Loaded was amazing game on ps1
 
Been out mooching around for gamecube games today in local market/boot sale and then in some 2nd hand shops where mostly smack heads trade in video recorders and dvd players.I walked in the shop not expecting much because it was a complete dump,noticed he had some ps2 games and xbox games but couldnt see anything decent then on way out i noticed 2 gamecube games stuffed down the side of a pile of books,Resident evil 4 and dead to rights.

The guy noticed me looking at them and said oh those were supposed to be sold with the gamcube i have here,he pulled out a carrier bag with gamecube and pad and powersupply and said he wants £15 for the gamecube and the games ,but he said the gamecube keeps switching itself off after 10mins said the fan doesn't work.I told him i am not intrested in the console but the games i would buy,he said well i have this aswell ,he pulls out a little gamecube disc wallet with gamecube games in,he said any of those interests you.I had a look in and it had some cracking games in,he said you can have them £1 a game,i snapped them up.I ended up getting 12 games.The guy said i have a bag of games i haven't sorted yet for ps2 if you want to have a look through,brings out another carrier bag with ps2 games in and i couldn't beleive the game he had,i have been trying to get it for about 2 years,i refuse to pay the money for it on ebay.I ended up getting it for £1

here is the first 2 boxed games i noticed,i really should have checked the discs inside first because resident evil is has only first disc in the box :( but for £1 i cant really moan.I just ordered 3 of those wallets from ebay for £8 for 3 cases 2 days ago and ended up getting one basicly free today

Wow very lucky find. I purchased a Gamecube on the Bay and have been buying games from there having no luck in charity shops etc, Zelda collectors is gotta be worth £20 alone. Nice!

Having trouble with that seller atm, he claims to have sent it via 1st class recorded on 18/6/12 and input tracking number.

Should have been here by now surely.

No goods received by close of play 22/6/12

I've asked for proof of postage twice which remain unanswered too! Prior to asking for proof of postage, image of receipt, eBay messages were answered within minutes...:mad:
 
he prob realised it was a waste of his time posting because it prob cost him around £6-7 to post that,wouldn't surprise me if he says must have got lost and just refunds you the cash
 
The tracking number provided says it is on it's way to me, for all I know I could be receiving an empty envelope.

I have asked for proof of postage, via uploaded image of receipt THREE times, the first two went ignored, the third time says I'll show you later when I get home.

Pathetic.

Dear ,

I'd advise you to go to your parcel collection point and see if its there, sometimes my postman doesn't put a while you were out card through

ill upload an image ASAP I'm out at the minute

I foced the seller to show me proof of postage, by asking him 3 times before he given in, he shown me a copy of the receipt.

For example postcode here would be OL16 5XX the Post Office have done it as OL16 SXX a letter rather than a number, either he's done it as a clever trick of the chump behind the counter has made error...

Since pointing this mistake out, no response from the seller. Fair enough people have lives come weekend, but he is normally quick to fire back excuses.

I've picked up two more N64 games today which are: Mischief Makers and Mario Tennis. Can't wait to play them both later

I wish I could find a PAL copy of Snowboard Kids 2 :( The last PAL version I saw on the bay was posted last July!
I know a member on here has a copy of it and for that he is a total ******* lol :D ;)



@Jaymond I really hope you can sort that Megadrive deal out, it was an absolute bargain!

Surely now I have good grounds for eBay to refund me? As the picture of the receipt has been uploaded to the case and I've kept a copy on file.
