    Default 5,000 Games and Systems and Prototypes and Arcade Boards FS?

    Well well....

    This is your once in a lifetime chance to own stuff that NO ONE else in the world has, as well as so many games and systems that you will think you are buying a game store!

    I am NOT selling everything, keeping about 500 games for my collection, the rest? ONE BUYER. Only way I will do it, or I will just horde it all again I guess= ) If anyone is interested, email jwilson@lfp.com

    "some" of the things to consider-
    90 Neo Geo home carts
    nearly 500 cartridge prototypes
    nearly 50 UNRELEASED prototypes for many systems
    between 60-100% of the games EVER released for 3do, jaguar, Vectrex, NES, SMS, Genesis, SNES, N64, Dreamcast, XBOX, PS2, GBA, list goes on...

    SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY.

    If you have the cash, you know what a collection like this is worth, so email if you think you will not insult me= )

    He hasn't given any type of ballpark figure on what he has or of what he wants, nor of where it is. I'm still trying to decide if it's a scam or not.

    This is Jason Wilson from Tips and Tricks magazine. He is recognized as having the greatest NES collection on the planet. It is definately not a scam, I only wish I had more than 6 grand in the bank so I could buy it all.

    Or perhaps someone posing as this Jason Wilson? I'm not saying it is but it's entirely possible given the very vague nature of what's been posted.

    Default doubt it

    I doubt buddy is a writer because if he was a writer, he could have written a better description. He writes like he doesn't have arms!
    If he is a writer, the theory stands true. A writer can't advertise.

    No, this is definitly Jason Wilson, His discription works quite well, as those of us who know his collection, know that the amount of stuff in this lot is nearly uncountable.

    Except that given the price, if he limits those only to those who already know what he has, he's not very likely to sell it as a whole.

    Default q

    I would guess more like 20-50k.

    So, you don't want to sell off certian sections to different buyers? You'd certainly get more $ that way.

    If you decide to do so, I'd be VERY interested in many of your items (mucho $ I would spend, yep). PM me if so.

    And a list would be nice. Only you know *every* item you own, and for this kind of cash, it would be essential for one to know.

    If a serious buyer came along, would you provide this kind of list?

    If I were going to spend $20k on any item I'd fly over and inspect it myself and then be active in its transport as well.

    I went through it and at 100 a neo-geo game, 100 a prototype, 200 for the unreleased protos and 3 a game (for the rest) you looking at $85000, I dunno if I am way off on the price, but thats just what It looked like to me when I did a quick count.

    And yes its a legit lot

    I'm sure if someone made a descent offer, he'd take the time to inventory it all out for you, but I think even he thinks his odds of finding a buyer are slim, and there isn't much need to go in depth yet.

    Maybe I'm the only one who thinks this, but I think it's absurd to advertise such a high-dollar collection and then not give any in-depth details. Certainly a collection of this supposed calibur must be documented. How about a list???

    I e-mailed him some questions... no reply.

    DreamTR is damn good at CvS2 online. He kicked my ass a few times.

    That's my pointless addition to the thread.
