Add .jpg to the end of the links (I already fixed it, but in the future)... The forum software doesn't seem to realize they are photos, and that seems to fix it with links to that site (not sure if it will work on all image hosting sites or not...)

Wow great finds. They both go for quite a few bucks these days. You could easily get 50 euros for Snoopy. Not sure about the other, but probably something in the same price area.

Damn, I never find s**t at garagesales.

it was pure luck,
I had to go to work
we received a book with all the garage sale participants
and what they were roughly selling
this one indicates videogames
I couldnt see any when I went, I was ready to leave
and decided to ask the guy to be sure
"oh I only have little things"
and he showed those
someone else was already looking (and holding ) one of them
soI grabbed them and paid
they are working fine
and will be great in my collection Yessss!

Seems there's always someone right on top of it before you. Garage sales can be nerve racking in this respect. I like to go to a couple of the small flea markets too, you know, the ones that are like yard sales. A lot of things get fried in the hot sun sometimes out there. Nice find. Congrats!
