Guys, I didn't expect the unprovoked attack on something that has been a great joy to me over the years.

I have been reading articles and posts on this site (on and off) for nearly a year and now that I signed up I will frequent this place more. I thought this might be one place where we would have a common topic. Surely we are here because we have an interest in Dreamcast, and am I the only person in the world to have this collection? For the collectors out there... it can be done. Some contacted me earlier in the week that actually live quite close by and because of Ebay posting he sent me photos of his Japanese collection which was very impressive. Can't we all just be happy for each other?

I have gone past my childhood years now (30) and this collection was started as a kind of "see if I could" and I did. For the last two years my wife has been nagging me to sell the lot (including the xbox, cube, PS2) including all unnecessary gadgets. I told her I would sell it "once it was complete" it is now complete.

By the way aren't all new threads just Spam?

In response to the "nice" people, As I had taken a photo of the PAL stuff (I have a lot more on import) and as it was complete I thought it would be good to show it off. None of my friends are impressed by it that's for sure. The missus thinks I am crazy for whittling away our money.

I believe that the collection is worth £5000 (as a collection). Original retail would be in the region of £10,000. I am looking for at least a decent figure but not to make money.

When I got to 50 titles I thought, lets collect the lot... by the time I got to 170 it became so difficult, but I had to continue. Last year I was in Japan with the intention of buying a NEO-GEO and Metal Slug but found the cartridges to be £1000 each! So I change my mind and bought the Hello Kitty machine on the shell next to it.

I won't retract my earlier response and I will flame anyone that insults my games collection! You have all been warned now. Being kicked off a forum isn't going to cause me any sleep.

I like to believe that I am now an authority on the subject of DC games as I can honestly say I "have" played them all. Having me posting on this should be to your (dcemu's) credit.

Ok, back to work now...

First of all I didnt know that the auction on ebay was an auction from a Dcemu member. Or I would have shown it proper respect to begin with. I honestly thought that somone had just found the auction and brought it to our attention. My comments untill it got a little bit slanderous where never ment to be an attack on you marc I apologize for that. I realize you must be very proud of your collection,As we all are of our own, But There was a lot of facts I couldnt have known unless I was psychic bro so please cut me that much slack on this ?

**marc.williams** · July 28th, 2005, 14:39

Don't beat yourself up over it.

I don't think the auction is going to reach what it is worth to me... maybe the missus will feel sorry for me and let me keep it!

I sold the TIVO
PSP is still available
Gamecube going next...

Still I rather sell it myself than let her "give them away" for free.

marc.williams,
I'm sure nobody wanted to offend you. The way your post is titled sounds like youre talking about somebody else. I'm sure nobody knew it was you selling your collection.
I hope everything is ok now.

btw, we will not tolerate rule braking, and flaming for any reason, is not allowed.
