Re: [SWCollect] computergamecollector

2002-09-19 Thread Alexander Zoller

I usually deplore price guides, simply because they seem to take some of
the fun out of collecting, although I believe the solution found for the
Interactive Fiction Collector's Guide (i.e. realistic maximum prices for
a game in mint sealed/opened but perfect/other condition) is a great help
and doesn't necessarily constitute fixed prices. It only suggests what
you should NOT pay in regard of the actual availability.

In any case, this new site should be very interesting, might actually
become a hub for the vintage software collectors.

Marco: thanks for the clue, rpgmerchant is the giveaway. His eBay ID is

[SWCollect] computergamecollector

2002-09-18 Thread Jim Leonard

I just saw this:

http://www.computergamecollector.com/

It seems to be the beginning of a site for software collecting news.  It's in
a pre-alpha state right now.

Best of all, they use the MobyScale!  Woohoo!  Does anyone know who runs this
site?

The first test articles are signed rpgmerchant. That somehow sounds
familiar.
