Re: [SWCollect] Talk about boneheads...

2004-05-06 Thread Marco Thorek
I just bought Archon from them. Email communication was good and the
game arrived in time.

However, I had also bought Neuromancer and they said there was a
problem with the buy it now items and the games (they had multiple
copies) were actually already sold but Ebay automatically relisted them.

Maybe true, maybe not.

$100 for the disk to a Donkey Kong clone.  Nice.  This keeps up people  
will start selling individual games a la carte ($25 for the manual, $50

for the disk, $15 for the reference card, etc.)

WTF? I thought maybe this was shilling or something, but I see Peter Olafson
bid $350. Looks like Dan was prescient when he said about selling the games
a la carte.

RE: [SWCollect] Talk about boneheads...

2004-05-06 Thread John Romero
OH. MY. GOD.  

That's insane.

I have a complete shrinkwrapped version of Cannonball Blitz.

I happen to love Olaf Lubeck's work and CB is my favorite game of his.

But wow, I would never pay $455 for the disk and manual.  

That's it - I'm gonna put something on eBay around the week of the 17th.

[SWCollect] Ebay does it right!!

2004-05-06 Thread AvatarTom
You all know I have issues with ebay. BUT A feature, new to me at least. They have what appears to be 24 hour "live help" chat. I was able to chat with a real person at 3AM and get answer to my question immediately. GREAT :)

Re: [SWCollect] Zork question

2004-05-06 Thread C.E. Forman
 To my knowledge Zork was a word used by computer geeks at MIT for just
 about everything, as in give me that zork over there.

That's what I've read in every article about the original mainframe Zork
(Dungeon).  It's possible the MIT term derived from the Brunner novel.
