Where to Sell 80s era Video and Role-Playing Games?

JPhillips · 06-29-2021, 01:39 PM

We're cleaning out my mother's house and I have a few boxes of Atari, Apple 800, and TI99 hardware and games as well as some old D&D modules from the mid-eighties. I know I can ebay all of it, but I was wondering if anyone had any experience or advice for selling.

Thanks.

For the D&D Modules, I would suggest either Ebay, or if you just want to get them done all in bulk, look at NobleKnight.COM

Probably ebay for the Computer hardware/games.

We have a few stores around the St Louis called Slackers. They sell old games of all types. Check an area big city to see if they have that type of store and you may be able to get rid of the, there.

Finally got the adaptors that allow me to hook things up to a modern tv and both the Atari 2600 and Atari 65XE still work. It took me forever to find out how to load games from floppies for the XE.

Man, Slackers. I remember discovering that store in Columbia in late '99. If only I'd had money when I was attending Mizzou.

send them all to me

There's a facebook group called RPG Auctions. Might try that/ I haven't yet but am in it. THings can get pretty high.

Pretty much like ebay. Ebay's fees are too high lately.
Using just paypal for selling is much better

I was able to test all of the Atari 65XE games and almost everything worked.

But one of the two games that wouldn't load was Lance Haffner 3 in 1 Football.

NOOOOOOOO

I own stuff like this, too, and am victim of the well documented syndrome that nobody ever would pay me what I judge it "to be worth" so it will surely all sit amongst my untouched possessions until I am dust.

I used to kick some ass on Atari BASIC, too, man. PEEK POKE STRIG(0) GOSUB all that shizz.
