This sounds pretty interesting, and it would be great if you/we could pull this off. I guess it never hurts to try.

Call me interested for:
Moon Cresta (Childhood favourite)
Tempest
Gyruss
Frogger
Juno First
Burgertime
Bump 'n Jump
Q-Bert


If the prices are right (duh!) I would buy one or two. No cocktails though.

How does it work if we would like to buy a game from f.i. a Klov member. I mean, how should transport be arranged to the place where the container will be loaded?

Love

We will have to arrange for shipping individually, though I expect to find us an okay shipping company/partner sooner or later. I will have to ship stuff soon anyway, so I can start doing some field testing soon.

Edit: Three soons in two sentences try to beat THAT! Soon!

Looking for a container. Doesn't matter if full or empty. Doesn't matter if working or complete ... And all things Exidy!

Okay, I did set up a Goo Docs sheet for the list of games and who wants them. Anyone interested in the "project" please PM me with their email address and I will invite you to the doc.

The idea is that you can enter your stuff yourself. Lets see if this works  :ghost:

so basically it's like this:
either buy a cab from the container guy or buy a cab from someone else and have it shipped to the container guy's place, right? is there a ratio we have to look out for between "his" games and games from someone else?
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!

You are correct. And yes, the ratio question is very important. We will start discussing it this week as John was totally busy with the Australia container last week. I nevertheless want to provide John with a long list of stuff we are looking for, when I am going to ask him my questions - just to avoid extended email back and forth.

So, any more questions anyone?

Thats what the Games List looks like right now. PM me your email addresses to get invited.

Or is a stupid idea?
