I have the same worries and already contacted Al by email last week about this. My parcel has vanished from the tracking page 30 days ago. After about 6 weeks Boulder Dash finally has arrived! And it even works, although it was packaged together with 3 magnets. I had to pick it up at my nearest post office and pay 17.41EUR taxes. I'll reserve a whole evening for playing it this week. Thanks to Al, Andrew and Thomas for their efforts, be it programming or doing the logistics.

The last time I heard from my package was when it arrived at a USPS sort facility in Chicago 10 days ago. Should be arriving in Germany now any time soon! Or maybe it's at customs and they are playing it already...

Even I am getting impatient after half a year of waiting...

Fahr doch einmal mal hin, dann weisst du, was es ist. Ich habe mich jedenfalls am Samstag in die Schlange am Einlaß eingereiht (ca. 200 Leute vor mir), habe alte Bekannte von der Retrobeurs in Apeldoorn vor 2 Monaten wiedergetroffen, u.a. Mr. Atari, habe meine Atari 2600/7800/XE Spiele-Sammlung weiter aufgestockt und mich gewundert, wie schlecht es um die Körperpflege mancher Mitmenschen mit ähnlichem Hobby bestellt ist

Thanks for pointing this out, but yes, I had seen that. A bit less means several 100% less in this case. Must have been a lucky day for VidGameKing back then What would be reasonably priced in your opinion?

Wow, for $5. I've been trying to get one for quite some time, but they sell for no less than 40 Euro usually :/ and I hesitated to pay that much so far.

I don't think it's the wrong thread. But one more cable connected to your Atari won't do any harm

I discover great 8-bit projects every day. Great work and now I'll follow this thread. I don't want to miss the day when pre-orders are possible.

That was pretty fast. Packages within Germany sometimes take longer. I hope they are as you expected.

The T-handle Space monster and the football game are still left. I'll put them on ebay now, as I didn't get any requests for them from you or those who asked didn't get back to me. Thanks for your interest.

I can see that there was a label attached to the end where the LEDs stick out, but it's gone now. The LEDs don't light up, when switching the console on. I have no idea whether this is a custom job. I can provide more detailed pictures of the cartridge if you want. Overall I'm overwhelmed by the interest in all four of these cartridges. I guess I'll collect incoming messages for a week or so and then let your offers decide who gets what. I'd rather give them to someone here at AtariAge then selling them on eBay. Now I need to sleep.

I openend another post by accident and there's the link to the pictures. But here it is too: Got about 15 PMs already, most of them from the U.S. of course. So please take into account that insured shipping costs would be around $20 from Germany! Won't send uninsured. If you are interested in one or more of the carts, please let me know your offer in your PM.

I found a funvision t-handle space monster cartridge (without the label though) at a fleamarket. It is PAL (of course). It shows the funvision logo on screen.

Two weeks ago, when I was at the Retrobeurs in Apeldoorn, Netherlands, someone there offered me another HotShot Vorführcassette (I think it had number 6 on it) for 1000€. I kindly refused the offer...

Today I found some interesting cartridges I hadn't seen so far at a flea market. T-handle cartridge (missing label) "Space Monster" from funvision (American) Football from I.I. 1982, Korea, nor further info about the company dual-game cartridge "Video Computer Program" with a switch and two LEDs (which don't work for me), switchable between Slot Racers (Atari) and Freeway (Activision), is this a pirate? Racing Car (or Traffic) by home vision I don't want to keep any of them, so if anyone is interested in one or more of them, let me know.

Indeed it is. Had to pick up a package from the U.S. at the customs office this morning and pay an additional "fee" for the well-being of my country.

I just got a lot with 10 boxed, shiny new pick'n pile cartridges. All of them have the Activision logo on the back. I assume it was put there in error.

I've been looking for a PAL (B) XE game machine with the keyboard for quite some time now here in Germany. Last week I went to a retro game computer exchange in the Netherlands hoping to get one there, but nothing. Indeed I like how it looks and it's better suited for the living room than one of the XE/XL systems. So if one of you has a spare one to sell to me, please PM me.
