After having surgery my office manager stopped in to see how everyone was doing. When I went out to the lobby to see her she told me that she found something in her basement that I might enjoy. I went to the back seat of her car to see what it was that she had brought me. To my amazement there was a Vectrex still in the box with 2 controllers and 9 games!!!! :o I nearly fell over!! I couldn't believe it!!! She said that she had bought it new in 1980 or so and hadn't played it in years. I plugged it in and it works GREAT!! The games didn't have boxes and the box the system came in was pretty beat up but hey! It was a FREE VECTREX!!!!!

Just thought I'd share that story!!!

Now if half the world would clean their basement.

they have those "Donate your used car or Property" for charity. Can't we do one for game systems. One a year have an auction, give the profits to charity?

And the moral of the story is... don't be ashamed to be a collector! If no one knows, they'll never give you stuff. :D
