  1. Here are two more pics. (there's a bit of discoloration in the grooves. Looks like dust but I can't get it out with Q-tips and alcohol. I don't use retro-brite or anything like that as I don't have any experience with it and don't want to accidentally make it worse)
  2. Little bump and price drop. How about $75 + shipping? Anyone... Buehler? (i.e. $95US shipped within Canada, $115US shipped to the US)
  3. 100% support to you, Al, this is such an amazing site and community, there's no way you should be penalized financially for it. To be totally honest, I've been planning to subscribe ever since the possibility existed, but then I'd keep forgetting about it or putting it off. This finally got me to put my ass in gear. I hope it has a similar effect on lots of other people.
  4. I plugged it into Canada Post, but only get ridiculous answers ($140?!?!). So I'm sorry - but Canada/US shipping only. (As mentioned, the power adapter and joysticks are Atari, but not from a heavy sixer)
  5. Yea, shipping into and out of Canada has gotten quite bad. I did weigh it to get an estimate for shipping: Looks like $20US ($25Cad) within Canada, and $40US to continental United States.
  6. I decided to sell one of my two Heavy Sixers. This has been cleaned and recently tested. Works great. Some detailed notes to avoid any surprises: * I opened it up to replace the video cable since the picture was very fuzzy. See picture of inside. With the new cable, the video picture is beautiful! * Not all screws are/were present in the backside holding the plastic shell together, nor seem to be original. * See picture of it working (TV and Space Invaders game not included, but I'll throw in a Combat and Air Sea Battle cartridge). * Includes two Atari CX-40 Joysticks and power adapter. (Note these are both Atari, but neither would be from the original Heavy Sixer, i.e. not CX-10. See attached pictures, happy to answer questions. Looking to get $85 US $75 US + shipping, paypal gift payment. I'm in Canada - so shipping beyond Canada and the US will be too expensive for sure.
  7. From my own experience, I'd say no. I agree with everything said above, and would add this: after working on a game for months or a year, you can get _really_ sick of your own game. I may not actually play the finished game that much, having played every piece of it to death during development.
  8. I've decided to reduce my collection - unfortunately they spend too much time just sitting on my shelf and too little time being played. A collection of various titles. A lot of them are from my Epyx collection, including some very rare titles (Barbie, Hot Wheels...). Also one of my Heavy 6ers. Items are priced for ebay, but if someone on AtariAge wants to do a direct deal with either gift/friends-and-family payment (or do a package deal) I'm more than happy to discount! https://www.ebay.ca/sch/mepaddy/m.html
  9. One more bump: Added PC game lot, Atari Force comics, and Commodore Super Sketch.
  10. Bump: Adding new items over the next little while. Up now, a small set of boxed Atari ST games.
  11. Oh cool! You know, I don't know why I didn't think of listing on AtariAge first. Could have saved me a lot of work with those individual listings. But all's well that ends well.
  12. After many years of (lovingly) staring at my collection in bookshelves around me, I've decided that I need to thin things out a little. I will add to this thread as things go along instead of making new threads each time. Shipping is from Saskatchewan, Canada - that unfortunately does mean that shipping to the US especially is pricy (but tracked). Commodore 64 Super Sketch Complete in box with cart and starter kit. In nice condition. This is another item I've had for (at least) 15 years, and always thought to myself "one day I'll try this out". Never have - so time to go to someone else Asking US $70 + ship. Atari Force DC Comic Lot Complete run of issues 1-20, plus "special" #1. All in really nice shape. I must be honest, I don't even know why I bought these so many years ago. I'm not a comic reader. Haha - time to put the shelfspace to better use. Asking US $25 + shipping. Big Box PC Game Lot Secret Weapons of The Luftwaffe (Lucasfilm), Tachyon The Fringe, Nova 9, Microcosm, Steel Panthers II, and Panzer General II. The latter two don't have the "inner" cardboard, just the flimsy outer cardboard. Steel Panthers II has both the game CD and the extra campaigns CD. These things are heavy - Luftwaffe alone weighs a metric ton (almost). So I'm honestly not sure how best to offer them. As the entire lot, I'd ask $50 (US) + shipping. (Edit - SOLD) Decided to sell my entire Retro Gamer collection. I currently do have them on eBay, but am happy to end listings and sell individual issues or lots to fellow AtariAge users for discounts. Send me a PM if you're interested in any issues. For direct Paypal gift payments from Atariagers, I'm happy to do $10 US or $13.50 CAD per issue plus shipping, less if you buy several issues. Do note that they are heavy (~375 g per issue), so shipping is high both within Canada and from Canada to the US (and as of two magazines they have to go out as packages, not lettermail). Shipping to Europe is pretty crazy.
  13. Sorry no, long gone. So long, in fact, that I can't remember selling them. And I look at the picture and think "why did I sell that one??".
  14. I recently introduced my son (11) to the Infocom games (started with Wishbringer). He loves it - so yes, I still think they have charm today.
  15. Thanks for posting the video, feldhamer - very neat to see it all laid out like that. Would have been fun to be there (alas, too far away).
  16. Only two... ouch! I'd say Toyshop Trouble and Medieval Mayhem Runners up: Dungeon, Stay Frosty 2 Special Mention: Boulder Dash Ok, that's five. I better stop before I name five more!
  17. Nice setup! Are all the consoles/computers plug into a switchbox or do you switch plugs manually? (Also: you don't happen to be "discgolfer" from the Wonderland game forums from long ago... probably not, but thought I'd ask)
  18. Bought two tabletop mini arcades from him. Both arrived in mint shape as described, very well packed, fast shipping, and good communication. A+ seller!
  19. And Dark Crystal arrived in great shape. Thumbs up for Klotz and recommended guy to deal with.
