This first one isn't exactly a 'find' but I finally got shelving set up to display my collection.  After a few trips to the Home Depot, and some setting up, I have an entire wall devoted to it.  I am currently removing it from the boxes it was in, and putting it up in alphabetical order.  As you can see in the picture, I am only have 2/10 boxes set up thus far.

...


Just got a copy of Beggar Prince in the mail today.  This game is SWEET.  If you've been considering picking it up but haven't yet I definitely recommend doing so soon before the 2nd and final print run is sold out.

...


In the past month I've gotten N64 Not For Resale demos (store kiosk copies) of Donkey Kong 64, Pokemon Stadium 2, Banjo Kazooie, Banjo Tooie, Diddy Kong Racing, and Turok 2.  I've also managed to find Mario Party 2, Mario Party 3, Zelda OoT, and Zelda MM which I am awaiting to recieve in the mail.  I paid a roughly $20 for each of these demos.

Boxed Snow Brothers (NES)

Complete & Perfect Mint copy of Jack Bros (Virtual Boy).  I paid a little more than I normally would for this game because of the great condition that it is in.

The shelving looks nice...how much did everything cost and how long did you make each row?  Also, how many rows are there?  It looks like the true number may have been cut off by the camera

There are 9 rows of shelving, going all the way across the wall, starting 2 feet above the floor to the ceiling.  Everything cost me about $125ish all together.  It only took a few hours to put up the shelves.  Make sure you screw them into the wall studs if you're considering doing the same thing.

It looks very nice...hard to tell the overall effect without seeing the rest of the room but I'm sure it looks great regardless.  You should try investing in either some common bookends or possibly try to find somewhere that makes custom ones perhaps?  The crooked nes boxes make it look a little sloppy.

I purposely left the boxes crooked because when I eventually track down the remaining boxes I need, they will straighten all out.  Speaking of boxes, my recent eBay grabs.  Certainly not killer deals, but I'm trying to track down some of the harder to find boxes that I don't have:

120073176490 130 Boxed Games, 113 of which are CIB $685 shipped ($5.27 per game)
200065687421 Might & Magic CIB $16.51 shipped
150078401881 Uncharted Waters CIB $27 shipped
290066811175 Bonk's Adventure Empty Box $22 shipped
330074797224 Mario's Time Machine CIB (seems to be a minty copy) $70 shipped
250071069436 Ninja Gaiden 3 Ancient Ship Of Doom W/ Box $25 shipped

Does that Uncharted Waters have the map?  Pretty obvious the Might & Magic doesn't, but still decent prices Smiley

As far as I know the Uncharted Waters does not come with the map, but judging by the pictureless description and vague mentioning of box/instructions I wouldn't be surprised if it arrived with the map.  Here's hoping.........

Finds since my last post:
280068153780 65 Empty Boxes - $108 shipped
320069739446 6 Boxed Games, 4 Empty Boxes - $28 shipped

All duplicate boxes will go up for trade soon along with the duplicate manuals I have.  If you couldn't already tell I'm trying to track down the rest of the boxes I need.

I would like first crack at your dup boxes if I can get it.  I still have several for trade also, or I am game to buy them for sure if you have any I need.  Good pickup.

We will see.........   FYI I'll be trading them, not selling.

I purchased a CIB Fisher-Price: Firehouse Rescue for $13.01.  I beat out Nistle as the high bidder.  Sorry man but this is a harder to find box.  Plus I remember playing the game in kindergarten on an apple computer.  Glad I got it.

Very tough box.  I would have bid more than that if I saw the auction.  Good pick up.
