Stopped into the Value Village in Cambridge today. I've never seen so many Transformers at once in a VV...

Unfortunately they were all missing parts or limbs...

What I did see included

Beast Wars: Transmetal Rattrap, Armadillo Guy, Transmetal Waspinator, Preying Mantis Guy, and a few others who escape me right now that were all missing various parts

Movie: Voyager Prime (missing arm), Robot Replicas Prime, Bumper Battlers Ratchet, Cake Ornament Prime, M&M's Prime Candy dispenser thing

Misc: Classics Astrotrain missing some parts, About a dozen of the Pre-school Gobots guys and one of those transforming construction trucks that they used to give away in gas stations years ago.

Cheers!

I doubt it, I found and picked up an xbox w/1 controller, the IR sensor for the remote (no remote though), and another IR sensor which after some searching was a wireless sensor for a controller. No other connections there but luckily I already have a set already and after powering up, found a copy of Halo2 in the drive.

Usually, yes, if it comes with the power cables and such, they'll plug them in, but we only test if the power comes on. Some items though, will go out "as is" and it'll be marked on the price tag "not tested" so it's almost a buy at your own risk thing in those cases.

I remember a few months ago i came across a 250gb 360 Elite in a donation, i was shocked as hell, and happy, because mine had just RRoD'd, so i plugged it in and sure enough, RRoD on this one too. They managed the sell the controllers and HD though, after i convinced them that throwing out the HD was a waste, and somebody would buy it.
