I just saw in another topic that someone had found a 3do at a thrift store for $12. Now thats awesome.
My find a few weeks ago was a unused, complete boxed (manuals, registration cards, anti static bag, disks, etc etc) Sound blaster 2.0 card. The thing looked like it was never even touched and was kept in a dark room for ever. Actually it was more like it time warped from the singapore factory to today. I got it for $7 at the goodwill thrift store. The only thing was there was a slight minor tear at the top of the box. Why someone would hold on to one of these just to donate it to goodwill is beyond me. I was planning on scanning the manual and making disc images but I've been quite lazy lately heh.
Anyone else have some awesome thrift store finds stories to share?
Awesome thrift store finds.

No.
Edit. I have never found any gaming items in a thrift store, ever. I've spotted copies of Fifa 95 on Genesis but that doesn't count. I live in a posh area, with a posh school and I think all the kids go to school on a Saturday, so they don't have time to play games. Or smoke or hang around with girls or be geeks which is what i did. Then again I never gave my old stuff to thrift shops either, so there you go...
