Shop Smart Shop Thrift-Smart
What a colossal Thrift I have just been on, Man was I surprised Because I have been working full time I didn't Think there would be much about in town and east of the city I haven't had chance to get down there much but it was full of good scores lets take a look.
Picked up Space 3 disc edition, It was £2 in sells for £4 in cex, £1 cash £1.60 trade so not for resale but still coming in at whole two quid cheaper then standard retail price and its a cracking show got this to check the extras and rewatch the show because 40D is shocking.
Literally two days before I found Spider on PS1 for £1, My mate carl said to me "why haven't you found spider yet?" I told him I've been looking because its a game we both have fond memories of, So to see this today left me gob smacked! £8-£10 on ebay.
From the same shop, Sparks, Its an retro all-sorts kind of deal, I got Exhumed for £1, What a game this and hexen where great first person shooters with an twist to them mush of been the rage in the 90s you could bundle them in with all the doom clones but this has enough of its own thing going on to stand out.
And I pick up Metroid 2 for game boy had this a few times its strange the next major entry in the metroid series was on game boy but hey its not a bad game at all and £2 worthy of picking up.
Star ocean the last hope Strategy guide for £1.99 in cash generator £2 and under for any guide book is a fair cop, anything more then that is pushing it, I see there is a Grainger games stick on the front for £4.
This Reminds me of the Mega games carts on mega drive when you got 3 games in one, The last one I owned had Limbo,Trails,Splosion man, This one has outland,From dust, and beyond good & evil HD, For £2.50 what a steal £5 cash £6 Trade At CEX.
Random item goes to This Blockword game, This looks like the most boring piece of shit ever, The box photo how ever makes it look like the most awesome game ever, Strange the dad figure had his back to the camara? Like he is just about to lose it and smash the game across the room.
"why are you both so Happy NOILP isn't even a word!"
Resident evil outbreak, Fahrenheit, And GTA San andreas 99p each in cash converters all good for a bit of trade fodder, £1.40 trade for resi and £2 trade for GTA that is the lowest its gone for a while, Fahrenheit is for keeps.
Sword of the Samurai, I have heard this game is awesome and wanted to try it out, £1 in cash generator, Its worth about £10 on ebay so still good for resale too.
Since seeing Sled Storm a few weeks back on the thrift I have wanted it again so I scooped up that and Asteroids for £1.99 each in Banardos today I will pay £1.99 for ps1 if its in good shape £1 is more like it but depending on the title £1.99 is fine, pick up more crap when there priced at a £1.
Deception IV Blood ties, This Game is from a long ruining series called Deception on the PS1, To the left you can see the PS2 game Trapt, My girlfriend loves this game, Trapt includes a number of features that are also used in Deception an earlier game from Tecmo, So when I told her there was more trapping action to be had she was all over it, So out today I treated her and pick it up in Game. The first time I have seen a game be cheaper on PSN then in a shop, got to have a box with it, so hey.
And to wrap up I was playing beyond two souls this morning when the 3rd party pad I had didn't have six axis to play the game, The duel shock I have for the 60gb doesn't work with any other ps3 so I traded in for a ps3 pad and I had some Credit left over and Shenmue 2 was in CEX again, I have looked in there for over 5 years for that game and now its in there all the time of late crazy
