FND Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 Well now I am really confused. I had e-mailed Dansomthin earlier and received a nice response and photo which did ease my concerns but after reading his post here I am no concerned again. Here is a copy of his reply Hi Dennis, I understand your concerns. I'm not offended.The games are owned by my friend and are quite legitimate. I will send you more picks as you requested. He doesn't have a computer and This is my 1st E-bay sale. All that aside, they are very real and he takes great condition of his collection. He just sold a very rare game at the Philly game show at the Valley Forge convention center. The game was called Eli'.s Ladder, if I'm spelling it correctly. He got a few dollars for that one. I will have him come ???? Drew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brett6400 Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 yeah, it's great that you posted the photos. you've help assuage our concerns. if you read the other posts in this forum, you can see that one quadrun auction was definitely fraudulent. if you've never sold on ebay, fyi, reserve auctions don't generally get many bids. but you obviously need to protect your carts and not sell them for $1. if they don't meet reserve and you relist them, i suggest putting no reserve but a minimum bid of whatever you require (eg, $200, $400, whatever).

RangerG Posted August 16, 2002 Share Posted August 16, 2002 Dan -- Good luck on the auctions! Please tell us how you go them. This is not to prove anything. I am just fascinated (and envious) of how people got such great games. Take care, RG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari_Never_Dies Posted August 16, 2002 Share Posted August 16, 2002 Holy Balls! man, hell just froze over, that is the most rare carts ive ever seen in a collection,i wouldnt sell those for anything.. but thats just me, and thats totally ironic that he found this mystery post, when noone has ever heard of him??? dont u think? but anyway, he has my trust, i would buy, but im saving for that big thrigt stor hit, you know that one where you drain the store of all its vintage systems for 50.00??ya... that thing... but anyway, i hope they go to good collectors, and thanks for the post dan, that takes all the doubt out, but if you can, i would take them out of that catagory, and post them in atari, then the prices will really rocket.. thats just my personal opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buyatari Posted August 16, 2002 Share Posted August 16, 2002 Hey guys. I can vouch for Dan. I bought the Eli's ladder from him at Philly Classic. I also traded/sold him a few of the carts it looks like he is now selling. Malagai Quadrun and a couple others which are less rare. I dealt wih him via mail and he was completely honest with me. You guys can trust him 100% Adam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
