Hello AppleFritter people. I'm giving notice here of my current eBay auction selling a lot of games, including boxes and manuals for some. I apologize in advance to anyone that would only be interested in select items, and would not be able to afford the whole lot. My reasoning is I'm lazy and only want to ship once.

Be sure that your camera is in focus next time.
It was in focus, the camera just sucks and I had to take it from some distance to get everything in frame. There's been enough comments I've received about getting individual items that'll I'll break up any future lots, and I'll take closer images in that case since it'll be 10 or so per auction instead of having hundreds.
Is there anything in particular you want a closer image of?
Oh, maybe I should have researched these games a little more and posted them separately. Apparently I have a rare copy of Ultima 1 by California Pacific Computers in there, didn't even know it was that rare.
http://www.stageselect.org/12478-ultima.aspx estimates a good condition copy going for $350.00 by itself. Oh well, live and learn. Research old stuff before selling it, and don't do things out of laziness like throwing things into a lot just because they're alike.
For those interested I've found more things of my dad's that I'm going to put up individually over the next couple of days. I suppose if they don't sell in an auction, I'll put them on craigslist, then into the trash if there's still no interest. Not really sure what's rare and what's not, but some interesting finds from my perspective is a sealed Elite for IMB compatible DOS 2.0 and a sealed Tales of the Unknown: The Bard's Tale for Apple II. There are a few more sealed games including Sargon III and Dark Castle, both for the Macintosh. That's all I can remember off the top of my head.
Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know I've added more auctions for new individual items, a list will be in the first post with a link to my seller items. I'm going to be adding more tomorrow as well.

The old auction is over, and I've started one that isn't a giant lot. So, I hope everyone can appreciate the extra work it takes to split all the items up. Here's a list of titles:
This auction is over.
------------------------------------
This is the end of list for now.
Hey everyone,
I've put up more items tonight. I'll be putting some pricier items (similar items did really well) up over the weekend for an extended 10 day auction (Ultima 1 complete, Ultima Trilogy complete, Times of Lore complete). It sounds like my dad is nearing the end of the items he wants to get rid of at the moment. Some of those include some non-game media like spreadsheets and word processors as well as some hardware. Does anyone know if that sort of thing is worth listing? I'm really not sure about them, so I'll list one or two and see how they do. I'll make another write up once I've seen the items and can describe them. For now I'll update the first post with the current list of items.

Quotation marks around the URL confuse bbcode.

Alright, I've listed the three games I mentioned before:

Ultima 1 - The game is complete and includes the 5 coins plus the bag they originally came in. Also included are the 4 maps, player reference guide, manual, disk, registration card, and advertisement. Everything is in near mint condition except for the box, which is in very good condition with some minor bowing around the sides and the top is bent inward, which has caused some creasing in the corners.

Ultima Trilogy - The game is complete and includes the box, manual, reference guide, quickstart instructions, advertisement, registration card, disks, and maps. Everything is in near mint condition with the box having some slight bowing around the sides.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250637479443&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT

The Origin games are still up for 4 more days, but all previous auctions have ended.
Some items coming up next week will include some hardware such as a Z-80 Plus (whatever that is), and an Apple Modem, both sealed. I'm sure there are more hardware items as well, I just need to get around to taking pictures of them.
The Z80 card is so you can run CP/M software on the Apple II series. Much like what the PC Transporter did, the PC transporter card (it basically was a PC on a card) allowed you to run DOS and write and read PC disks on the Apple II series.
I was wondering who has been placing all of the software up for bid and now I know. lol
Zenic you have a LOT of nice programs up there. I'm still watching Times Of Lore.
