Yoicks. Was $200 the reserve? I suppose if you add up the value of each individual game, boxed and complete, you can get close to $200 ... These days I really regret not getting the Sierra collections before they became very very expensive. -- Stephen On Sun, 20 Jul 2003, C.E. Forman wrote:

> Yoicks. Was $200 the reserve? Don't think so There are two bids for the same amount, which means one was placed earlier as a proxy, the second one just happened to match it exactly (so the earlier bid won). > I suppose if you add up the value of each individual game, boxed and > complete,

(sorry for the new subject line, I zapped the original e-mail without thinking about it.) Jim responded that it's worth $90-130. No way it's worth that much even if it's MS; it'd only be worth about that much if IBM and MS. Apple ][ Angelsofts show up semi-regularly on eBay and don't ever seem

I definitely have seen an Apple ][ Goldfinger on eBay, and while it was a long time ago so that I cannot recall specifics, it didn't fetch a large amount. I've never seen a for-sale copy of an Angelsoft game for IBM other than the two that I own, High Stakes and The Mist, which appear to be the m

I think $50 is high for an opened Apple ][ Goldfinger, but if he's willing to pay that much ... I've rarely had "Angelsoft" work in searching on eBay; you have to search for the titles individually, which is a pain, especially since not much ever turns up. I'm fairly certain all the Angelsoft ga
