I want some retro!

    Hey guys,

    Same question asked here a million times, where can I get my retro fix.

    Now I have been wandering near and far between adverts, ebay, gumtree, all to some avail but still a bit on the insane price side.

    What Im looking for is, do you have or know people that have any games, consoles, accessories that they're willing to part with.

    I understand were all Horders but personally I can't stand having two of the same things.

    Basically I want, I want, I want.

    Help :(

    We can give advice on where to get retro bargains in the way of markets and shops, there's not too many of each any more, but any items we may have ourselves that we want to part with we would have to do on Adverts or risk being banned.
    The only way we can transact here is to give stuff away for free, and mate, that's not going to happen!

    Anyway, best of luck with the collecting and for my first tip, ebay is actually not a bad place to start, especially for the more common stuff, it can be reasonable enough.
    If it's rare or old, or both, then you're simply going to have to pay I'm afraid.
    There's no such thing as a steal here

    I think Tallon has the right idea here, and I think from the last few posts most people would agree: why not a sticky in the retro forum for swapping?? All retro forum users would undoubtedly be up for it...
    Any chance of bringing it up in a mod forum meeting L0gie?!
