I think am Thrifting japanese

Taking the full grand tour this time out doing the whole city in one day, And the first pick up is Final fantasy Advert children on DVD for £1 from Red cross, Not a bad find and £1 its the right price.

This next pick up blows my mind a little, I was of the thinking that most PS4 games get priced up somewhere around the £20 mark in most cash con/gen/express shops, But here we have Infamous first light for £8? CEX sells this for £18 they give cash of £8, This maybe be the standard for shops not in the city centre, A lot of them only charging what CEX will give you cash for it, even so I can't believe I got a thrifty bargain on a PS4 game only a year into the current gen.

Would of left this one where it lay in the Age concern I found it, £1 its OK for sonic DX not real resale in this, Two reasons I picked it up, Just got a newer laptop and wanted to try it on that and it was sealed up brand new.

The Monster club on DVD for £1 in dove house, I have half a clue when it comes to DVD resale my knowledge could be better but somethings I seen things I know are worth more then the asking price this DVD goes for £5-8 on eBay.

FFX/FF X2 HD for £6 that's a steal, CEX sell it for £25, Cash £12 Trade £16, And dynasty warriors 7 for £4, CEX sells for £10 Cash 5 Trade 6, Think these will end up on eBay.  Final fantasy X still making me money tell this day.

Speaking of games that have propped me up over the years, Crash bandicoot wrath of cortex, Woohoo! Is there any of these left, They most of sold a shit ton of these back in the day, This one chilling in dove house for £1. Still Cash £2 Trade £3.

Well alright some Retro crash, Crash bandicoot 2 for £1, This was in a standard Jewel case but all the covers and book where inside so I can restore this back to glory, will put this back in a real ps1 box and ebay it, Already have this so bonus.

Ten years looking for this pissing game and I found it twice in one year? Spider on PS1 having found it earlier in the year to see it in the wild again WTF? £1 in children's hospice charity shop.

Bunch of OK games for 49p each, Crash bandicoot already covering the cost and the second copy I found that day, God of war, Gran turismo 4, metal slug 3, All the sort of stuff you would leave behind at £1.99, Think about at 99p and why not at 49P.
Tourist trophy for £1.99 and Battlefront 2 for £1.99, I was glad I found tourist trophy, I had seen a copy earlier on in the thrift but it was all beat up, Its gran tursimo with bikes and one I wanted to play, so glad this popped up again.
 
The book was missing from battlefront 2 and missing the book is barely worth picking up on PS2, I remembers I had one a spare book from a copy that had two in the box, So I was looking for it for ages then I remember I had jammed in under NHL 06.

Sports Game? really? Well yes 1. Its ISS and 2. Boxed N64 game is a box N64 not matter what game it is, Hull and cardboard boxes don't mix so for 50p for anything complete with the cardboard makes me happy.

That's entertainment order turned up, Bards tale, FableTLC,Resi outbreak, Tekken 5 and project zero 2 all £1.99 each.

Still on the that's entertainment order I noticed this, A J-NTSC copy of Silent hill 2 for £1.99, Totally worth the price just on cool factor alone, Buying Japanese games feels like dipping my toes in to a massive pond of the unknown, I have the odd Japanese megadrive

game but never felt like leaving the home comforts of just sticking to collecting/selling PAL games, The alternative art work is quite appealing and having nothing to play Japanese games on makes my mind wonder to the idea of Owning a PSX no not that one.


This thing, Its a PS2 with a hard drive and the first Sony product to use the XMB bar like the ps3 and psp, If Japanese PS1/PS2 game where your bag this would be the best way to do it, Pricey between £100-£250 depending on con and shipping.

Another console I wouldn't mind playing some import games on is the Saturn this is a lot easier to accomplish this feet. 
All you need is a action replay cart and a Japanese game and your away, Incidentally I ended up dusting of my Saturn the other day I was having a knock about on NHL all-star hockey when I twigged this looked a lot like the game Jason lee's character Broadie is playing in mallrats, A quick google later and indeed this is the featured game in that film, Dismissing this game as Another run of the mill sports game upon first glace I never looked it up on ebay. 
When I checked it seemed to be going for a premium price compared with other sported titles about the £10 mark, I don't know if this is because of the lose movie tie in but I bet its a factor to why people want this particular game, I like it games I own seemly becoming cooler over time as they sit in my collection.

Wrapping this thrift up with my obligatory lord of the rings tie in for this time of year with Shadow of mordor I traded in at CEX for the TIN edition was the same price so I got that one and all the DLC was unused in the box who is buying a game new and not using the free DLC codes? Tell the next time we venture forward on the never ending search for video games and tat, Farewell.
