  1. I am in need of one TurboGrafx CD Docking station, I think that's what its called, its the base unit that connects the TG-16 to the CD Unit, I don't need the CD unit or the TG-16 just the base unit, anyway if someone has an extra one in good condition I could pay 25.00 plus shipping LMK Thanks fnd
  2. BTW That scan is not of the super pac-man board
  3. Its the same one I emailed you scans of not to long ago, its a curiosity but not sure about it being a lab loaner
  4. Wagglepop is now open and since this is a thread about proto's I thought I would post a plug for my new store that I loaded with 5200 Proto's https://www.wagglepop.com/storecatalog.asp?userid=119

  6. I agree fully without the sticker Its just another box and I also agree the price I listed on my web site is very high, but its more or less a BIN that I intentionally set very high as I did not really want to sell it ought right but instead wanted to take offers, was really only using the add for convenience when offering it here Anyway again Please don't let the price stop you from making an offer as I have already received offers that are acceptable and will continue to accept them until about 10:00 PM Friday, at that time I will be selling it to the highest offer PS I want this to be as fair as possible for everyone concerned so I wont be disclosing the offers or sale price to anyone, I will make my decision on the offers as received and will not be emailing anyone to see if they want to beat the high offer. Last I have not given up on finding the label and will certainly send it to the new owner if I ever do find it but please don't expect it or consider it in the amount you offer as I have already done a very intense search and have not been able to locate it. FND
  7. Thanks for taking the time to comment on the C 3203 information, the fact that your box does not have the C is very enlightening especially added to the fact I know of another Boxed example with the white sticker (ATLANTIS II) and it also does not have the C. I was also curious as to why Imagic would take the time to special print the box with only the one small change and not add any other notation, It could even be that the scan we have seen is actually a special run mock up box or even a box for another game system, I know the Atari 800 Atlantis box has IZ 4203. Anyway I have no doubt your box is the one originally sent so I am now much more confident the one I have is also, but without the sticker its just another box and impossible to prove (I really need to find it). BTW the label I received looked exactly like yours with the exception it was pretty tattered and even missing part of the right edge. Last to anyone who is interested please don't let the price I put on my web site stop you from making an offer I intentionally set it at the very high end so if it was to sell I would not be disappointed by a higher offer after the fact FND
  8. The time has come to sell one of my prized Atari 2600 items, ATLANTIS II If interested please send me your best offer, I need to raise some cash for some unexpected bills. Here is a link to the game with some screen shoots, I did a fast listing on my web site so I could post the pictures and information all in one place. http://www.videogamesauction.com/cgi-bin/a...item=1135832431 Here is the story, I purchase this item from a guy who purchased it from the original owner. PLEASE NOTE I can not guaranty the box is the original since the little white label that would have said ATLANTIS II is missing. I did contacted the ORIGINAL owner after getting the game and box less the label and was relieved to find out he still had the label which he later sent me, I put it away in a safe place, so safe in fact I can't find it now (believe me I looked everywhere), Another reason I cant guaranty the box to be original is I cannot be sure the second owner sent me the correct box, There is a possibility it could have been switched by mistake. I would not have ever doubted it except that I have recently been told the box should have a C 3203 on the spine and not the IA 3203 which is present on this one. I have only heard about the C notation from one individual so I cannot be positive if this information is in fact correct but All things considered it has raised enough doubt in my mind that I need to mention it. Any questions feel free to ask FND
  9. Have you opened them, I bet they are socketed and you can just read the EPROM's in on your burner? Opened the Explorer and I don't think it is soldered but does not have the typical black plastic base, looks like it is pushed down into the board with some special gold colored caps on the individual pins, really don't want to try and pull the EPROM for fear of damage. Also after opening the case I notice the EPROM has a different date on the sticker it reads ExplorerTM Activision 6/1/84 Ver 16 AHC
  10. Matt I have a 1984 Activision, Inc. ExplorerTM CONFIDENTIAL 5/29/84 AHC And 1983 Activision, Inc. Zenji TM AHC Confidential 12/28/83 But not way to dump Know anyone in Cal (bay area) that could dump them? FND
