Here has been my experience with Craigslist so far in acquiring classic games.
GB/GBC/GBA - incredibly easy. I just could not believe the shear amount of classics people had to sell or the low prices I was able to negotiate for.
PS2 - Another easy one though, admittedly, I was able to get the majority of my games from Gamestop during their 75% off sale.
DS - The prices I was able to find were very good, the selection was just horrible. I was sifting through pile upon pile of shovelware in these Craigslist posts before finding even a mainstream game.
GameCube - Impossible. The selection is just not there and when I do find some good games the prices are out of control. Couple that with the inherent difficulty of actually meeting up with unreliable people on Craigslist and you have a recipe for frustration.
