Flee Market haul

[John_Deere]

Hey all,

Had a track meet yesterday, and right in front of the school we were at was a flee market! My Dad and I always love going to them, and he's taught me how to haggle pretty well. Got myself a ton of stuff, all for just under $20! Here's the haul:



The entire haul





Nice, 1990s violin for $7





7 John Grisham books for $5





Super Mario Bros. 3 and Pokémon Emerald for $1 each





Awesome Soviet Pin for Free





And the absolute diamond in the rough, a Collectors edition Master Chief Helmet for $3!!! Extremely happy, seeing as I've wanted one for about 6 years now!!

Anyways, thanks for looking, and HH

**EDIT** Almost forgot! Got a new 2nd or 3rd Generation iPod Touch for $5! Fully functional and stocked with music by bands I like! Another epic win!

Awesome deal on the violin. If you can, post a picture of the label inside the f holes. Yes I play.
Also, lets see the back of it and the fingerboard close up.
Hard to tell if it a 4/4, 7/8, 3/4 or 1/2 and etc...

If you're looking for books, DVD, CD's, you may want to check your local libraries, with much better pricing. I could have bought those same books for $3.50 Hardcover books are $0.50 ea, CD/DVD $1.00 not too shabby

I have to admit that violin was a steal, and I hope I can run into something like that

Grisham fan huh? I think I read all of those already, lol. You got some great deals. A violin for $9? Sweet! A working Ipod for $5, just as sweet. Not to mention the Halo helmet. Keep at it kid, you've got the knack.

PS- I went to Hayfield HS back in the late 70's, you weren't there were you?

I am just green with envy - great buys!

I've been keeping my eye out for an Ipad for a long time to no avail. Color me green.

I really doubt you will find an iPad. If you do, you have my absolute respect!

No, this one was over at Robinson Secondary in Fairfax County, VA. Thanks for the feedback, too, everyone!

I too play, but I play the Viola. So much cooler than the violin. The E string broke yesterday when I was playing it, gonna get that replaced soon. As for the pics, Here ya go:

 

[duffytrash]

awesome deal on that fiddle...you cant buy the strings for that.....

 

[dejapooh]

Flee? RUN AWAY!!!!!

 

[Coppercrazy]

I seriously just went out and rented a violin yesterday to teach myself. I play trumpet, but wanted to learn a string instrument. $7 come on...I need to find something like that. I would probably pay $50 at a yard sale if I came across one.

 

[Coppercrazy]

Oh and you could probably replace that screen for like $20

that pokemon game is a good find, I found the exact one at a yardsale recently for a quarter, and sold for $35 on the bay, I would do a BIN or start the starting bid at aorund that amt and it should sell fairly quickly, i would imagine you could get a decent amt for the other game too. Apparantly their are like 3 - 4 pokemon games for the game boy each with a different color and the one found sells for the most!

I think there are more like a dozen of the Pokemon games.
