Interested in a decent-shape issue, has Asteroids on cover. A co-worker thinks it'd make a nice companion piece to his coin-op Asteroids game.

I have back issue dupes #31 & 35 to trade, or we can talk $$$. Dont want to spend more than $10 shipped though.

Funny you should mention that. I found that issue at Mall of America's Barnes & Noble just last Sunday. I normally hit MicroCenter for my RetroGamer fix, but decided to stop in. Walked out with that issue, another RG issue(Final Fantasy) and volume 3 of RG's compilations. Set me back $42. I'm keepin' it though for I have had no time to read it.

You call MicrocCenter or any of the other B&N's in the area? Some stores seem to carry 'em, some don't.

Its still available from the back issue section of retrogamer web site. It'll cost you £11.50 shipped which is just short of $19 at todays exchange rate.

I told the guy RG issues show up later here in the USA, & when I went to a nearby B&N when I thought the time was right (~6 wks after I got mine in the mail) & they had the next one (Final Fantasy) so I missed it. :(

I told him I'd look around for it for him but I'm not going to order it, thats more than he'll pay. & the nearest MicroCenter's in St Louis Park which is farther than I wanna go, though I'd likr to check it out sometime.
