Any Retro Gamers Here? By Retro I mean frikkin' Prehistoric!! 5.25" Prehistoric!!!
OK, so for those who don't know this year has been a bit of an up and down one....
I changed career and had a couple of false starts but on the plus side met an amazing lady. She runs one of the charity (thrift) stores for our local hospice for the terminally ill.
Anyhoo when the last job went tits up I started volunteering there as it seemed like a great way to stay out of mischief and boost the resume...
And as you can imagine all sorts of weird and wonderful stuff gets donated.
Last week we got a real doozy. A completely mint, unused (I mean like aside from fading on the box everything is as it left the factory unused) copy of Flight of the Intruder for IBM PC on 5.25" floppy complete with a copy of the novel, instructions and the works....
The shop can't sell it, their eBay Dept won't even look at it so I grabbed it before it went into the trash.
I could list it on eBay myself but since doing some voluntary work I've become somewhat more altruistic so....
If anyone here knows anyone for whom this would be an awesome thing, or indeed if you want it for yourself, please PM me. You cover shipping but the game itself is free.
Unless we meet at some point ever in which case a beer would be nice!
