littleman jack Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 It appears that Video61, Lance's excellent shop for all things Atari 8-bit, might be closed. Is anyone in the area in Minnesota? Lance had been doing physical therapy after a car accident and working intermittently. It appears he might be closed. The phone is giving a non-stop busy signal and the email address no longer works. Anyone know if he's okay? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilsaluki Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 The last time I ordered cart from him he was in therapy, but filled my orders rather smartly (quick). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littleman jack Posted March 31, 2020 Author Share Posted March 31, 2020 I'll try the other address. Thanks gilsaluki! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mclaneinc Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 I don't know how old the message is but on the main page it says he's been in an accident at some point.. I would not expect immediate responses after that sort of message.. Of course we all wish Lance the best... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I briefly chatted with him via email last year, and he was still doing physical therapy but progressing and sounding upbeat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voxel Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 I hope he makes a good recovery. He made time to respond to my emails, and was kind enough not to dismiss my questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 thought that accident was long ago, I hope we don't end up with a million v61 threads about his address, the web site, his phone, his product and on and on. This one should suffice and I haven't had an issue seeing his website... or any other problems for that matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That message has been on the site for a few years now, at least three. I haven't talked to Lance since last summer though, so I don't know anything current. Pete seems to have completely disappeared from Facebook, so I can't ask him either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littleman jack Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 I just got a reply from Lance via email. All is well. He's still doing business and he is feeling pretty well. Hurray! 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunstar Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 The phone for V61 has been off for years because Lance, feeling better or not can't sit by it all day. He accepts orders via e-mail only, but will get back to you promptly. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
