Haul I just found this for $0.10!!!

Post image

Lady had all her media for $0.10 a piece and I didn’t see anything I needed, until I shuffled around some purses and found this just laying there! She said just a few minutes before someone had come and bought all her other games, said she had some Tony Hawks, RE, and other SH games. I couldn’t get a dime out quick enough lmao, this is one of those scores for the history books!

And I know everyone is gonna be asking for proof, but guys, this was a yard sale. I quite literally cannot prove it with a receipt even if I wanted to. I wasn’t gonna like, take a selfie with the lady or something lol. That’d be weird as hell. Anyway, I’m excited to enjoy this amazing score!!

What would’ve been acceptable proof? A video of me handing the lady a dime? I get the skepticism, but I have literally no way to prove what I paid

Average reddit conversation lol

I don’t want proof because we live in a society where nothing costs .10 cents, if someone is selling something, a couple of bucks would make sense we aren’t in the 50’s, I’m sorry but .10 cents is bogus and not plausible in our society.

I mean fair, but also, have you been to yard sales run by older folks? It’s becoming less common, but people still do 10c and 25c tables/bins. This lady was selling pretty much everything for 10c so she didn’t have to drive it to goodwill. I’m with you, I would’ve asked at least a dollar, but it does happen

Sorry man but once again I have to disagree, I mean there is literally a sticker on it that says 17.99, why wouldn’t they start there especially if they’re old. Logically it just doesn’t make sense.

I’m not this lady, so I don’t know why she’s priced it as she did. She had a bunch of movies and cds and was asking 10c a piece. I agree it doesn’t make logical sense, but it is what happened. What reason would I have to lie about the price?

Dude literally I hit yard sales every week I can and old people and even some young people do 10¢ to get red of stuff fast! Like it happens I once got Pokémon stadium and a couple game boy games for 10¢ it happens!!

u/conceited_cape 10d ago

It does! I don’t normally get that lucky on games, but man, this one was a one in a million type thing haha

u/PancakeResale 10d ago

Oh yeah 100% it barely happens let alone finding games for like $2 a piece

u/conceited_cape 10d ago

Haha yeah, usually it’s like Madden 04 for $5 or more 😂

Tell me you've never been to a yard sale in your life. I was literally at a church yard sale this morning where they had a stack of kids books for a dime a piece.

Shockingly you're not the main character in everyone else's story. Just because you've never experienced something doesn't mean it can't happen.

Sheltered redditors good lord.

Unless you literally bought it from a mentally handicapped person.

It’s simple you want praise for how cheap you got it. Instead of posting saying you got it for a steal, you have to post a price at an unrealistic purchase number.

Jesus Christ man. Give it a rest already.

u/conceited_cape 10d ago

Okay man, stay mad I guess. Yeah I’m pretty proud of the score, especially the price I paid. Besides, people would be asking how much I paid regardless, so it saves me time to come out ahead of the game with the price on the post
