Weekly Haul: December 6th - January 10th

[Anthony]

The Weekly Haul is your chance to discuss and brag about your purchases during the last week. What did you buy? Where did you get it and most importantly how much did you pay? Share the information with others so that they might benefit or to boast about your ever expanding library of video games.

Everyone must have gotten something over December, whether it was for Christmas or a part of the before or after Christmas sales. With all those bargains, both retail and online (damn you Steam!) we would love to see who has the longest list of games purchased over the last month!

Off an eBay seller called Nightko200.  I offered him US$35 posted for the 2 Phoenix Wrights plus a sealed Tokyo Game Show demo thing, which I sold on PALGN for $19.50.  They were all Japanese versions BTW, but Phoenix Wright 1 & 2 has an English option as they were designed to be import-friendly.  Plus they were all genuine and in really good condition.  So good deal IMO.  The TGS demo's lack of English doesn't concern me as I just sold it.  

You can borrow them off me if you want, as long as you lend me Kingdom Hearts 358.

I actually already own them, I was just curious as to how you got such a great price. I paid $30 for the first one, but got the second one at Dick Smith a while back for $7 in a clearance sale

Man I had a great score yesterday - for $4 I got:-

2 working wireless 360 controllers
GTAIV, Call of Duty 3, Gun, Juiced 2 for Xbox 360
GTA San Andreas & Crash Bandicoot Wrath of Cortex for Xbox
God of War, Final Fantasy X-2, Need for Speed Most Wanted, Black & Battlestar Gallactica for PS2
Xmen 2 dvd and a couple of other random dvds and cds
1 month Xbox live code

All of the above came from a box that was marked "faulty discs" at a local 2nd hand shop.  Asked the guy if I could have it for a couple of dollars and he gave it to me for $4.  All of the games are very badly scratched and half of them are missing manuals etc.  But i've tested them and they seem to work (there was acutally a heap more xbox & ps2 games that i didn't list but they didn't work when i tested them).  I think I got my money's worth

Also this week I got:-

Operation Flashpoint 2, Call of Juarez 2, Far Cry 2, Brothers in Arms Hells Highway, Red Alert 3 for 360 for $10 each from another local 2nd hand store.
