Recommended Posts

With Ricks permission, I used my "Junk Box Founding Fathers Pass" and sent Willie an invite. ;)

 

Willie is a GREAT guy and always has the coolest stuff for junk boxes.

He and I have been part of a couple junk boxes outside of the forum as well and will vouch for him any day!

Question, does it involve only atari or any retro games/accesories?

Anything retro gaming or gaming culture related.   Even some other stuff like retro music, toys, movies, etc are fine...just keep the majority gaming related!

I'm going to be out of town next week, so the box will be packed up and sent during the week of 1/24/16.  I think I know where everyone is, so we'll put together the mailing order then too.  I think we'll send it to the east coast first, then have it work it's way back west.

No surge of storms?   I am disappoint!   I sent AtariBrian a message to see if he was down.

I would like to participate but I don't think I'm in any position to do so.  I have the same fear that StormSurge has...I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to ship in a timely manner and I really don't have anything I could put in the box.  Count me out for now...maybe I can participate before the end of 2016.  Sounds like fun though and I'd like to see what everyone ends up with to get an idea.  ;)

Just so everyone knows....postage rates have gone up.  Large Flat Rate box is now $18.75.  Please be aware if you want to participate, you'll need to cover this cost of shipping.  Thanks!
