Ross,

If you still need a scart lead for the Atari. I have a spare one you can have for free, just pay the postage.
PM me if you are interested.

I am so chuffed

I have just won an original copy of Kyan Pascal v2.02

Obviously not received it yet, as it has to arrive from Oregon and I only paid for it about 10 minutes ago. But, WOW!!!

I won this auction last night:

Atari 8-bit cartridges

It was worth it to me to get Embargo and Firebird in the same lot, I needed them both.

That was a great deal - congrats!

A guy who usually gets what he wants on ebay...

BTW - if you see one for sale in a factory sealed box for $30 - please let me know!

[Pengwin]

I just won a sealed copy of Rescue On Fractalus. It's the newer cartridge version, but it's the perfect replacement for the tape version I sold a while back.

I did notice that I'd missed out on one too many 'Dungeons' on EBay in the past to let this one get away

Edited - I did not realize this was the 8-bit forums. I feel like an intruder!

Well, even at that price, I think you got a bargain.

[deathtrappomegranate]

I completely forgot to bid on the Picnic Paranoia that ended today on ebay UK.

The only Synapse cart box that I still need

I think I'm more at ease with it as I didn't go for this in the end:
http://cgi.ebay.co.u...em=170069785110
However as value for money goes - that set is pretty decent

I've got my eye on something pretty special. I think Atarimania will be interested in this as well.

Agreed!

I have only managed to convert a part of that cassette to .cas format so far.

A cool game, at a decent price.

[DigitalDaredevil]

Hello everyone, this is my first post here as I have been a very long time lurker. I can't believe I haven't posted sooner. I received my first Atari 800XL in the very early 80's and have been a huge Atari fan ever since.

Here is my latest Ebay Auction acquisition:

http://cgi.ebay.com/...em=280069953145

It all worked except for the Power Supplies for the computers. They are not throwing out proper voltage. Does anyone know if these powere supplies are repairable before I crack them open? Or should I just buy new ones from Best Electronics?

Such a classic, I've just been playing it now, it's a clever game. I remember when me and my friend used to play it.

Welcome to the board, DigitalDaredevil, that's a really great lot you've picked up there, and at a really great price as well. The 1050's alone go for about £40 or £50 (about $80) over here.
