+orpheuswaking Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 Sadly these are all games I am also looking for. But I can tell you I've seen Plundered Hearts in person, unfortunately the person wanted way more than I could afford at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+orpheuswaking Posted November 3, 2010 Share Posted November 3, 2010 No problem, it was the last a8 Infocom title produced. as an adventure I didn't like it very much but for a collection it's going to fetch a higher price than it's fun factor.

manopac Posted May 28, 2011 Author Share Posted May 28, 2011 was able to remove a good bit from the list :-) still looking for the rest ... updated again after a long time ... lots of items removed, but even more added ... PM me if you have anything and want to part with it :-) (would be a REALLY good price for Plundered Hearts !!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 The A8 version of Plundered Hearts is really rare as it was the last Infocom title they released for the system (as was previously mentioned). I've seen it on ebay from time to time, but it usually went for $100 or more. Thankfully I collect Infocom titles for the Apple II. Much easier to find...

manopac Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 If I get one for $100 I consider myself lucky ... if anyone here has one for sale, I would be happy to pay even a bit more than that ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+davidcalgary29 Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 May I ask how much you paid for Suspended? I've never seen the mask release for the A8. Hm, I was looking for Plundered Hearts myself a few years ago, and seem to recall that they were going for about 50 bucks at the time. I had no idea that they were that rare!

Atari8bitCarts Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 No, you may not A great find in a collection stored for 25+ years. BUt looking for trades, for to sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+davidcalgary29 Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I'll just let my imagination go wild, then. I believe that mask releases having been selling in the range of $500 for the C64 on eBay lately, so it's a very special find. Do you have the spacecraft packaging for Starcross? That's another one that I haven't seen for the A8 since about 1985 at a game store in South Florida. The last copy that I saw on eBay was for CP/M systems. Can you give us a few pictures of your Infocom collection (it sounds like it's now complete), complete with 'feelies'? I'd love to see an entire grouping. Ian Chadwick once wrote me that one of the highlights of being active in the A8 scene in the '80s was being invited to one of Infocom's Hallowe'en parties. Those truly must have been a blast to attend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am only collecting the non-folio-editions (i.e. the gray boxes) - I decided for myself that the folio's are out of my price range :-) Edited July 17, 2012 by manopac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari8bitCarts Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Someone might have dibs on both at the moment. I'll see what they do first then let you know. I don't collect disks, but would like to use them for A8 cartridge trading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
