Whats the original ebay link auction? Waht did the pictures look like? that would determine how I followed up on this.

I posted earlier in this thread here, and they don't look THAT bad...

 

On ebay eBay Auction -- Item Number: 300539101384

[What's the latest Atari related thing(s) you've bought on ebay?]

Interest as in you are selling it?

Nah, I've never seen it before or since the ebay auction. The binder is fantastic, full of beautiful full color instructions, the plastic Atari hole protector is original, and I've never seen the 3 hole cassette holder either.

 

I meant for archiving the disk images, scanning the documentation.

[Name That Module]

2 options.

 

a) pay for the shipping and you can have the lot of my extra stuff for free. (Several large boxes)

 

b) I'll list all the items on ebay individually.

[New GUI for the Atari 8-bit]

10 seconds on google, found fujiboink source. It's for Atari ST (68k) but may include A8 code

 

http://www.atarimania.com/demo-atari-st-fujiboink_26082.html

 

"FujiBoink!, the bouncing rainbow fuji, is the best graphics demo START has seen on the Atari ST We have received many requests from people wanting to know just how it was done. So, we went to the source: the programming wizards at XANTH. After a little arm twisting, they agreed to relinquish their secrets. All related programs, plus source code, may be found in the FUJI.STQ folder on your START disk. Please note: FujiBoink! requires a color monitor."

And... The Atari Telelink I

[What's the latest Atari related thing(s) you've bought on ebay?]

Also, the Atari Communicator II

[What's the latest Atari related thing(s) you've bought on ebay?]

This was a while back, but I wanted to see if there is any interest in this product?

 

Atari Word Processor

[Tips/Tricks/Products Used In Restoration]

I'd definitely be interested to see the results. I have a few A8s yet to restore. A spray on stabilizer (other than polyurethane) would be great!

[How many of us have real A8 Machines?]

I'd like to get Yoomp! on an XE style cart. With a nice box and manual, too. And some ridiculous story line

[Name That Module]

It's too hit or miss buying every 800 or batch of boards that has one in it that you don't recognize. You end up with a lot of junk you'll never use that way.

I am sooo there right now.

 

*pushes over a stack of Atari 800s*

[What's the latest Atari related thing(s) you've bought on ebay?]

even though both floppy drives are shattered, i only paid $75 for the lot on ebay.

[What's the latest Atari related thing(s) you've bought on ebay?]

My latest eBay item? Atari 600XL, 1050, Atari 800 & 850, some joysticks'n'paddles. Complete disappointment...

 

Looks and smells like engine parts & tires were stored on top of this stuff. No power supplies, no redeeming parts (maybe the 850 if it works). Should I ask for a refund?

[5'25 diskettes]

I wonder if anybody is even making 1.44MB disks new, much less 360K.

 

Yep, right next to the 8-track and Vinyl factories, located on Battleship Island

[Warerat Projects]

There is an element of necromancy involved in any Atari project

 

Looking forward to resurrecting Warerat's Atari 800 to 130XE compatibility project

5 - Atari 800

4 - Atari 810

4 - Atari 410

Doubles of all the beige components

Only missing 822 and CX70

 

100+ carts

[Name That Module]

Boy I sure am glad you beat me in that auction. I could've added yet ANOTHER Atari 800 to the pile

 

<- Thread Pollution, the number one cause for smiling in an otherwise serious forum

[Poll: What do you consider the ultimate Atari-8 disk drive?]

I would ask about legal SIO speeds and the 810, but there is a quinceanera going on. Migraine city...

 

EDIT: That me in the 3rd pic @ the desk, head propped up on arm

[What to store my original carts in?]

Is that a servo box

 

Better be for a HSR-5990TG!

[Pronto is seller insane?]

Oh man! Did you guys ever save me - I was about to buy it! Whew!

 

*middle finger*

 

:) :)

 

EDIT: That is pretty ridiculous. I bet he shows up at the top of the 'Atari 800' List.

[What's the latest Atari related thing(s) you've bought on ebay?]

You can have it.

[What's the latest Atari related thing(s) you've bought on ebay?]

Ahh... much better. Got rids of the rat's nest, reworked the parallel and hardwired SIO cable

 

After & Before

 

Clearly I know how to handle a soldering iron

[What's the latest Atari related thing(s) you've bought on ebay?]

Yep, you never know when i might bid $500 on a broken MIO, or $1000 on an Atari in a knock-off foam case

 

EDIT: Maybe we need a 'Please don't bid against me' thread...
