You guys will never guess what I stumbled across at a pawn shop today! Despite what one might believe, Pawn shops are great places to find old video-game items at rock bottom prices.

What I stumbled across today was a PS1 (the mini-playstation) complete with a flip-up attachable portable screen and speakers (And a game incidentally). These kinds of screens are actually expensive accessories.

The price for the whole PS1 setup (With all the wires and the game) $25.

How did I do it? The pawn shop was a chain, and the people running it didn't know that the quite expensive screen was a separate part, so they just charged me the base price of a regular PS1 in the system, which was $25.
