1x box of mauals books and things
1x box of games
a boxed GVP jaws 2 030 accelerator
Oh my word...
How did you find that and looks white ???
No devpac 3 in the box is there ? :)
Nice find.
One is yellow and the other is absolutly pristine white
All seals in tact and serials match the boxes

stack (39) of random comics from the 50cent bin at my local comic shop, my brother has had 2 sons over the last 2y2m, and I have been putting away a few comics (well, a lot :lol:) each time I go, as well as the occasional few from the thrift shops as well (though those tend to either be destroyed, or overpriced (and quit putting price stickers on comics you *think* are worth money...it *might* have been before you put a sticker on it's cover...))...to give to them when they are maybe 5 or 6 or so... my plan was to have a 200ct box for them each by that time...and I am close to that already after about 1 year... and since they are from the 50cent bins/thrift shops I am not really worried if they destroy them, as I pretty much did as a kid ;)

the latest expansions for Imperial Assault seem to have come out yesterday - Jabba's Realm (includes a large Rancor fig), Jabba, Jedi Luke, Captain Terro on Dewback and 1 or 2 others, probably order those nearer the end of Jan.
I just finished tearing down and cleaning/repairing a Compaq SLT/286 I picked recently. It was quite a dirty mess and one of the back-light tubes in the screen had shattered during shipping which caused a lot of tiny glass bits to have to be cleaned out. It's a nice machine and oddly the battery still holds a charge that lasts a little while. It came with the documentation, PSU and carrying case. Now to write the system image to disk so I can configure the HDD.

Wow! That cleaned up quite nice. :)

It did, thanks. I have unfortunately broken a keycap though and the HDD is dead. This hobby is full of moments. :)Quote:
