.

Sam Sho 2 is not a $150 game, and no one gives a shit about your dumbass find.

$150 for Samsho 2? You got riiiiiped, beeyatch!

I bought a NOS Samsho 2 for $40 about 2 years ago. You can probably find some NOS still, it's one of the most common Neo games ever produced.

Wow. Kinda related I found a Neo Geo Conversion cab on craigslist for 1,500 bucks. I think it's a steal of a deal, especially since, it's well, a super rare dynamo conversion with the highly desirable tekken, 4 button layout AND on top of that it came with the super rare torn label versions of world heroes, 3 count bout and art of fighting. Those carts alone are worth like a gazillion dollars!

Considering xbox games aren't worth shit....I'd say that was a pretty decent trade.

....but wrong section.

Exactly what I was thinking. I had to do a double take.
*reading...reading* 30 xbo...wait 300 xbox games.

And that's after narrowing it down?!
What is anyone doing with 300+ xbox games lying around? Wait, I don't really want to know.:oh_no:

Still, if you can get anything for a mountain of shit Xbox games, I suppose it's a plus.

The neo geo games were a bonus to me......hence I posted it in a neo geo forum.....yes they were some aes and some mvs...and not all that stuff came form the same vendor...I traded between two actual vendors that day...

Thanks Joe West for what was a good deal for both of us.....

Appreciate your comments but keep your shit words to your self nixt time....

Sam Sho 2 is not a $150 game, and no one gives a shit about your dumbass find.[/QUOTE]


This find was not all neo geo but "everything else"! The Neo Geo games were a bonus and you are just envious because you didnt have the swag to trade with this vendor anyways...so thanks for your comments...I will be sure to critisize you next time I see you post something....

Thanks again,

Are you selling anything from your 'find'? If not, why did you post this in the selling/buying/trading sub-forum? There are plenty of other places on the forums to 'show-off' your find.

Strike one for being an idiot.

Strike two for being a cunt about being an idiot.

Strike three for voluntary cuntish spelling.

You're out.

Like I said earlier:
- This is a for sale forum. If you're not selling anything, then GTFO.
- Your find sucks. No one gives a FUCK about common MVS/AES carts, or how many shitty XBox games you had to lug around to trade for them.

You're a duesche bag that came here to wave your e-dick around, and it blew up in your face. Eat shit dude.

This guy pulled the same shit on another forum claiming to have this and that. Over there you have to play nice. Here you get sodomized in front of a crowd.

I heart NG.
