Ransom Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 I'm putting my bid in at one million dollars for the whole thing. You do accept Monopoly money, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the 5th ghost Posted March 5, 2009 Author Share Posted March 5, 2009 The collection has been sold! I can't thank everyone enough for the sincere concern, kind words and generous offers. I had hoped to help out as many folks as possible, but in the end I couldn't turn down the offer I got. I apologize to those that were after certain pieces, please understand. (I will continue to be on the lookout ) Take care everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianoid Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Wonder strikes again! Or was that Atari2600.com? Seriously, that's an awesome score. I would love to know how much it sold for, but that's priveledged info, I'm sure. Congrats on getting rid of your stuff in one shot, but I'm sorry it had to go!

pinball22 Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Was it Marco? Did he buy the whole thing just to get the CIB Checkers? Congrats on getting it all sold for a price you like, even if it means I don't get to adopt any of that beautiful Sears stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nonner242 Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Nice! I wish I could get someone to buy just 1 of my system collections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the.golden.ax Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 The only thing I want to know is, if you could afford to have it all back, would you? If so, I wish you all the luck in the world that it comes back even better than it was. AX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ransom Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I'm glad you were able to get it sold in a relatively convenient way! But I'm sad so many of us missed out on the nice carts we all wish we had . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maximebeauvais Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 congrat !!! I hope that you got your price every 6 months I'm thinking about selling my atari (over 600 games) and intellivision (over 200 CIB) collection but at the end, I always keep them !!!!

Numan Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 Did you include the shelves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the 5th ghost Posted March 5, 2009 Author Share Posted March 5, 2009 Did you include the shelves? Keeping the shelves. One is built in to the wall, one is a large bookcase, the other two are just Billys from Ikea. I pull the games to the front edge of the shelf. Dups and other stuff goes behind them.

the 5th ghost Posted March 9, 2009 Author Share Posted March 9, 2009 Does this mean your leaving us ghost ? Not leaving, just no longer collecting I will keep my eyes peeled though, and if I turn up anything locally, I will post them here. So, hopefully, I'll still be able to help out those that are still collecting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
