I'm going to be getting my first C64 later this week and i'll be needing some games to go along with it. Does anyone know of a place other than ebay that sells these games online?

it's really easy to transfer disk images to floppies from a PC as well. lots of good carts out there as well.

Terrible, terrible site. I remember ordering some "brand new" games from them that arrived disc only. Please don't use them.

for the time being you can always try starcomander and a 1541 cable to transfer disk images

i usually buy c 64 games from ebay - but once bought C64 games from the buy sell section here -- by placeing an add there that i was looking for some -- you could try that

also - you could try the buy sell section at lemon64.com

LOADSTAR, a monthly publication for the C64 on disc, has been around since 1984 and is STILL publishing. It's a great place to get programs, games, articles, and what not concerning the C64 scene. Can be obtained either in 1541/1581 disc or emulator format. I'm currently talking to Dave Moorman, the current editor of the magazine, and will post full details when I have them.

Great choice on the C64, by the way. ;) The memories I have on that thing......

You may have to spend some time to find the bargains, but they're in there. :)
