BlueStarReturns wants to buy/sell stuff! (Updated: 6/12/2012) [locked]

Hey, I'm back and I've got a few new things I need to buy! Here they are:

- Sonic Adventure DX (GC) As long as it works, I'll buy it, not too picky about condition otherwise
- A fully functional N64 controller. I have four sitting on my shelf that in one way or another are P(plural).O.S, which I'm sure we all know what that means (if we're being serious =P). I only play SM64 cause it's all I have with me (my OoT is lost somewhere at my folks, but not gone) and the verdict is: Two controllers pull off the somersault move perfectly, precisely and at the right speed, yet when I run, Mario runs like molasses and the pause menu's all but fast. I know that the 64 version is faster than this because the other two run and scroll at a faster speed, yet the somersault is unresponsive. I am willing to pay the original new price for a controller of full function.
- Finally, though not for speedrunning, I'll take a used copy of Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary just so I can play it.

Paypal is the best way to contact me. PM me when you have one of the items and I'll end the money to you.

For being such a common game, this one sure does cost a lot.

Well anyway, I hope someone is willing to sell you a copy for how much is should be worth (based on how common it is), rather than how much it usually goes for.

Additionally, ebay has one for 17 shipped, and half.com has some for 13+S/H.

Just saying, if you own a Wii you can get it for around $12 for the VC, it saves quite a bit of lag, and you can use a better controller.

Tranquilite - ya I noticed that too, I was going to buy one until I played it at a freinds house, learning specific camera angles for certain levels doesn't appeal to me when I've gotten used to VC, so I'm content with it, same game anyway.

I am interested in your SNES, how much for you to part with it?

Well, I looked up that the most that one in my condition would go for is $75, so that's my maximum. If you can't do that, I'm open to discussing a minimum you'd be willing to pay (plus maybe you know what it's going for better than I do; I neither want to rip you off nor lose money from when I bought it used)

EDIT: On second thought, kryal, please send me a PM when you're ready to start the transaction

that's like, $15 bux less than a famicom. i see SNES go for $30-$50 most of the time, so I'd be more willing to discuss prices in that range

I can do $30-$50, but shipping's going to need to be included, as said in the first post. I don't make enough money to pay bills and have any left over for shipping fees. Do you have time now? I'm probably going to be up all night and I'm done streaming on ustream for now.

EDIT: I'll check quick. Does UPS ship internationally?

See first post. I suck at calculating shipping, so if you're better at it, please help. I'll give you the info you need about me.

UPS ships internationally. So does USPS, FedEx etc.

A SNES will fit into a medium flat rate box (FRB) but it doesn't leave any room for packaging which is normally a big no-no. It's $45.50 to do it that way. A large FRB will make it there safer but it's $58. I can't figure out how to get UPS to ship it for less than $150. It keeps trying to make me send it next day air so good luck.

Thanks for the info, dballin! So, I guess it depends on how safe you want it to get there, Kryal. If you can't buy it now, though, please let me know so I can make it available to other people again.

Also I've send you a PM.

Updated. I am, unfortunately, not selling my SNES anymore due to having regained my fondness of old-school consoles.
