RE: [SWCollect] Sierra/Lucas/Tolkien/Ultima/ADD/SSI - info and questions
Well that's why I used famous betweeen inverted commas :) I just wanted to point that, as far as I know, KIXX was unique in that regard. Games without copy protection are useful for WHDLoad users. Besides, it's true that being famous doesn't mean it sells for a lot on eBay. Unless it is auctioned with the label RARE! of course :D -- Pedro R. Quaresma Salvador Caetano IMVT Div.

[SWCollect] SWCollect] Sierra complete software collector's guide - rarities and all
I've updated my Sierra action/arcade/educational/progs/adventure- collecting page a lot recently;includeds f.ex. many On-Line Systems/SierraVision (mini) coversnot to be seen anywhere else on net: http://koti.mbnet.fi/psychic/_eng_collecting_sierra3.html It's probably the most complete list of everything (software)published by Sierra at the moment in the net but stillit's still very much incomplete. Any titles, corrections and pictures; even as lo-quality as you have;etc. are most welcome. F.ex. I'm not sure about was Frogger really released in a Sierra gray box,orwas the picture only a mock-up. If someone knows; was it a flip box or one-piece box? And these releases aren't clear to me;On-Line Systems / Sierra On-Line / Sierra On-Line Inc. / Sierra(=what type of cover logo) and don't know if someversions even exist; the years may or may not be accurate: - Bop-A-Pet (??) 1982- Cubeit (?? On-Line Systems ??) 1982 - End Game (??) 198? - River Patrol (was there a SierraVision-release? Or only by TigerVision?)- Stunt Flyer (?? On-Line Systems ??) 1980 (this has a 1985 Sierra On-Line Inc. release, but I saw mention about something like this kind of release from somewhere)- WallWar (?? On-Line Systems ??) 1980 You can answer even if you know what type of games these are. Was Pest Patrol a SierraVision-release? Thanks,- Jukka -- Synchronic Web- http://koti.mbnet.fi/psychic/ f.ex. collecting pages: oldadventure/RPG/other games (Sierra/Lucas/Tolkien/Ultima/ADD/SSI, etc.), The Lord of the Rings -comics, vintage Walt Disney Home Video rentals, etc., amarket place (trade/buy old computer games), my ambient/medieval/trance music in MP3, my fantasy art, and beyond!
[SWCollect] Zork Trilogy
I guess the Zork Trilogy is as valuable as the Suspended Mask now :rolleyes: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=3081032440 .. and to think I only paid maybe $20 for a complete Zork Trilogya fewmonths ago on eBay and this one had the Zorkmid still in a little baggie.
Re: [SWCollect] Zork Trilogy
I'm not an expert on Infocom-games and their rarities(I have a few, like Zork Trilogy too though it's incomplete)but that's obviously overboard.It only needs two interested bidders at a given (usually impulsive) moment. But even that being an exception the eBay-prices for (wanted) vintage software get crazier (well, higher) by the day. - Jukka -- http://koti.mbnet.fi/~psychic/ - Synchronic Web - Original Message - From: Freddie Bingham To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 28, 2004 2:12 AM Subject: [SWCollect] Zork Trilogy I guess the Zork Trilogy is as valuable as the Suspended Mask now :rolleyes: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=3081032440 .. and to think I only paid maybe $20 for a complete Zork Trilogya fewmonths ago on eBay and this one had the Zorkmid still in a little baggie.
Re: [SWCollect] Zork Trilogy
I've heard a couple of reports of them exceeding $100. Never with 8 days still to go on the auction, though. Be interesting to see if this gets any snipes. - Original Message - From: Freddie Bingham To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 27, 2004 6:12 PM Subject: [SWCollect] Zork Trilogy I guess the Zork Trilogy is as valuable as the Suspended Mask now :rolleyes: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=3081032440 .. and to think I only paid maybe $20 for a complete Zork Trilogya fewmonths ago on eBay and this one had the Zorkmid still in a little baggie.
