lol... I love Linc's "treasure hunting" suggestion. Actually it really works. I made a good amount of spare cash doing that in college. Search around craigslist and backpage too.

I once found a dude who used to work for sony and got fired, so he was selling all his old swag that he got free from the company. I got a ps2, an old school ps2, and about 30 games (half were still sealed in plastic wrap) all for $200 because he was too lazy to sell everything individually. I broke everything up and ended up grossing around $1300 for all the stuff. It turns out he had two extremely rare games in the lot and one single game sold for over $600 on ebay. The other sold for $300.

I have a "normal" job now, but I still find myself searching craigslist from time to time for good deals. Its always fun to make a quick buck out of someone else's "junk".


There's two sides to every schwartz, he got the up side and I got the down side.
