      Pretty sure this one was missing the accessories. I figured it was worth a lot though.

    awesome flea market, there's two types of flea markets the "covered in dust" & "wrapped in plastic", one is old stuff or antiques & the other is new stuff. I miss going to the covered in dust flea market & I'm interested in the Action Comics boxes, not a comic book collector but I do collect shirts.

    So here's a short list of NES games that I would recommend off the top of my head.
    Batman
    Ducktales
    Mega Man (all of them pretty good but the 2nd one is my favorite)
    Gradius or Lifeforce
    River City Ransom
    Castlevania
    Metroid (the original is good but tough)
    Crystalis (similar to Legend of Zelda)
    Blaster Master
    Adventure of LoLo

    Actually, it’s “if I had a nickel for every time he said, “I have that”, then I’d be a millionaire”…..it’s a drinking game, too. Take a shot every time you say, “I’ve got that”……..

    Do you recall a media formate, not betabax, but it was the size of a 33 vinyl record and about 1/2 inch thick. I saw it for the first and last time at a friends house in 1984. What is that format called?

    If the condition is VG+ or EXC on a metal lunchbox you're not going to get hurt paying up a little. Almost all of them were absolutely abused by kids, and then tack on 40 years of storage, condition is going to be a big issue with a lot of them. Especially look out for rust INSIDE the box, a lot of leaky thermoses and spilled juice boxes. Actually rots right through. I'm grabbing every interesting metal box even if its a tiny bit overpriced. They are def. not getting any easier to find.

    • @fleabittenadventures
      @fleabittenadventures  3 місяці тому

      Good points! I'm ok with a little wear, but rust and big dents or peeling stickers on the plastic ones are a no-go for me.
