When I got my used Nintendo Entertainment System and games on Sunday, I only spent time on cleaning the game cartridges. I was too scared to open up the actual system to see if it needed cleaning. What if I couldn't put it back together?! After watching a few YouTube videos, I took a deep breath and unscrewed everything and opened up the system when I got home from work. Wow, was it dusty! I would have taken a picture, but it was really gross. With a Swiffer duster, rubbing alcohol and Q-tips, I was able to get it back into a more acceptable shape. It was even reading games better without as much jiggling around as Sunday.
I went back to Goodwill after spin class to return Taboo, the eletronic version (the screen was not working when I put fresh batteries in it). In exchange, I got some A/V wires that I will be keeping and a TI-82 calculator that I need to test out with fresh AAA batteries. If it works, up on Ebay it goes! I found a TI-83 Plus calculator but the battery compartment cover was missing and the battery slots have seen better days, I think. That would have been an awesome find!
My Cinderella DVD that I bought last week sold tonight. Woot!
A part of me wishes that I got into this Ebay thing earlier...
