No pictures but my best "budget" find was in December of 2011. A Monopoly, HUO with 80 plays on it. Guy just wanted it out of his house, his price? Free. He just did not want his walls messed up getting it down stairs. I finally convinced him to take $50 (all I had in my wallet).
Haven't done better than that one yet but I'm hoping

Hmm...that beats a mint Roadshow I got for $200....same thing, lady just wanted it out of her house, and a WMS Indy for $700....guy was being evicted from his house and needed it out that day in a snow storm....that one wasnt easy but paid one of my guys a bonus to make it happen and we got it. Both not that long ago either! Your deal takes the cake!

Yes he did, which is why I posted. I like his game room. It's pretty fun game room shopping on a budget. If you are diligent and keep you eyes looking, the deals will pop up.
My games came from back porches, garages, a warehouse raid, craigslist and friends.
My budget per game is $200 or less. They are not in mint condition. They are nice and after a good shop job, very playable.
