+Random Terrain Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Done. I hope that helps get you closer to a Harmony Cart. Thanks. I guess I should ask what the etiquette is. When somebody donates, is it OK to post the amount here since it will probably be easy for people to figure out who donated which amount? If people want it to be anonymous, it won't be that way for long if I post the amount right after they post here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess if the person asks to be anonymous you should respect that but if they say nothing then I guess it is up to you rather or not you keep them anonymous. The important thing is that you express how thankful you are but rather it is a public or private thank you would be up to you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody has asked yet, so I'm happy to report that I got a donation of 80 bucks tonight. I wonder who that's from? Unless the price has been raised again, 5 bucks plus 80 bucks should be enough to get a Harmony cart. Thanks for the Harmony cart donations. Now I'll be able to quickly and easily test my works in progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schizophretard Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 It must have been John Titor. Anyway, order now and get to testing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlowCoder Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 More of a gamer here, than a collector. I go by the thought that overall, the common games were common for a reason ... they were good, or at least better than the less common ones. Therefore, unless there was a game that has special meaning to me, I would prefer to hit a cache of commons than spend my money on one expensive one.

My Harmony cart came in the mail today (I just brought it in the house). Thanks again for the donations. It would have been months or maybe even some time in 2012 before I could have gotten one.

+RichG1972 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Paid $45 for Battlezone new back in way-back. Back when I lived in Delaware in the summer of 1986-87 at the Kay-Bee Toy & Hobby in the Rehoboth Mall I bought an Activision Starmaster cartridge for roughly $14.99 and a QuickShot II joystick the same day for another $15, previous to that at Kmart my father bought KRULL and Mountain King for me because I had done some odd jobs for him back in 1983 in the summer and they cost me about $9.95 each (oddly enough just a few days before the living room ceiling in the apartment caved in). Those were my most expensive cartridges, the rest were Christmas and Birthday gifts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is screaming because the girl keeps smashing the joystick against his hand every time the boy wins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animan Posted June 28, 2011 Share Posted June 28, 2011 $25 for Falldown on the AA store. Good game . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necron99 Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 besides the couple dozen games I've bought from AA Store, I payed $35 for Demolition Herby quite a few years back, but I bought it with a bunch of other commons so I was offered free shipping. technically $35 is what I agreed to pay for it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayhem Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 Overall I paid just over a grand for Eli's Ladder, but I sold it for a few hundred more in the end. Of the cartridges I still own, the most I paid for any of them was the bare board complete Magicard (with manual, overlays etc), ran me around $700 iirc. I think prices on that have gone up a bit in the eight years or so since I acquired it heh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cebus Capucinis Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 I paid $234 or so for a Starpath Supercharger on eBay when I first joined here.

Stan Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I believe I paid around $90 for a loose, great condition Stronghold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pis Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 30 euros for a loose PAL miner 2049er vol 2 in crap condition. I was very impatient when i first started collecting for the 2600, and focused way to much on what others considered rare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Recycled Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I'm thinking if I paid $30(ish) for Pac Man back in '81; roughly adjusted for inflation in 2011 dollars...that would be around $74.58. That's the most I've ever spent on a video game, period. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
