I didn't go saling Saturday, I just did my neighborhood walk. There were three bad sales in one cul-de-sac.
At first I didn't buy anything. One house had a Nerf gun for $2 that I passed over. Another house had a stack of overpriced Xbox 360 games (marked $5-$15 each) with one PS1 game mixed in: Parasite Eve, marked at $5. Xbox games don't interest me and $5 is too much for a game so I left. On my way home, I realized that the PS1 game may actually be worth something because it's a Squaresoft RPG, so I made a call and determined it starts at $15 used on Amazon. I walked back to the sale to see if they would let me have it for $2.
They wouldn't take $2 but they countered with $3. I pretended to walk off and they accepted $2 so I paid and left. Walking home, I realized the game came with all the manuals and everything but it was missing one of the three disks. I walk back to the sale yet again and they readily give me my money back as they didn't realize it was missing a disk as well. I got home and looked it up on Amazon to realize that the 3rd disk only has collectors' content and isn't needed to actually play the game. I walked to the sale for the fourth time and offered $1 as the game was missing a disk.
They took the dollar. I haven't decided if the game is going on Amazon or if I should keep it.
