Replacing Instruction Booklets?
Hey everybody!
I have a quick question for the gaming forum:
What is the best method for finding or buying replacment instruction booklets for games? I've been buying up a lot of older Xbox, PS2, and Gamecube games lately for really cheap prices. It's been fun, but I'd like to replace the missing instruction booklets for some of the games. I like having a complete game on my shelf and I do enjoy reading the booklets too.
I've tried ebay and gamebooklets.com. The gamebooklets site is great, but they often are missing the ones I need. Ebay is usually a ripoff and wants 3-5 bucks for the booklet and 6-7 dollars to ship it! Considering that a lot of the games I buy are under 5 bucks to begin with, it's hard to justify spending more on the booklet than the game...lol...
Does anyone have any tips?
Thanks!
Erik

Thanks guys! I bought four more games tonight and 2 are missing the booklets, so I'll be hunting. For some reason it drives me nuts when the game is not complete. A lot of rental stores are clearing out PS2, GC, and Xbox around me at 4.99 each or buy one get one free, so I've picked up a bunch of great titles for dirt cheap

I have not heard back from Game Booklets yet by email. The booklets I most want are:
Cold Fear - Xbox
Tomb Raider Legends - Xbox
Onimusha 4 - PS2
If anyone has them and would part with them, I'll be happy to buy them...
