Results! and New FMF

The results are in from last weeks Flea Market Finds:

Fisher Price Amazing Animals Choo-Choo? Paid $1. Sold for .99 (Booo)

Sega Genesis Splatterhouse II? Paid .18. Sold for $25.89 (Yay)

GBA Pokemon Chaos Black? Paid $8.00. Sold for $30.00. (Yay) Issued refund (Booo)

The Pokemon game sold but eBay cancelled the auction (don't know how they can cancel it after it's over and paid for but they did). The buyer freaked out and demanded a refund, which I obliged. The problem was, eBay has no product specs for this game and I guess that means they feel the game is bootlegged. Either that or a grumpy seller is telling eBay they are bootlegged so they can maximize there own auctions. Whichever it is, I still have the game and need to figure out how to sell it now.

On a happier note, another game from the Sega lot I bought for $10 did well. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Hyperstone Heist sold for $13.50. I sold 9 games out of the 35+ in the lot for a total of $58.63.

With that said, here are this weeks Flea Market Finds:

Rainbow Brite Giant Card Game, circa 1983 (paid .10)

New Super Mario Bros. for DS (paid $8.00)

Sega Star Control Game Complete (paid $3.00)

Let me know which one will bring the most $$$ ('cuz that's what we are about here at the Piggy Capitalist).

Flea Market Flippers

I forgot I had this here blog. Man, I was kinda intense originally. Oh, well, let's see if we can bury those first two with something different.

(Cue Monty Python)

"And now, for something completely different"

As the name of this blog is 'Piggy Capitalist', it seems fitting to share my flea market and yard sale finds and maybe post any scores or duds. Many of the items I find will make their way to eBay under the handle, bbohnsfactory.

Here is some of what I hauled home this week:

Fisher Price Amazing Animals Sing & Go Choo Choo Train $1

Game Boy Advance Pokemon Chaos Black Cartridge $8

Sega Genesis Splatterhouse II with manual and case $0. 26

The Splatterhouse II game was in a box of 38 games and 2 Sega Genesis consoles I got for $10. I figured I would get $15-20 apiece for the consoles and there are about 8 other games that have value in the box.

These 3 are all on eBay now. Which one do you think will net me the most profit?
