m-crew Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 How much of that stuff was in the box at the very beginning? For that matter, how long did the original box last? I think it was a double-walled box, so I'm kind of curious how long it survived before having to be replaced. ..Al Not sure Albert , but there is really nothing in there now just nick knacks, stickers, buttons , overlays, its what you see, besides what I will be shipping out... Which is what freewheel put in and mr_intv put in. I was going to add a few French/Canadian variant's. but still not much.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m-crew Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 That's still a pretty large box, although I can't tell how long it is from that shot. ..Al lol not that large, but there was not much in it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_intv Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I know HJ pulled a lot of the commons and such out before he sent it to me. Which is fine, when it came to me he had added a few things (Digiplay carts and a Intv II base Console) the console is now with me.....as far as any Cib games, there were none inside when I received it.....

freewheel Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 So, I'm not sure when it was added, but I can't believe no one took the whiskey. Nor that it made it across the border, lol. Personally, I took a few cool things out of there, including a broken Triple Challenge cart that I'm going to try to resurrect (not sure if it's just a dead solder joint or what). I tried to add some good stuff without just dumping extra Night Stalkers, so I hope it's appreciated by the last couple of people. But yeah, we kinda cleared it out. It's really too bad that shipping has gotten so out of hand, because I like the idea of seeing a bunch of CIB+loose games, and adding/upgrading to my collection - it's just not practical to ship 20 lbs every time. Ah well. Perhaps we should co-ordinate cross-border shipping at PRGE. It takes 3 years to move this thing around anyway, so we certainly can cross a few countries that way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humblejack Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 ????? While I was typing Steve posted the same info I was going to put out. By the time I had discoverd the error of my ways you must have got to my post while I was editing it to say it was OBE. Nice typing with you anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Posted January 18, 2018 Author Share Posted January 18, 2018 Shipments from the grab bag are on there way to both destinations.., Cheers Who. Where. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m-crew Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Who. Where. What I shipped was only thing worth shipping to who the last three agreed to and are aware of.. The rest of it has been put to pasture in a Canadian Frozen Corn Field.... Which what it cost me ship , I will need that ounce of whiskey to make me forget... lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m-crew Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Who. Where. If you want the that stuff in the picture you are welcome let me know and I will gather it up for you.. I will even add what I was going to put in. I have been truthful and honest in what was in the grab bag. What you see, is what was in the bag, except for the few things I shipped out today. If the guys that I shipped the items to want to disclose who they are they can . All good up to them.. So let me know if you want that stuff because that's all it is.. I don't know what was in that box before it got to me. But it is what it is and I do not want people thinking im trying to hoard all the Valuable items in it.. Really I am not trying to pull any con on anyone.. So if I have to I will ship this back to the states. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m-crew Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Not the Rye because I needed a shot after all this explaining.... LMAO!! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_intv Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Ya it was time for this to be put to bed until a future grab bag/box/crate is put forth. I cant speak for anyone but I know HJ added a few things to make it worth sending across the border to myself. If it wasnt for him it could have been buried in the Colorado mountains someplace. I am in no means sour that this version has been laid to rest because Im certain Humblejack, Freewheel, m-crew and myself would all agree the the contents inside was dieing a rapid death. Its all good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted January 18, 2018 Author Share Posted January 18, 2018 Nah. Was just checking for sure if this current round of grab bag was truly over. Overall was everyone happy with it? Was it worth the effort? Who is interested in continuing it? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Should we try a paperwork/catalog/manual/overlay grab bag? It could help folks complete games whilst keep the shipping light. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freewheel Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Should we try a paperwork/catalog/manual/overlay grab bag? It could help folks complete games whilst keep the shipping light. Just a thought. Not a bad idea. I liked the random stuff that was in there, but I can see how it gets silly to keep spending the cost of shipping to send a huge box around 20 times.

I liked the random stuff that was in there, but I can see how it gets silly to keep spending the cost of shipping to send a huge box around 20 times. I never participated because I'm not a collector/hoarder but how about a prge 2018 mystery box? Everyone brings some stuff to prge, say 3 to 5 things, it all gets put in a box the first morning, then numbers are drawn, then gets each person gets to pull 3 to 5...
