Amazing Bargain Bin Finds

[Indecizion]

i found HOMM 2,3 and four full expansion packs for 10 bucks for all three in a bargain bin, made me REALLY happy

 

[Srassy]

Best would probably be 26 Sega Saturn games (including NiGHTS) for $50 NZ. And if you've ever been here then you'll know how worthless our currency is.

 

[ciancon]

Okami for ?2.99.

 

[BlindMessiah94]

I found The Secret of Mana for the snes on ebay.

I bid $30 on it not thinking I would get it (as it easily sells for 40+ cartridge alone).

I wound up winning, and to my surprise, because it wasn't in the item description, the thing was SEALED IN BOX WITH INSTRUCTION MANUAL.

That was epic win.

saints row 2 collectors edition brand new for 20 bucks
I know there are more but for the life of me I cant remember atm

 

[Omikron009]

Kane and Lynch + Mercenaries 2 for ten dollars wasn't bad. Provided, they aren't amazing games, they're still fun enough to justify five dollars each.

Mercenaries 2 is good enough to justify any price. God I love that game.

OT: I got KOTOR for 10 bucks.

When I got my PSP I was able to find a dirt cheap used copy of Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops.

Aside from that my biggest bargain bin cheer came earlier this year when I found the movie Dog Soldiers in the $5 DVD bin at Wall-mart.

 

[rated pg]

BlazBlue Calamity Trigger for 25 CDN$...maybe 3 months after it came out in North America? And it still hasn't price dropped from my recollection. It was not the collectors edition sadly...

Also the local EB had a sale with Mass Effect for $10 for 360...I had already played and beaten the PC version about 6 times but still, so worth it...

Went to my local GAME to pick up WoW and the two expansions had a look at the bargain bin before heading off to collect my games, saw Vanilla WoW and TBC Duct-Taped Together, not even broken out of the seal, for £5, And theyre normally £10 each (bar Wrath which is £20 so i bought them instead and ran so fast i ended up running the whole 2 miles home from the town just staring at the games drooling, (ofcourse thats exaggeration) but yeah, and to this day i still don't have wrath (mind you i bought them both a week ago and im only level 58 working towards 60 ;D

I bought Mass Effect in April of 2009 for $20.00. It was the special edition version that had Bring Down The Sky and the sound track on a second disc. I also bought The Animatrix for $5.00 dollars. It was the version that also had the sound track in it.

One of the best finds though was when I bought the entire Godfather Trilogy for only $12.00. Most other places were charging $60.00 for it. It was not used either, it was new.

 

[Eggsnham]

A copy of "Pulp Fiction" for $2. And Donnie Darko for the same price in another store.

 

[KP Shadow]

Not a bargain bin, but a yard sale. I found a Mk. II SNES (which I later saw for about $180) and three games for only a total of $3.75

 

[Sketchy]

I found XIII for $20 AUD a few years ago. I thought that was great, considering it was hard to find in the first place, and your average new game in Australia costs $80-110.

 

[Sacman]

I got a sega dreamcast plus 10 games for $3 at a yard sale...

 

[Ninja Tank]

i found a copy of persona 3 FES in perfect condition for about $6

 

[brunothepig]

Every single game on PS2. I only got it last christmas, so I just buy all the games secondhand for about $10. The most I've spent was $20, and that was for God Of War II, so totally worth it.

 

[SilkySkyKitten]

Picked up a Logitech Driving Force Pro steering wheel controller in perfect condition for $8 USD at a thrift store once.

Considering that same wheel goes for $60-$150 USD on places like Ebay and Amazon, it was quite the steal.

 

[Omegatronacles]

Not video game related, but I picked up complete copies of the board games Hero Quest and Space Crusade for $2 and $5 respectively.

Finding those made my day, week, month AND year.

is that the space quest rpg GW made with the couple of space marines? if so i am very healous i can never find it anywhere ¬_¬

OT: i got both KZ2 and infamous for 22 squids i was a rather happy murder dispensing bunny.

GW made 2 board games before the official launch of the 40K universe, Space Hulk and Space Crusade. Space Hulk was the first, which introduced Terminators and Genestealers. I have Space Crusade, which introduced the idea of different chapters.

They recently re-released a special edition of Space Hulk, which I was unable to afford at the time, which made me very sad. Not nearly as sad as I am at the prices that people on EBay are charging for it now though.

 

[RagnorakTres]

I'm pretty sure my copy of Shadow of the Colossus cost me about $3 out of the mom-and-pop shop. Used, but in great condition.
