CTAtari42 Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Has anyone ordered a copy of Actionauts recently? I saw that the game was still listed as available on Rob Fulops website so I bought one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTAtari42 Posted October 2, 2016 Author Share Posted October 2, 2016 From Rob Fulops site on the Actionauts page. I'm hoping it's still available since I paid the 89 and was charged to my card Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Teams Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Please let us know what, if anything, arrives (cart, manual, box etc). Do you have a link to where you ordered from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+sramirez2008 Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Me too. Please keep us updated on your purchase. Sounds like Rob can expect to sell a couple more copies. I know I'd like one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maiki Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Perhaps, the Atari Age could overtake the remaining copies to sell? But that price... I don't know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Thought the original 250 were sold out, but might just be he has a few left over? Or the site hasn't been updated and you just sent your money to oblivion. Has happened to me before (not in this example of course), so hope that's not the case!!

+sramirez2008 Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Lets keep the faith. Hopefully you will hear back soon and we can all place on order for the remaining carts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supergun Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 I couldn't get into the game at all. IMHO, it's the only game of his I don't like. Even Cubicolor is much more enjoyable to me. I bought one of the originals, boxed & signed by him and all that hype. Not sure if the rom was ever dumped, but if yes, then I'd gladly sell it to someone who wants an original & just build my own loose cart.

Foxsolo2000 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 I hope my money didn't go to oblivion... Rob is just a very busy man but he will answer you eventually. I messaged him twice in the past and he kindly answered my questions but it did take a little bit of time so be patient. He is a great guy and once he finds the time he will reply.

CTAtari42 Posted October 3, 2016 Author Share Posted October 3, 2016 Ok. Good to know. I will continue to be patient. I ordered on September 24th so hopefully I hear something soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTAtari42 Posted October 8, 2016 Author Share Posted October 8, 2016 Well, still no word on shipment or a reply. Guess I will have to suck this up as a loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxsolo2000 Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Well, still no word on shipment or a reply. Guess I will have to suck this up as a loss. If you paid via paypal you can always get your money back. Like I said he is just a very busy guy or perhaps he has forgotten all about his site. Either way give him the benefit of the doubt and get a refund from paypal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob fulop Posted November 6, 2016 Share Posted November 6, 2016 I think this issue has been dealt with. The problem was my website was still sending everything related to Actionauts to my prior email address , which I abandoned early this year due to the usual reasons. So I only was going to check my old address once a month or so, and last month there was this person who ordered an Actionauts and thought he was dealing with Walmart.com and not some bumbling older father of a rambunctious two year old, the very guy who took lessons from Mister Magoo about how to do PayPal mail order sales. So I got involved in trying to extricate myself from these three layers of PayPal Kangaroo Court, where I was sent to in order to resolve the issue after a complaint was filed. So many messages, omg. And that took like a week, I had never been in the Pay Pal Vendor Prison before, I tried to resolve, since I wanted to complete transaction only after the PayPal police had cleared my name from such a disgrace. So finally I just refunded the sale -took three times - so dunno how many refunds were awarded - anyway it should all be okay now. Sorry about the person who never received a cart - it's here if you want it. To the person/people that mention the Actionauts game isn't as fun as some of my others - well - there was a reason I stopped working on the piece midway thru development - if you look at anything unreleased from any author - musician - filmmaker - anything unreleased/unfinished is likely going to not be as "good" as their best stuff. That's why the unreleased work was never released it in the first place. The author didn't think it was worth releasing. Later, if there becomes a fan /collectors market, some people are very excited to see these sorts of things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
