I just picked up some old handheld and desktop games. I don't usually go for these but they were too much to resist for nothing. :thumbsup2:

Finally got one of these for my A3000.
You may not be interested in paper, but I really enjoy completing a package for my machines. :nuts:

I've started collecting one of each camera I've owned. Yeah, my therapist thinks it's odd too.
Just bought this little beast. It was the first camera I ever owned. I have many photos from the original and can't wait to clean this one up.

I discovered this at a local garage sale. Not a computer related item but certainly different. It's in amazing condition considering it was user-assembled in about 1964.

Picked up a MailBug e-mail appliance from the thrift store today. Not because I actually have any intention of using it, but because it got me a very nice little compact keyboard with full-size keys and an 80x8 character LCD display for a homebrew portable-computer project I've been scheming up...that and a 64KB EEPROM.

Just a thrift shop day, hadn't found too much last couple of times...still not much in the way of vintage/retro computing or console stuff... (and I am no longer very hopeful)
but a few interesting things this time anyways, as far as I am concerned - any day you find 5 'Tintins' it's a good day...
Toys/Games
The Last Spike boardgame (Gamma Two, 1976)
King's Cribbage game (CoCoCo, 1999) (unused - tiles still in original plastic bag)
Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness, boxed (Blizzard, 1996) MSDOS/W3.1/W95
Warcraft II: Beyond the Dark Portal expansion, boxed (Blizzard, 1996) MSDOS/W3.1/W95
Luke Skywalker's Desert Sport Skiff (PotF) (Kenner, 1996) (in original packaging)
Books
Tintin - King Ottokar's Sceptre (Methuen, 1976)
Tintin - The Seven Crystal Balls (Magnet, 1983)
Tintin - Prisoners of the Sun (Magnet, 1981)
Tintin - Destination Moon (Magnet, 1988 )
Tintin - Tintin in Tibet (Magnet, 1985)
FF#4 - Creature of Havoc (Wizard, 2002)
Micro Adventure #1 - Space Attack (Scholastic, 1984) (found on a previous trip, these were interesting little books which included basic programs for the computers of the day which went along with the story)
Other
NEC 1.44MB USB Floppy Disk Drive
Maxell MF2HD 1.44MB Floppy Disks (60) (sealed) (found on a previous trip)

Darn you! You got me looking for old Tintin books. :)
I did find a nice 64C on Craigslist, and when I contacted the guy, he asked me if I would be interested in a TI99/4A (complete with expansion box, and a boat load of tapes, etc). So why not? :)
Looking through one of the boxes today I found a binder that he included with about 20 TI magazines from the '80's. Pretty cool. :)

I've always liked the TI-99, I have 2 myself (one in orig. box), never did get a tape drive for them though....but I have a few carts anyways. (also lacking a working drive for my Atari 600XL and 800XL)...my best friend got one, I think for Christmas '81 (might have been his b/d in '82)...to that point I'd only ever seen the VIC20 and the Apple IIs our school had gotten, so it was absolutely fantastic. (the C64 didn't exist yet)
took a run down to the thrift shops down south yesterday (NE on wed.)...a few bits and pieces, but nothing very exciting...
Magic the Gathering Starter Gift Set (WotC, 1999) (Starter 1999) (appears to be complete, with a few extra cards as well, hardly played) - had a better look through this one, entirely complete + 2 additional starter decks (Blinding Fury (white) & Impaler (green)) + 3 opened boosters (15+15+8 ) + some cards that were either bought or given (quite well used) about 275-280 cards all told. (addtionally about 40 sleeves that someones 'play-deck' is in + 10 extra blue scoring beads)
2 issues of CARtoons magazine from 1991
a few Transformers toys from the newer movies (2007ish) (Wreckage, Blackout, Star Scream, Mudflap & Overcast)
a few Star Wars Action Fleet ships (1995) (2x A-Wings, Snowspeeder, B-Wing (missing 1 foil unfortunately))
Logitech MX-5500 bluetooth keyboard (tested working with my smartphone and the Frodo C64 emulator :lol:)
Pelouze model 5055 rate programmable digital postage scale (+power adapter)

Might be able to help with a working (tape or disk) drive for your Ataris, SaviorX.
Let me know if you're in the hunt for one...mind, postage to Canada could be a tad steep...
Cheers and enjoy that collection!
