ShadowPaladin V1.0 Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 I've got an attic full of RPGs, PC games, and other assorted game stuff. In fact the attic is full to bursting with it all. Now realistically I'm never goint to play any of this stuff again. But it's still kinda hard to let go of it all. So I need some encouragement to sell my stuff (and the stuff stored at my parents house). 'cause with another baby on the way and two already we could really use the extra space. I'm also having the same problem letting go of my RX-8 even though I havnt driven it for a month. I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now.

This packrat got rid of tons of stuff last year using the rule 'If I haven't used it or even looked for it in two years, out it goes.' However ... if you look at a game and remember it with a fond smile, KEEP it. Some classics are really tough to find, if you become obsessed about playing them again; not to mention that your kids might enjoy them when they get old enough--mine did.

ShadowPaladin V1.0 Posted July 5, 2005 Author Share Posted July 5, 2005 Do tell. What is in that collection of yours? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well some highlights. Every 1st ed book ever released for D&D Every 2nd ed book ever released for D&D Warhammer in all incarnations with all the sourcebooks Board Games such as , Dragon Hunt and Talisman (and expansions). Star Wars WEG rules expansions and collectable minatures for the rebels and empire. Fallout 1&2 PST collectors edtion , book and guide. All the D&D games released by interplay including decent to undermountain and Dragon Dice ( :"> ) The entire Lucas Arts adventure line up of Monkey Island , Grim Fandango, Full Throttle etc. Going to stop now If I carry on I wont want to sell the things again.. Funny I never figured myself for the sentimental type I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now.

Or my soul eternally damned to a random japanese hell after I die. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have no idea. I wasnt going to think about how to sell them until I could actually bring myself to sell them. Thats just the tip of the ice burg really. Used to get stuff at cost so I have a lot of stuff. Ebay seems a likely place for selling stuff but I've never made use of it. I'd need to set aside a week or two too get everything down and inventory it too. I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now.

ShadowPaladin V1.0 Posted July 5, 2005 Author Share Posted July 5, 2005 I hope they still work. We have always had nice attics, the sort you could have a bedroom in rather than the dank smelly and wet kind. I go up there occasionally to see if I can find my original copies of Vandal Hearts but there is so much stuff (that isnt organised) every expedition thus far has failed. I did find Suikoden I &II though, but they are not for sale I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now.

Musopticon? Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 "Talisman" I'd buy that, among other things, but have no idea how to pay.

Diogo Ribeiro Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 I'm primarilly interested in that Torment deal, SP, so if you want we can discuss prices and all that. I do want to get my hands on several LucasArts games, but they are a lesser priority because I played several already and only want the games on my software library for collecting purposes.

ShadowPaladin V1.0 Posted July 5, 2005 Author Share Posted July 5, 2005 Oh yes the NES version of ShadowRun too. No longer have the machine to run it. I'm definately going to make plans ( ) to sort everything out and inventory it I think that will make it easier to sell and I can get my sentimentality out of the way while doing the inventory and sorting through it all.

You might also get a lot more for them as a job lot. But right now you'll get only what people are prepared to pay to play with them, which won't be nearly as much as a "collector" will pay, when they are rare.

Well-played, not much after-looked? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It should range from good to excellent condition. I've always taken good care of my RPG/Games stuff. Before I can sort it all out I need to clear one of the bedrooms. Since I have to decorate new kids room it might work out well because I can use it for tempory storage. The attics not the most comfortable place for doing inventory. I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now.
