I will try to remember to be here tomorrow.  Intellivison in hand! 

I have an extra working intellivision that I'd love to trade with anyone looking to get one (doesn't have to be an even trade). 

Now does anyone make a multi cart for the 7800?  What good 7800 emulator is there?

My favorites at the moment are:
A customized CX-40 that I got from @AtariBrian  He replaced the little metal indent switches with microswitches.  It's awesome. SlikStik.  The custom pad I got from @StormSurge.  Perfection in pad form.  I think it's made by Retrogameboyz.  But my memory is weak. And PS - I've wanted a Starplex for a long time.  I saw one recently and was always thought it would be bigger.  Still, I want one.
 
 

Whooo I haven't been in here in a long time.  My wife got it for me for Christmas.  Took a second try to get to Oregon, but the second trip was very successful, I think only one broken leg.  Very fun, but I'll never play it again, so I neatly put it all back in the package and put it on the shelf.

I have an extra working intellivision that I'd love to trade with anyone looking to get one (doesn't have to be an even trade). 

This is cool, but I wonder why someone made it?  It's even talking about the game on the back of the box.
 

 

YES! I got the box back!
I must admit, after hearing about some of the disappointments this go around, I was a little worried that all I'd find in the box was 40 dirty copies of Combat and an Osmonds 8 Track tape. 
I'm glad to say I was wrong! The stuff in this box was a great mix! I'm truly sorry if you didn't find much you liked, but I'm shocked some of this stuff made it to me!
 

 
I want to thank everyone who participated.
 
 
Please post a pics or videos of your contributions to the box!

I’m always looking forward to the box every time I’ve been doing it, I guess I understand that not everyone will find something worth it in the box, I usually try my best to put good junk in the box the next person in line

I have to try to stuff the box back up and it will be on its way tomorrow or Wed morning. 
 
 Some Strong Language (I thnknk)
 

I received the box today! I digged thru it and this is what I took out, as always a good experience! I will pack it with more goodies and will send it back it NSG on Monday

THIS!
 
If your goal is to make money off the box or if you are hoping to put in ten copies of Combat to snag a copy of Stadium Events, then the box isn't for you. The Box is about community and fun! Sometimes you might get lucky and find some stuff you always wanted. Other times, you might not find anything you really need, but you can still enjoy rummaging through the box and adding something for someone else like Willie did. The box should be viewed more as an experience to share, not as a straight business transaction!
 
(And yes, we want everyone to be fair with what they put in and avoid filling the box with real junk. You should always look at the box and ask yourself, is there something I have that the next guy might want and does the box have a nice variety in it to cover more bases)

I was just thinking about putting together a list of everything I have in my "duplicates" box and posting it in a new "Trading Post" post here on a 1 for 1 trade basis, then sharing that on Facebook to see if we could get a few new faces here.  We did this a few years back and I ended up sending out a ton of games. 

Thanks man!!!!
 
Honestly, for me it is not about the value. Ya it would be nice to make up the $20 in shipping but its more the excitement of seeing what others take, not knowing what is left behind/added and then getting the box and going through it. What happened to Willie sucks on EVERY level and I can see that turning folks away from the entire thing, maybe to a point where we just don't do junk boxes anymore. Hopefully the next one will go a bit better for everyone!!!!!  

Here is what I took from the box
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
yep, nothing   but I did put some cool stuff in there

OK, I have taken stuff out and put stuff in and we're back to the USPS box.    Here is the "junk" I took from the box...
 

 

 

Of course I love my various variations of the original Atari 2600, as well as the absolutely monstrous Atari 5200 but also as shown here I really kind of dig the Atari 2600 Junior. Just love the small compact size of these things. As well since I have two of them I may give painting one of the shells a try someday.
 

Ahh heck, change is bad, I still wish it was the 80's!  Kidding aside, can't wait to see the new digs.

The box has arrived!  Boy, did it explode!  I'll have to sort through and see how I can make it USPS-friendly again!    Looks to have some nice stuff in it. 

Parker Brotherific! Dig that pinball game too!
If that copy of Jedi Arena makes it on your show someday, that would be an I/O crossover, since it was my review copy!

Got back from some time away and dug though the box, its going out tomorrow!
 

Here is what I took:


I also took this stuff out, as I could not Tetris all the junk back into the box. 

 
I'll get the box off to BTB as soon as I can. 
 
Thanks!
 

The box is on its way to RickR! Here's what I took:
 

Repro cart from an etsy seller.
