Damn, I missed Portside this year. Fun little fair, pretty eclectic. Was hoping to catch the guy selling 80s Footy Budgets dirt cheap. Haven't been to Port Adelaide much since Fisherman's Wharf shut down. Emporium is a great shop...
One of my fave days of the year! Ah, who am I kidding? I make a whole weekend out of it. Might have to go earlier next year. Saw some pieces I'm chasing that were gone when I rocked up. Namely the Six-MIllion Dollar Man and Mork 12" behind the Mario phone. That booth is always awesome. Outatime Toys has so much cool random stuff. 1:59 Always loved the Intellivision's sleek design. Trying NOT to collect 80s consoles. Definitely gonna grab a 2600 again, tho. Was tempted by the one @ 2:17. Spent that money on OG Marvel Star Wars comics instead, lol. Now I've gotta get back to cutting my own Mega Toy Fair video...
Rarely get anything from Savers but love to look around. However, I did pick up some 80s board games the other day - Twister, Connect 4, Wheel of Fortune. Was gonna grab Sale of the Century with the electronic buzzer. But it was the Glen Ridge version, not Tony Barber, so eh...
A cards & collectables card shop closed down & i purchased everything remaining in the shop - I made my money back with in the first day so i didnt mind selling those marvel cards to you at a bargain price
I like a salesman that can take a gamble with a deal. A $20 (what, like 25 USD?) ps1 is the kind of deals we need to see in the states. the cards were a steal as well. it reminds me of my first garage sale as a kid where I sold a bunch of early-series pokemon cards for $5 and kicked myself ever since
