Picked these up weekend before last at a retro gaming event. Quite cheap and will look nice on the shelf. Old big box games so much better than modern manual less DVD ones (or digital only!)

What's "cheap"?

[str0m]

£15 for Pinball Dreams and TK together and then £12 for Chaos Engine. Ok not pennies but low enough that I wanted them for my games room to go with my one other boxed Amiga game, Xtreme Racing

[dlfrsilver]

Got yesterday 3 games :

-James Pond 3 Operation Starfish (MFM version, the ADOS version is already preserved)
-Chart Attack (compil from Gremlin)
-Kid Gloves (Millenium)

Yesterday I bought a box of Fuji DSDD disks on eBay. Today the sale was cancelled and I received a refund. According to the seller it was going to cost US$72 to ship it to New Zealand via US mail!

That is a good price considering they're going for 3 x as much just for Chaos Engine!

Lol! I've not checked on postage but I have some NOS SONY disks in their cellophane wrapping. I use them on Amiga and they've been pretty good!

That is insane but unfortunately the state of the world right now. Postage costs, well the costs of everything to be honest, are higher than ever. Bit rubbish since the high streets are dying and using online stores are the only way you can obtain anything it seems.

On the retro purchase front, this year I have spent far far too much, especially factoring in postage!

Tiny Slug, Rygar, Turbo Sprint, Inviyya, TF1260, clear a1200 case and today arrived a perfectly mint (very tiny crease on code wheel) copy of Hillsfar.

(also picked up pacman and galaga quarter arcades on ebay for £30.00 each that looked and worked perfect)

I got the Star Wars Trilogy on disk for CPC, the individual releases that say "Star Wars Trilogy 2 other games accompany this package"

[haynor666]

Recently I ordered GOTEK frame for CPC6128. Naturally 3D printed

I do not buy too much stuff these days. Lack of space and really high prices (shipping too) for stuff I would like to buy.

[Nobby_UK]

Got this lot for £9.94 (inc postage)

You seem to get some good buys! Just 2 of those joysticks alone sell for £10+ each at least

I bought a VGA666 hat for my RPi4 so I can get that 15khz 240p out of it!

[Nobby_UK]

The 2 Amiga sticks and the Playstation pad work fine.

Need to install a Sound/Game Card to test The PC stick + pads...

The thing at the back is part of Hasbro's 1989 Flying Fighters = a noise box.

[manossg]

Got the Giana Sisters modern game, for less than a euro on GOG.

[Nobby_UK]

Abe's Odyssey & Exodus (on Steam) = 98p [gone back up now]

I see Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams - Rise of the Owlverlord = 79p was 3.69
