| Deleted User | Hey desertjedi, first dibbs on these games here. Please let me know the total cost of shipping the lot (four games) for postage to Zip code 062xx. Thanks.

Status : Online | Camaroboy, my intention was to give one game to each of the first four posters who expressed an interest.
"ibs" would be limited to the earlier the post, the better the chance of getting the game you want. Of course, if no one else expresses interest...
For anyone interested in checking my ebay feedback because of the postage money involved, the username to inquire upon is Chiles4, my older and previous handle.
Priority Mail postage to anywhere in the US (I'm pretty certain) is $4.80. First Class is more weight dependent and might be $3.50, not sure of exact amount.
Camaro, I'd appreciate it if you posted the ordered priority list based on which games you want the most.

| Deleted User | In this case my first choice would be Obsidian.
Due to my personal interest in adventure games, that's my first choice. Lighthouse would probably be the second. As for the shipping cost of $4.80 for the first item, that seems reasonable, although a bit on the high side. First class is better. As for the other games, I'm still interested. Guess I'll have to wait till tomorrow till you decide on this issue.

Status : Online | These were fun games...I think I saw Morpheus on (resale) Amazon for over $50
LightHouse was one of the first smooth colour adventure games I played. No jaggy, blocky pixels.
I think 7th Guest and Myst were out before(?), but I didn't get them until later.
At the time, it was amazing. The sounds, the colourful drawings, and
the girl that talked forever...my CD drive cost $400+

Status : Online | I did some ebay research on these games - both current and completed listings - and it turned out that you couldn't give them away. There was nothing worth listing.
I'd rather that someone actually enjoy these games than have them end up in the trash.

Very nice of you to offer.

Status : Online | Camaraboy has Obsidian (Halcyon, see above and pick another)
K515 has Morpheus
PMs going out to both.
I still have Qin and Lighthouse available.
First Class is probably best. I just ordered two games with FCM and they came in two days!

I agree. Consider yourself next on the list when I'm through one way or another. It's a shame that more people don't do this, especially with the older games. Funny though, there's a place on the forum specifically designated for such transactions but is sadly ignored for some reason.

Status : Offline | desertjedi, I snail mailed you a personal check for $2.77 this afternoon. What condition is the game in? Is the manual included?

Yeah, our trade thread is packed with eBayers advertising. I think if I have some games to give away here, I'll do it in the main forum, and choose names out of a hat from those who posted a desire for the games. I don't like this first-to-jump-in stuff. Still, sharing and passing these around, particularly when they are no longer for sale, is great, if possible.

Status : Offline | Morpheus arrived today. I see it has 3 discs, a manual, and after checking each disc, I see that all of the discs are clean and in excellent condition - excellent! Thanks a whole bunch, Desertjedi!
