Hi Gene,

welcome to the board :D

Note: just for the boxes and manuals ... presumably the high bidder will include discs to the boxes and offer the games to peterolafson and/or mshortland :roll:

Short answer: Apart from 2 or 3 titles, yes. More info: take a look at our rarity system please ...

Welcome Gene!

I think it has to do with the following equation:
sex + first commercial erotic game = $$$

Any mathematicians around to confirm this?

The guide lists Softporn, Wizard and Mission Asteroid as R8. Ah, so that explains the price :lol: I am sure the most surprised person on the planet is the seller. Lets call it YMEI. I wonder what happened to the software also.

Ateri Frog- Sorry about the delay on the magazines. :oops: Its only been six months. :) Anyway, its been a crazy year for me as far as work and travel goes. Right now, I am in Russia till the end of the month. The mags I found sit in my office in Houston ready to ship. I just have to track down the 1980 issues when I return.


Matterhorn- Thought about asking you to do the wire transfer for me, but since you bid, it seemed a bit awkward!
