I haven't unsealed it yet, but I just assumed everyone here would already know.
The back of the box says it includes a special bonus DVD, with a behind-the-scenes documentary, previously unreleased in-game music, an art gallery, videos and trailers. Also, the whole thing comes in a neat cardboard fold-out package with a cardboard sleeve.
Not as extensive as limited editions can sometimes be, but it still beats the regular edition, especially when the regular PS3 version is being sold at the same price.

So I was spending some money I got through eBay auctions and picked up a few obscure, loose Genesis games that I've been after but was too lazy to pick up like Final Zone and Phantom 2040 along with some classics I've been meaning to pick up for ages now but have been waiting for good prices like OutRun and Truxton.
One of the games I got was Gaiares. It was five bucks on Half.com and barely had any description besides that it was in "good" condition. I was expecting a loose cart which I would've been happy with despite the fact that Gaiares has some of my favorite box art.
To my surprise I got this in the mail today:
The box, the manual and even the poster! Everything's in mint condition and the game doesn't even look like it's ever been played. I was absolutely thrilled by the surprise.

There is some nice stuff in there...good deal!
The smell of scorched oil hangs in the air as a premonition of danger, while the engine gloriously shouts its war cry...
Throughout history, suspicion has always bred conflict. The real conflict, though, resides in people's hearts. This conflict has just begun.

These are a few things that I've found over the last 2 months
at 2 thrift stores that I regularly visit one a week.
2 MISB GI JOE toys, Cobra Fang and Pac Rac
I paid a dollar something for each, and sold them for 260+ on ebay.
Alpine Stars T-Venom Jacket Paid 32, sold 70
New Seagull S6 GT guitar (Sold for 338)
Like New Shoei X-11 Helmet paid 65, retail 760, ebay value about 280. Facebook Market Place
From Craigslist last week I dropped 100 on Thundercats and He-man, I spent 70 on what's in the photo.
I admit I collect Thundercats, out of whats In the Photo, I sold half of it, made my money back and kept the expensive things for my collection.
I spent 30 earlier on toys from the guy and picked up complete or near complete, they would sell for about 180... I need to convince myself to sell them.
MOTU:
Sorceress
Scare Glow
Horde Trooper
Teela
Thundercats:
Cheetara with Wilykit
Tygra
My last video game finds were
A PSP 2000 hacked with a 16gb card for 39 at a pawn store
A Sega Model 2, 32x, Sega CD and 8-9 games for 25. Had to fix the fuse.

I have not found anything in forever vintage gaming prices have skyrocketed around this crap town.

Goodie goodie, I just went to the post office to pick up this triple treat of PS1 games:
Kurushi (aka Intelligent Qube in the US) was £16, Vib-Ribbon (complete with fold-out poster) set me back £17.44, and finally Point Blank was just £5.
All three games are complete and in generally great condition. Some of the boxes are covered with sticker residue, and I'm thinking about replacing Vib Ribbon's box, because the hinges are a bit sticky. I've got three more spare PS1 boxes, so that shouldn't be a problem.
More detailed pics will follow soon.
