exxos's Atari, Amiga & retro forum

My thoughts exactly...

This reminds me of my coin-op collecting days in the late 90s, there were people sitting on warehouses of parts from the late 70s early 80s and had not idea what was where. My experiences tell me that this is simply a hoarding complex unfortunately. It all has value to them but it is too overwhelming but they still want to keep control. Some of them as they got older became completely exhausted and let the stuff take over them.

I have always found the best way is to work in person when you can, build trust and show how much you truly appreciate what they have and respect it and with time you are sometimes given the ability to browse.

Would it be possible to use an existing atari and sacrofice it to make such a mold?
