    Hi -

    I really want Mario Cart 64.

    It's 60 bucks new from amazon.co.uk, and I'm not gonna even bother trying Game with their rip-off secondhand crap.

    Does anyone know of places that sell secondhand games at reasonable prices (online or real world)?

    I tried eBay once and got ripped off, so I'm looking for something less auction-y.

    Or does anyone have a copy of Mario Cart 64 they are willing to part with?

    Thanks!

    you could try gamesworld. but mario cart 64 would be classed as fairly antique by now so (correct me if im wrong) you might expect to pay a bit for it...

    and they have Mario Kart 64!

    Try Gamezone in Talbot Street. They occasionally have a few gems - I picked up Secret of Mana for the SNES for €20 just the other day.

    I find Xtravision and Chartbusters to be the best for N64 games for €5.

    And if your nice to them they can find out of other shops if its in there and post it to you.

    I'm only telling you this because I feel a little bad about snaking the Mario Kart 64 in gamezone from you - Gamezone have another, boxed version of Mario Kart 64 in the window. Best give them a shout quickly.
