    Way to many according to my girlfriend. I'm only missing a jaguar CD in box, I have 21 arcade cabinets, the flashback systems, the plug n plays and 4 boxed computers. (I'm not a computer collector but they came with a big lot I purchased a few years back.) I've been collecting for many years and it takes time and patience unless you have enough disposable income to just buy everything regardless of cost but that takes away from the great satisfaction you get when you find things you have been searching for or when you find items in the wild. Its kinda like a lifelong treasure hunt :) Make sure you read around the forums as there are a great many experts and very knowledgeable people who are more than willing to help out and answer questions. Welcome to the addiction called collecting!! ;)

    Atari Football was a huge hit when it came out. Trackballs were new and players went nuts spinning the poop out of them.

    One of my all time favorites, I have 2 2 player and one 4 player Atari football as well as basketball, baseball and Namco's remake with official teams and players. It was one of the very first arcade machines I got when I started collecting. Its a must play!!

    That was me too! I would wake up early before school to load up Forbidden Forest or Raid on Bungling Bay on cassette and then go back to bed so it would be ready to play after breakfast. I remember having Stroker 64 and having my girlfriend play it and taking it to school on my SX-64 portable and you would have thought I had porn streaming on that little 5" monitor. Good Memories!!

    We're you and I separated at birth? In the last week, I've bought a bottle of Bulleit *and* started making my own beef jerky!

    It would appear so, I'm a big bourbon fan and my buddy makes the best I've ever had, he ran out so I picked up the Bulleit and loved it. I make Jerky as well, here in WV deer are plentiful so meat is easy to come by. Beer, Bourbon, Jerky and games makes for many a fine evening!!

    Well this doesn't do anything to boost my opinion of eBay.

     

    I feel sorry for the ripped off buyer.

     

    Most of my experiences buying and selling (more often buying) on eBay have been positive. I was on it back before it was commonly known. I only got ripped off once on some Doctor Who DVDs - turned out I got a bunch of fakes. But I was able to get my money back.

     

    Amazing how often the internet just puts a spotlight on the worst aspects of humanity.

    The internet is just like every other aspect in life, there will always be people who look to abuse or misuse things to their advantage without any care or concern for how it will affect others. I personally enjoy the feeling I get from helping others and knowing that karma exists. Although it would be rockin' to see each one of these people get what's coming them (like a YouTube for assholes) I am comforted knowing they will get it back 10 fold whether I see it or not. m/
