That week I found 40 working PS2 games at a yard sale for $15 total

I was driving past a random sale last Saturday near my place in Phoenix and saw a dusty bin labeled 'old game stuff'. The guy wanted $20 for the whole thing but I talked him down to $15 because the cases were scratched. Got 40 PS2 games including Silent Hill 2 and a black label Shadow of the Colossus that goes for like $60 alone. Cleaned them all up with some alcohol and a microfiber cloth and every single one booted right up. I still can't believe that happened, has anyone else ever stumbled on a haul like that?

I read something last week about how the PS2 is still the best selling console ever and stuff like this is exactly why. People slept on those games for years and now the good ones are going up in price like crazy. You basically got a Silent Hill 2 for pocket change and that's insane considering what it sells for online. What gets me is the guy had it all in a bin and probably thought it was junk. Did he not know about the black label Shadow of the Colossus or did he just not care?

Bet he just saw old games and figured nobody wanted them anymore.
