Thrifty tatics





Some great deal on games this time out, Over the course of a few weeks I found all this stuff, Been a bit dry in the wild most of what I found was software, And Tell tale signs are starts to show that the games you can make an easy profit on are switching from PS2 to PS3 slowly as the Next Gen is ushered in.

99p each for NFS mostwanted back edition and NFS carbon collectors edition, Really tidy condition, Got these from PDSA I bundle the two games together and got £6 plus postage, any thing standard game plus is a safe bet collectors editions bonus disc etc.

Ghost busters 49p from cash generator, This verion of the game is  different to the PS3/360 versions, It is a port of the Wii version just without the crappy Wii remote control scheme, bonus.

 
 

£3 gets me a tidy cube pad and a Nintendo AV cable that works with SNES/N64/CUBE, Got that because my boss ask me for one to get his N64 on, and cube pads are still £4 cash £7 trade in cex, keeping this one to use on my wii because 3rd party Gamecube pads are always real nasty looking and uncomfortable. 

Red dead revolver for Xbox for 99p, It was in really good con and it works on 360 so why not any of the xbox games that have backwards compatibility going for them are a good shout.

Had a bit of a haggle in Cash converters, I like it when the staff ask you how much you would pay for something, there willing to let you strike a deal with them, Anyways £13 for these 4 games getting Dragon warrior monsters in there its a OK deal.
 
 

Warhammer dawn of war and winter assault expansion for £1.99, A Strong franchise a nice looking box set in good con this ticked all the boxes found in dove house.



In a different Dove house, All I saw was the Capcom logo poking out from underneath some ps2 sports game, For a moment I though I mite have my hand on a megaman or breath of fire, But hey 99p for Resident evil 3 I buy paid that any day of the week.


Moonwalker for IBM p.c, I saw this last year down newland ave, But I passed up on it, Since last year my knowledge of old P.C stuffs come a long way so seeing it again for 99p I pick it up.




Nothing really random or strange out there this time so here is some random building on my route to holderness road.


And It was well worth going down that ended of town to, Had loads of new stuff about, Rafa Nadal tennis for 99p, Really this is a bit of a turkey I check it and its only sell it in CEX for £2, But when you see a boxed DS for a quid the thinking it its bound to be worth more the that.

Raging blades for £1, This is bordering on the uncommon almost rare its worth about £8 Its one of them games where people Think it worth miles more then it is, like 7 blades.

 
All 3 broken Sword games on a modern DVD ROM that will work on windows 7 with no hassle, for £1.99 That's a no brainier.
Command and conquer Renegade for 99p, My mates just started collecting all the command and conquer games so I am going to donate this to his collection.
 
Lego batman on windows for £1.99, The barnardos this was in had lego indiana jones on P.C as well as this one but it was really beat up and this one was the best out of the two even then this one had a few marks on the disc the other one was a coaster for sure.
A Nice complete and tidy copy of GTA san andreas for 99p came with the map too, Thes £2 cash and £3 trade at cex still going for this but I slapped this one on ebay to see if it can get a bit more.
Cursed mountain on Wii for £1.99, You don't really see many Original horror games on wii so when you see one this cheap I ended up picking it up out of curiosity save me the trouble of burning a ISO.
Tak 2 99p its a save bet with game cube games if there not sports titles then its a winner with them all working on wii and if there as cheap as 99p then that's awesome.




Lollipop Chainsaw for £2.99 in cash Convertors, Cex gives cash of £5 and trade £7 they sell it for £10 That's pretty good going for a game that's still relatively new.





 
It is a really good time to be looking at PS3 and 360 games, Coming to the end of the consoles Lifespan, Once Xbox one and PS4 comes out, This is when the games for the older systems are cheaper and the games that are set to be rare are still available to buy from retail shops, PS3 and 360 will still be supported for years yet but all the sort after RPGs and the likes will slowly become more hard to find drive up the price so its a good idea to pick them up now while you still can.


I used some store credit I drummed up at CEX to get Ni No kuni and Agarest Generations of war zero,White knight Chronicles 2 was in cash converters for £3.99! £7 cash and £10 trade, Cex sell it for £15 at the moment, and eBay wants at least £20, These are the types of games that are going to end up skyrocketing in price and are worth stockpiling Plus it Gives me chance to play them as they grow in value.
