terms and conditions

 

The above prices are meant to be a guide only – final prices offered will depend on several factors including condition of machines/gameS, condition of boxes, WHETHER INSTRUCTION MANUALS ARE PRESENT, etc.

 

Note – approximate prices above will be paid for WORKING systems and games IN GOOD CONDITION. Systems must come with all necessary leads – i.e. power supply, TV lead, tape recorder/disk drive lead (if applicable) or price will be affected.  Consoles must come with at least one working controller and electronic games must have intact battery compartment door or price will be affected!

 

GAMES MUST BE ORIGINAL - NO PIRATED

COPIES WILL BE BOUGHT!

 

Items in very good condition will be worth more than the above prices.

Average-poor condition machines/games are not worth as much, while items in very tatty boxes will be worth significantly less than the boxed price quoted.  See below if you have non-working machines.

 

IF YOU DON’T SEE THE TYPE OF MACHINE YOU HAVE IN YOUR ATTIC IN THIS PRICELIST, DON’T HESITATE TO GET IN TOUCH FOR A QUICK QUOTE!

 

If you have something that you wish to sell, simply call the number below or send an e-mail to the address at the foot of the page detailing as well as possible what you wish to sell and its condition – if you wish to sell a console or computer with lots of games you don’t have to list each game individually, just tell us how many games there are and what condition they are in (e.g. boxed/unboxed, with or without instructions, etc).  We’ll get back to you with an offer and can then arrange a time to pick the items up or whether you wish to deliver them to us (we’ll pay extra!) or post them to us. 

 

For people outside the Dublin area we will happily pay postage if you need to send the goods to us, however we can only provide payment after the items have been received and inspected.  we will, however, give you a price range of what we expect to be able to pay you (For example, if you own an unboxed vectrex with 5 boxed games, Complete and in good working order we may give you a quote of between €60 and €70 for them, plus your postage costs).  if you have a digital camera, polaroid camera or scanner and can send or e-mail us pictures of the items, then that will help us to give you a better price estimate.

 

PLEASE DO NOT SEND ANYTHING WITHOUT

CLEARING IT WITH US FIRST!!

 

THE ONLY MACHINES/GAMES WE WILL NOT CONSIDER ARE –

SONY PLAYSTATION  AND PLAYSTATION 2

NINTENDO GAMECUBE

NINTENDO GAMEBOY, GAMEBOY  COLOR AND GAMEBOY ADVANCE

MICROSOFT XBOX

OLD PC’S AND MAC’S

 

We will pay €5 for broken machines (more for select machines, such as the Vectrex or ZX80) or machines without leads or power supplies as long as they are undamaged. 

SORRY, BUT IF WE CAN’T SEE A MACHINE UP AND RUNNING BEFORE WE BUY WE WILL HAVE TO TREAT IT AS NON-WORKING!

For obviously damaged machines (i.e. with cracks/breaks/holes) we may consider paying up to €5 for them if we deem them fixable or if parts can be salvaged from them – don’t be afraid to get in touch!

We will also pay 50c each for spare connecting leads and €2 each for spare (working) power supplies.  For any other items (e.g. data recorders, disk drives, microdrives, joystick interfaces, lightguns, console add-ons, etc) feel free to e-mail!

With regard to unboxed cartridge games we need to see each game up and running before purchasing or we will have to treat them as non-working.

We’ll also consider buying any gaming bits and pieces you might have lying around, such as empty game or system boxes, instruction manuals, advertising flyers, computer game magazines, catalogues from game manufacturers, etc as long as they are from the 70’s, 80’s or early 90’s.
