im kinda curious where you bought these goodies from. Im originally from South Florida, and the whole time i was growing up, HS and college, i used to absolutely clean up at the Swap Shop Flea Market in Fort Lauderdale.
All kinds of charachters would show up there with boxes and boxes of junk, including decomissioned game parts or anything else in the world you were looking for. I could almost always make an offer on the whole box too.
where abouts in north florida are you, and is their anything equivalent there?
thats one of the sad things about living in Alabama is that their is no humungous place here where people willingly give away boxes of old 2600 stuff for a hotdog and a beer.