  11. Or what average shipping would be (low shipping = $8.00) fnd
  12. Why are they calling it a "dispute" and not "Initiate contact" or something similar.
  13. Here is the post from ebay in case anyone is interested, Below that is an update explanation from an ebay pink to: eBay Announcements ***Coming in January: Item Not Received Process*** Date: 11/17/04 Time: 03:02:14 PM PST In January 2005, eBay will be launching a new method to help buyers and sellers communicate and resolve disputes when a buyer experiences a problem. The new Item Not Received process will introduce a set of product and policy enhancements that take the mystery out of what to do when the buyer has not received an item or has received an item that is significantly different from what was described in the listing. Why the Item Not Received Process is Important: Today, when there is a problem with a transaction, it can often be unclear to both buyers and sellers what steps they can take to reach a successful resolution. This can lead to added frustration and a negative member experience for both transaction partners. The new Item Not Received process will help both buyers and sellers understand what actions to take in the unlikely event that a transaction problem occurs. Benefits of the new Item Not Received process include: -Enhanced Buyer-Seller Communication System -- Buyers will be able to initiate a dialogue with sellers from within My eBay. This system is designed to facilitate positive outcomes. At each stage of the process, eBay will provide guidance to both the buyer and the seller, through educational tips and next steps that may help them resolve the problem. -Consolidated Dispute Console in My eBay -- Buyers and sellers will be able to track and respond to any Item Not Received or Unpaid Item dispute from one location in My eBay. -Improved Member Education -- New buyers are often unfamiliar with what to expect on eBay. The new process will emphasize education for new buyers at each stage of the process. It will also require that buyers wait at least seven days to initiate a dispute. This will give the buyer time to learn about standard delivery times and other processes related to purchasing items on eBay. In addition, both buyers and sellers will receive resolution tips to improve chances for resolution. -Shorter Waiting Period -- Buyers who are unable to resolve a dispute with the seller will not have to wait as long to file a claim through the eBay Standard Purchase Protection Program. A buyer will be able to close the dispute and file a claim 17 days after the listing ends on eBay. (Currently, there is a 30-day waiting period). -Better Integration with PayPal -- Buyers who pay with PayPal will be brought directly to PayPal to initiate a claim. PayPal will determine if the claim is eligible for coverage and will pay the claim directly based on criteria for PayPal Buyer Protection [https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_pbp-info-outside] or the eBay Standard Purchase Protection Program. http://pages.ebay.com/help/confidence/isgw...ageName=CMDV:AB For more information, please read our Item Not Received Frequently Asked Questions [http://pages.ebay.com/help/announcement/9.html?ssPageName=CMDV:AB] and take the educational tour. http://pages.ebay.com/securitycenter/itemn...ageName=CMDV:AB As we draw closer to launch, please look for more updates and informative workshops. We welcome your input on the new Item Not Received Process, and we encourage you to email [email protected] with your comments. Regards, eBay -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [email protected] (view author's auctions) 11/18/04 11:33 AM(#16 of 92) Hi Everyone, We appreciate all the feedback on the new Item Not Received or Significantly Not as Described process. To clarify a few things… Opening a Dispute vs. Filing a Claim. Even though Opening a Dispute is a necessary first step before an eBay Standard Purchase Protection Program claim can be filed, we strongly believe most transaction problems will be resolved before a claim is actually filed. The Item Not Received process is heavily weighted toward helping buyers and sellers communicate with one another when, during the first week after the transaction closes, such communication is not happening. Seller Obligations under the Item Not Received process. No part of the new Item Not Received process requires sellers to ship their items by a particular date, though there are advisory pages that aim to help set reasonable expectations for buyers. The seller’s obligation is, first and foremost, to respond to the buyer’s dispute. The process offers a structured way for sellers to do so including “resolution tips” along the way designed to make communication as effective as possible. Earlier Timelines. Today, buyers who have transaction problems must wait 30 days to begin the claims process on