TL:DR Version:  Brand new, never played, untouched Qbert Jump Serials 2 and 14 (of 20) up for grabs, PM offers. Serial Placards autographed by Warren Davis and untouched since. Payment via Paypal F&F, shipping/local pickup available. Only selling because I was laid off right after FreePlay and am still out of work. Have bills to pay, so certain things have to go.

Well, as the title says... I've two carts available, serials 2 and 14 out of 20. These are the non-Autograph versions, as there were only 5 of those:  Scott reserved 4 for people who helped with development and sold 1 at open auction for $379.

These HAVE BEEN AUTOGRAPHED BY WARREN DAVIS! - well, the serial placards have. As the regular games didn't have an autograph slot, and I planned on actually playing the game, I didn't see the point in putting the autograph on something that would go in and out of my Atari and get my greasy fingers all over the face, etc.

As I told Scott when I purchased these, I was buying one for me, and one for a buddy. And if my buddy didn't want his, then his was going to auction. Unfortunately, I was laid off from my job of 18 years a week after Freeplay, so everything went on hold. I've never touched the game carts, and the serial placards haven't been out of the package since Warren signed them for me during Freeplay. Oh, and yes the sticker, manual, and serial placard is included with both games (sticker is behind the placard on one of them)

At this point, I'm still among the ranks of the unemployed, and I've decided that these need to go to someone that will enjoy them. Hopefully someone with deep pockets, as Poppa's got bills ;)

Open to offers - please PM me, and don't forget to specify which one you're interested in. I'll check once or twice a day, and will get back to you.

Please be aware that payment is via Paypal F&F, and shipping would be via USPS Priority with Insurance and signature required. If you're local to me, there is an option to meet, depending on distance.

On AtariAge? I put up an ad there 5 days ago in their buy/sell forum. Zero views. PM'd the guys who were looking, nothing. That place seems to be a ghost town for buy/sale, sadly. I'm far from the only ad there that has zero views in the last week or so.

I figure I'll try here and AmiBay, then move on to fleabay, much as I don't want to go there.

Thanks bud

*edit - learned something new. Apparently the views counter at AtariAge doesn't update until you get reply. Weird. Lots of views, no bites. Meh.

Wow.... That's awesome! I sent Scott a FB message thanking him, and thank you for your comments and links as well!

I've received 2 messages on AtariAge about them today, one with a very solid offer. Crossing fingers!
