Need help from some Australian 7800 fans

[+jeremiahjt]

I would like to get a copy of the manual for the 32 in 1 cartridge and from what I understand the cartridge was only released in Australia. I already own the cartridge, but I would like to get a manual to complete (still do not have a Tank Command) my 7800 collection. From my recollection, it has never been on eBay or any other place I have seen.

 

If any Australian collectors (or non-Australians if somebody else has one they would part with) could sell one to me or if they know where one could be located I would be greatly appreciated. I thought about posting in the Wanted section, but figured this forum would have a better chance of a postive outcome.

Well...i have it somewhere,but

no chance to copy or scan it

If you are looking for a scan there is one here at AtariAge. If you are looking for an original then eBay is probably your best bet.

Even over here in Australia you hardly ever see them, the one i have is made out of thick paper, almost bordering on being cardboard.

I have the 7800 specific release, but not the manual, yet.

I have the manual, I got it with a boxed 7800 from Australia.

You want to sell it, or are you just bragging?

[+Mitch]

No, just mentioning how I got it in case you weren't checking those auctions.

I keep an eye on eBay Australia, but not much ever shows up.

Bumping this in case any new Australian 7800 fans have showed up recently.

Yeah same - i've only ever seen the occasional pop-up as part of a console sale but generally not really outside that.

Finally found one on eBay from Australia and bought it.  Spent $100 on it, which is way too much, but I was tired of searching for it.

 

It is much smaller than I imagined.  It is only a little bit taller than a regular manual.  I knew it was thin when folded up, but it is thinner than I imagined also.

 

Oh well, happy to have this in my collection and off of my want list.  Now I can focus on getting a complete copy of Tank Command to finish my 7800 retail set.

I saw that one pop up, I'm glad you were able to snag it.

Thanks. I actually offered to buy the manual twice when he had everything together in one package. I do not know for sure, but me offering for just the 32-in-1 manual might have prompted him to split everything up.
