"The International Video Game Auction House’s (IVGAH) mission is to promote and preserve the heritage of gaming through the creation of a vibrant marketplace for unique gaming items.
Welcome to a new way to buy and sell unique items related to the history and culture of video game playing. While there are auction sites where people can buy and sell video games and cartridges, there is no site dedicated to telling the story of gaming from competitive gaming, the design, and development."
Until now, buyers and sellers have with truly unique items have not had one marketplace. Items included are rare cartridges, consoles, arcade machines, competition medals and trophies, posters, autographed items, prototypes, early design documents, early pinball artifacts, early computing systems and any thing else that can tell the story of gaming." - Ben Gold

Oh yeah, remind me to sell my Galaxian after Aart will have set his new WR on it for 2000 Euro.....
Oh, and I'm selling the crew-member shirt of the very first ever Eurocade, UNWASHED ( for the real die-hards ) for just 1000 Euro.....

This is even more horrible than the items and their prices:
http://ivgah.com/contents.php?show=ivgahrules
14.5% fee! :shock:
No paypal and creditcard (no buyer protection)
Payment by Check (HOW DARE YOU CALL IT INTERNATIONAL!), Horrible outdated and unsafe checks are used in what? USA, Canada and France? That is about it I guess. Is that international? Guess so.
Does make me hungry for a real well done international gaming marketplace though. Ebay still sucks on most areas: trading with users named 93859jakg, no telephone number or email contact, no single search of the whole world, sniping, no normal receipts, receipts are gone after 90 days, layout stinks, descriptions stink, photographs stink, everybody freaks out on their own custom terms of service in 2 pages of verbal diarrhoea. AMAZING how ebay survives!
