Hundreds of vintage PCs and Consoles auctioned on Ebay.

Posted in PC Games, Video Game Sites by ubersoldat on October 14th, 2005.

Two of the most conspicuous bundles I have ever seen dare enter an Ebay auction are from Freeman PC museum. And believe me, these are bundles of joy! At least, for any nostalgic nerds with plenty of pocket change. Included in his 6,000 lb. jackpot are over 400 vintage computers from “the PC revolution”, including well-preserved Apples, Ataris, Commodores, and Osbornes. The same guy is also auctioning off well over 300 consoles and electronic games of a bygone era. The consoles included are tantamount to lifetime of collection, and they include jewels such as the Nintendo NES, Magnavox, and Atari. If you feel compelled to revisit your roots in video games, you’d better be quick–the auction ends tomorrow!