eBay. This process replaces the Fraud Alert process which is a) hard to find, 2) not very intuitive and 3) helps the buyer conclude that fraud has actually taken place when, in fact, it probably has not. There is no interim stage to help mitigate the “zero-to-panic” buyers feel when they believe something has gone wrong. The Item Not Received process is an on-eBay tool that helps facilitate communication between buyer and seller. The buyer may open a dispute no earlier than 7 days after transaction close – giving them time to reach out to sellers using email and/or phone. By initiating a dispute, the buyer is not filing a claim. Instead they are initiating an on-eBay communication process with the seller. The Item Not Received process then allows the seller 10 days to respond to the buyer. So, the earliest day a buyer could file a claim is day 17. If a buyer ignores all communications from the seller and goes through the process as quickly as possible, the buyer would be able to escalate to an eBay Standard Purchase Protection Program claim 17 days after the close of the transaction. The eBay Standard Purchase Protection Program process then informs the buyer that it may take 2 weeks for an eBay claims administrator to contact them. In such cases, the first Claims Administrator contact would be 31 days, or just longer than the 30 days specified by the Federal Trade Commission. In most cases, no penalty is likely to be levied against a seller until an eBay Claims Administrator is engaged with the claim. We hope this helps to clarify some of the concerns. Thanks, Larry & Colin Trust & Safety
  14. The new "Item Not received" in 7 day dispute will be enforced no matter were the item is sent (international included). A Pink is a ebay employee that will post on a ebay message board, they have a Pink highlighted header so they have become known as pinks
  15. Using Bidpay supposedly doesn't make a difference. They probably can't retrieve the funds though, in which case they just suspend your account The reason for only using bidpay and not having a CC on file is so they cant take the funds without my OK that way I retain some control over how much they can screw me for
  16. Come January I will be strictly BidPay (NO PayPal) and will remove my CC from my automatic pay ebay fee option. Hopefully enough sellers will do the same and ebay will see that there new attempt to get all sellers to only use PayPal will have had the opposite effect FND
  17. Actually if you read the ebay message boards about this the pinks have said the buyer can file the dispute even if they have not even sent the payment
  18. and If you think this is bad wait for the begining of the year when ebay starts there new ***Coming in January: Item Not Received Process*** Were Buyers will have the opportunity to file a dispute 7 days after auction ends if the item is not received. Does not matter what type of payment was used or destination. FND
  19. Buyer using Feedback as email Someone posted about this guy on another board but since he seems to buy SEGA Genesis games I thought I should give other sellers a heads up In case they wanted to block the buyer He/She uses the feedback system as email beware, Here is the link for the feedback left http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...&item=-1&de=off
  20. Did you at least get the 400.00 or did they cancel the transaction also ? You would think they would let you know about the possibility of freezing your account if you take xxx amount out of the ATM, instead they let you find out the hard way and then force you to figure out how to fix it, which when dealing with Paypal could be next to impossible at times. ebay/paypal, there has to be a better way !

  22. Listed my boxed originally sealed one yesterday. Shameful plug for my auction but I could not resist http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...me=STRK:MESE:IT fnd
  23. Sorry but no the old registered users are not in the data base. I would have added those names to the list of users but since this is a real time auction and it uses passwords that are generated by random during registration, which by the way I cannot access, I would have no way of knowing if they were going to the correct account mainly because no one is expecting the password/email and they would not know if it was not received As for the reason I am running it as an Auction rather than just selling them Outright is two fold, first I really don't know what the value of these are anymore as the price has gone down since ebay no longer allows them, Second if I just post them with a sell price I am leaving myself open to selling them to cheap or getting flamed for asking to much, So it seems much easier to let the interested party's decide the value. FND
  24. No I have not compared the ROM'S BTW typing in a email and mailing address is't really that hard FND
