Don't remind me, I still have the occasional nightmare about that double-ender box.

Spike's Peak was in the best condition compared to the rest, but it still shows some wear (especially at the corners).

I think I have fallen into the collecting boxes trap. :(

Please don't tell anyone... it'll be our secret! LOL

 

(Actually I am still debating. I have around 40 or 50. Still thinking about only collecting certain companies like Sears, Parker Bros, and Activision. But... there are quite a few costly buggers in that group as well!)

It was a good month, i got many of those (Glib, Quadrun, WaterWorld, CrazyClimber, Gravitar) from a guy that needed the money (he actually re-purchased the gravitar).

 

I was fortunate enough that those games are in the best hands :D

 

Hope to get more interesting games soon, Atari is more scarce every day ...

One thing about that boxed Quadrun that's up, since when does it cost over $12.00 to ship a small box with only parcel post shipping, not even priority or overnight and that does not even include "tracking" thats an extra .75 cents? I mean as it is, that game is going to sell pretty high enough thats kind of cold hitting the buyer up with jacked up shipping price.

 

:ponder: :? :?

Oh, I wanted Ghost Manor, too, I just screwed up putting in the bid amount and the auction ended before I could bid again. No worries, I'm a patient guy, it may take a few years, but I'll find another.

CPUWIZ...I don't think you would have liked the quality of that Spike's Peak box. It was pretty much dirt cheap, but the box had a lot of issues. I guess it would be a space filler in your collection though.

Spike's Peak was in the best condition out of the others I got, and while it isn't museum quality, the few dings on the corners are just evidence of normal wear, and cosmetically the rest of the box is unblemished.
