Ever been to a flea market? No, not a place where fleas are bought and sold, it's an organized place where people buy and sell whatever they happen to have that they feel may be of value to someone. Well, you never know what you might find at those places.

I was forced to go with my dad to a company party a state or so down from North Carolina (we were all the way in the state of Georgia.) Before we came back, we went to Keller Flea Market and walked all over the place - pretty big one, it is. A table full of older consoles caught my attention, and I asked the lady in charge of it if she had a Sega Saturn by any chance. Turns out she had two, and a bunch of games. No one, ever, anywhere, even knows what that is, so imagine my surprise at seeing this! I was sad not to find Sonic 3D Blast among those games (the Saturn version of that game is godly, I don't care what anyone says), but Daytona USA was in that list so that kinda worked out; we ended up getting it. We also found the GameCube bonus disc that came with Wind Waker pre-orders that had the N64 Ocarina of Time emulation as well as the Master Quest version to go with it - got that too. We also got a couple of birds. That's about all we got, though. Among a few other notable things I saw there were a 76000-in-1 NES game pack controller with a Super Mario Bros ROM on it that had a modified title graphic, a slot machine, and a Sega CD / 32X / Model 1 Genesis. There was more I found to be of interest but it's not coming to mind for some reason - oh well.

Ever been to one of these Flea Market places? If so, ever find anything interesting?

Yeah, I love going to flea markets. I usually just buy old comic books, though.

Sounds like you got some pretty neat stuff, Miles! I've never been to a flea market before, but I have gotten some cool things - like old computer software for free or almost-free - at the local school system's surplus sales center, which is a lot like a flea market.

probably haven't been to a flea market in a decade or so, they're really cool places though

yea pretty much this. i feel like i could find a lot of neat stuff in a flea market, but it's been ages since i've stepped foot in one.
