fuck me drunk, id be all over this if i didn't already own half of it. i think i'd rather die clutching at decreped game boxes than give it away. The one item i am after, (after losing my own copy in a fire round 94) is savage empire. I must have read the manual cover top cover dozens of times, i walked, talked, ate, slept & DREAMED that game for a solid year... but at $135 i'm afraid the reality of it may not live up to the memories... plus i think i'll need find a 3.25 inch floppy for it yes??

It had arrived on the monday (when I was at work, unfortunately), but I went along to my local Royal Mail depot to receive it earlier this evening.

Many thanks!

Awesome; glad it arrived in good condition, and thanks again for the sale!

I agree though, the game is amazing. As you can see from the pic, mine also includes the rare Clue Book, which is a fun read and has tons of content. This is probably the best condition copy you're going to find anywhere, so if you'd like to snag it, let me know where I'd be shipping to and I'll knock some off the price.

Edit: Oh, and if you don't have a floppy drive, no worries; I'll copy the disks onto a CD and include it in the box. Just drag/drop the folder onto your HD and run it with DOSBox.

Heya, I packed it up today, and it'll ship out tomorrow. When packing it, I noticed that long ago I had made copies to 3.5 disks as well. So you'll have the original 5.25s, 3.5s, and the CD I just made today!

I'll PM you the Customs # tomorrow after it ships; thanks again!

Can you ship to the Philippines? If so how big would the order have to be? (I know international shipping rates are steep).

Sure! Shipping will cost me $45 in the Medium Box (which will normally hold 3 big-box games or less, otherwise a Large Box would cost me $58 (which honestly doesn't hold much more than the Medium). I give pretty nice discounts on the total though, especially if the shipping price is hefty (like to the Philippines).

Feel free to PM me with what you'd like and I'll work with you on a fair price. The larger the order, the more of a discount I can give.

Okay I have to give the list another look through but off the top of my head I'd like to order:

C&C - Tiberium Wars Limited Kane Edition
Dracula Trilogy (Resurrection, The Last Sanctuary, Path of the Dragon)
Chasm - The Rift

If you could please PM me details about the condition of these items
and also size of items/shipping/discount details that would be great.

WooHoo, got The Savage Empire today & am now drooling everywhere ;-)
Cheers for the discount!

Current list on first page is still accurate: C&C - Tiberium Wars Limited Kane Edition, Dracula Trilogy (Resurrection, The Last Sanctuary, Path of the Dragon), and Chasm - The Rift are all still for sale and not on hold.

Abandonia community currently has first dibs on everything (other than slight competition from Amazon for the expensive stuff). Can't say how long that'll last (probably a month), but for now, it's all you guys. If you have your eye on something, might wanna snag it now before I start advertising to the other forums again.

Stating again: Willing to negotiate/discount on large and expensive orders.
