  1. I managed to buy a CIB copy last year (not sealed though), and it's nice to learn the background history - thanks for making this available, ferghead
  2. I bought the G7000 and collected all PAL releases just to annoy ccc---. Does that count?
  3. Thanks for offering these again - ordered.
  4. BBWW, Piggy Bank was worth every Penny, as it is a great fun game in my opinion. But unfortunately, my continous requests for a box fell on deaf ears, and believe me, I did try to get one. Seems, it wasn't sold to everybody... This is what was pissing me off
  5. You just have to cut loose. See, the Intellivision is just one of several of my retro gaming collections and I didn't have the console when I was a kid, so I also have no psychological bond attached with it, contrary to the Atari 2600 and some other consoles though. When a few homebrewers decide to go that way and make obtaining a complete collection (for the hardcore collectors that want to) an elitist hobby, then so be it. And I'm not even speaking about the money it needs to get all the releases, as in my case, I bought heavily inflated prices for Blix and Piggy when there even was the chance to obtain a copy due to their limited release numbers. One even had to attend PRGE in person to obtain them. Am I angry about the people, who sold them to me at overinflated prices, when they saw how much demand is for these games and they could make a quick buck from the completists? No, because I thought, I absolutely would need them and I didn't care, because money is of no concern to me. My concern was availability and the chance to even get one of these releases, which was just too time consuming and too much a hassle. I'm sure, my bid here will be head into oblivion pretty soon. And so last year, I decided to no longer participate in this game to be an elitist complete collector.
  6. I see, that's why my requests sent in April and May 2016 to the1hatman about boxes for Blix and Piggy Bank are still sitting unanswered in my messenger box here on AtariAge. With that in mind, my decision to stop buying all and everything homebrew for the Inty last year, seems like the best one made. As I wasn't very active in 2016 due to too much work and family time, I missed stuff left and right, and bought all games now that sound fun to play, like Gosub and surely Rev's releases (when they arrive). Thus said I won't even bother to raise my bid here for this boxed release and my complete Inty homebrew collection (one of each ever released) ends 2016. And boy, I have no bad feelings about that
  7. Arrived today fast and in perfect condition - thanks, Phil
  8. Since finding one in "the wild" is ruled out for the places we live in, eBay is still your best friend on Spiker, I suppose. I will also keep my eyes open!
  9. @Vectrexian Dug it out. Will get pictures to you in a PM later.
  10. Arrived here, too. Thanks for a neat product and for fast shipping.
  11. Super Cobra wants to fly in my collection
  12. No chance They may be found on eBay from time to time. You know the going rate. They won't come cheaper in good condition. Sssssimple as that.
