My new source pays off...

All right. I am not net savvy enough to insert the image here (yahoo hosts my site, and I cannot insert pics reliably into things).

I bought all of them sealed. The owner of Starland Video Games in Springfield, VA bought a bunch of stuff a while back. I walked in a few weeks ago and saw a bumper of fairly off the beaten track boxed games (ie, not from Osheas). I bought Racquetball, some M Network stuff and then asked about others. He brings out a perfect, truly 10 out of 10 Vader, that had NEVER been opened. Still has the Zayre store tags on it.

 

To make a long story short, I went in the back and saw these games. He is a business man, and also knows how hard this stuff is to find in perfect shape. These boxes are absolutely perfect. I am not sure they were ever out of the stockroom in the store. Prices are high, but the quality is great.

 

Final take: Sealed mint copies of:

Death Trap

Wall Ball

MASH

Turmoil

Porkys

Riddle of the Sphynx

Cosmic Ark

Piece o Cake

Swordquest Fireworld (dont laugh, mine looks awful )

 

Anyway, bottom line was 260 plus a POLO. He has more of most of these. The Vaders he is asking 200 each for, which is a decent price considering the shape. Might be too high for some blood, but thats cool .

 

If you want to get in touch with this guy, LMK. I'll give you his email addy.

I am glad the deal worked out okay.

They really are bee-yootiful Cassidy

 

[weeps uncontrollably at the only feeble recent find - ie. a loose copy of Mario Bros]

 

 

Well done!

[Cassidy Nolen]

Oz,

 

Mario's a good find, I have never seen one in the wild.

 

You simply have to come back! We all really miss you! Somehow, in a few day trip, you became a permanent part of our social lives!

Not a game night goes by you are not missed, man. Seriously, would love you to have you anytime you can make it. We even have bad shag tobacco and papers (trying to do the cool rolling thing, no luck with that though).

Wow I just saw a sealed Mario Bros for $3. I passed since I didnt think it was a big deal.
