Atari_scotland Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Folks, I'm doing some clearing and want to donate my (working!) Atari STE and 60± games to a good home where they'll be made use of, rather than dumped... Are there any good websites or stores that take old kit? Or would any of you be interested? Happy to send for this willing to pay post and packaging. Should note, I'm UK-based. Tips welcome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Payne Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I think you would find many people very happy to give your 520 and games a home. Just wait a very short moment and this post will blow up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy to send for this willing to pay post and packaging. Should note, I'm UK-based. Tips welcome! I working actively on keeping Atari ST(E) games alive. Some originals will be good as reliable sources. And STE as testing platform, and for some gaming too, of course http://atari.8bitchip.info/ http://atari.8bitchip.info/fromhd2.php http://atari.8bitchip.info/ASTGA/astgam.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMenard Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Maybe someone in europe will be interested. The main problem with the ST, unlike the Amiga, is the video output that is a bitch to work with unless you have CRTs or really old LCDs laying around. Don't get me wrong, I love the ST, but it's less supported by modern hardware hacker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pixelmischief Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 I nominate ParamoidLittleMan. His game conversions, which make games playable from hard drive and often add Falcon compatibility, have done more to keep my Atari machines fun and accessible than pretty much anything else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anzac Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Yeah, I agree. If shipping is split by several of us he can receive it for almost nothing. I’d contribute 10€ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he is the right guy to have it. Not many has done as much for the Atari ST community like he has Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari_scotland Posted September 24, 2018 Author Share Posted September 24, 2018 ParanoidMan, can you drop me a PM? Let me know rough area I would be posting to. Do you want hardware or just the floppy disks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNameOfTheGame Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 (edited) I am willing to help with shipping costs also. Let's get the final shipping costs and then go from there.
