Tecmo Classic Arcade - Xbox, $9 (complete) -- Only 11 games, and the price wasn't that cheap, but it includes several good ones, including some stuff not previously available outside of the arcades, so it's definitely worth getting anyway. :)

Mortal Kombat II - 32X - $5, cart only
Not the most amazing game ever, sure, but I did want it, and I don't exactly see 32X games very often... had to pick it up. Pretty cool find! :)
Also, while I was there, the guy let me have two disc-only Sega CD games for free... I go in there and talk to him sometimes and was there for a while, and he ended up just letting me have them. I wasn't about to refuse... (they were untested)
Flink
Mickey Mania
Yeah, both of them are great platformers. Both are also on the Genesis, though Flink was evidently only on cart in Europe, so this is the only US version. I'd never played it before, but it's a really good game with great cartoony graphics and fun fantasy platformer gameplay. I'm sure I'll be talking more about this one in the future. The disc does have a little damage on it and in one of the early levels the music fails midway through the level, but if that's all that's wrong with the disc, I don't mind at all.
Mickey Mania... that one's much better known, and popular, for a reason. Great game. I think I like Flink more, really, but this game's fantastic too, and the Sega CD has the best version. Disc had a bunch of gunk stuck to the top of it, but I got that off and it otherwise seems to be fine.
Also, I got these in another store:
Insecticide - Nintendo DS - card only, $10 -- I'd been interested in getting this one for quite some time... finally did. Seems fun enough. :)
And four jewelcase/disc only PC games for $1 each:
Diablo (disc only)
Roller Coaster Tycoon: Loopy Landscapes, Includes Corkscrew Follies (disc only; I already have the base game, so why not get the expansions? :))
The Humans (disc only)
Sonic 3D Blast and Sonic R Twin Pack (in original jewelcase; I mostly got this for Sonic R, which I don't have yet outside of emulation, as I already have 3D Blast on the Genesis. I do like 3D Blast though, so I don't mind getting another version of that either. :)
So yeah, some pretty cool stuff there, and some good luck...
