phaxda's Blog - Awesome Haul

[RSS Bot]

I had an excellent Saturday drive out to the country to meet up with a guy who had a ton of Atari goodies. A friend pointed me to this guy's craigslist ad because he knew the seller (who had earlier tried to sell him the stuff), but when I called earlier this week the seller explained that he had already sold most of the goodies through another ad. Bummer. But then he emailed me later and said he had found a box of books and other Atari stuff and I could have it for $20. Just a couple of grainy pictures, but I went for it.

 

Showed up at about 10 this morning and WOW. First of all, he had a box full of old 400s and a bunch of other nice stuff waiting for the other guy, so I drooled over that and had evil thought of offering him some cash for some of it but a deal is a deal and I respect other people's hauls. Plus, mine was a pretty good deal too: a bunch of books, a 410 recorder with manual, a few ST programs, 8-bit EPROMS and boards, four 400 replacement keyboards, these...
