27/30, unexpectedly crossed this one off. Two of the last three are prohibitively expensive these days and one is only painfully so. #nescollector #retrogaming #blackboxgames #iceclimber #nintendo https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf24N7CsRCF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Awe-gust Acquisitions

The month is only a week old and already I have amassed some pretty amazing antiquities and have some other items still arriving anytime now. A not so funny story on one of the lots... I bid on a grouping of 12 manuals a few weeks back that had 2 that I needed and some that appeared in better shape than those currently in my collection. Just before I was set to finish bidding I had to rush out of the house so I had the eBay app open on my phone with the intention of placing a bid when I got in the car. In my bearish, clumsy way, I had my hands full of things (including my phone) and sometime between my front door and the car I placed a bid totaling $9,440. It is really a good thing that this particular item did not have much chance of going over $100 (let alone $1000) otherwise that would have been some very expensive paper artifacts. The bidding ended under $50 but that could have been really bad.

Alright back to the aforementioned action. A few days back I got the manual for Castlevania 2: Simon’s Quest and a better copy of Paperboy from SW for a future trade (probably once that lot of manuals arrive). Today I received 3 boxed games from a facebook group seller in Victoria named Sean. In the box was Volleyball, Excitebike and Master Chu and the Drunkard Hu. Even though I didn’t have the game or instructions for Master Chu before today, the highlight of this purchase would have to be Volleyball and Excitebike gamepaks. Being that they are original Black Box games it was absolutely amazing to add them to my collection (complete in box).
