All three boxes are in great condition, just as described.

Below should be a picture...

Sweet I have those exact same boxes! The AITD is one of my favorite boxes - d'oh! I should have gotten it out of the garage to take a picture of it for a photoshoot I did last week for a magazine article. The way it glows in the dark was awesome.

wait what


HOW DID I NEVER SEE THIS


Still would appreciate some more orders! Like I said, computer got fried and Panthro helped out immensely, but it'd be great if I could cover my whole cost (and stop hating myself a bit for investing in a new computer).

Seriously though, thank you to everyone who's bought from me so far, you have no idea how much it's helped me out with just day-to-day costs. You guys rule

IT GLOWS IN THE DARK???

I will attempt to get a picture this weekend...

@Red: if you want any pictures for future articles do let me know.

@Joe: Glad to help out!

It wasn't for Abandoned Times it was for PC Gamer - they're doing an article about old game toys and boxes and stuff that came with games.

And yeah, easy to check: turn off light and it will glow

Panthro, the PC Gamer article is mentioned somewhere in site news, if it's still being written you can help out

Well, I can't get the box to glow at all.

Bit disappointing really.

Huh, maybe it was regional or something (UK vs US release). I had no idea that it glows though.

Or doesn't.

Fact: The French compilation release (Infogrames) of AITD 1+2+3 haz a glowing box.
(Moi is looking@it now)
No idea about the English releases.

Bump for an interest check:

Would anyone be interested in the ORIGINAL Prince of Persia (DOS, 5.25 & 3.5), complete in triangular box w/manual and everything? I can't find it for sale ANYWHERE at the moment, and this is the only place I'm going to post it for awhile. I'm thinking $210.



I'm absolutely dead broke right now so if anyone would like to place an order on anything, it'd be HUGELY appreciated. The Corsair power supply friggin exploded within the new computer, and I had to buy another one. So basically, it's going to take forever to get my refund back from NewEgg and I'm $120 poorer than I expected to be.

Saibot, your stuff has been boxed up and ready to go out, I just haven't been able to get down to the post office before the weekend. Like I said, Wednesday at the latest, but I'll probably have some errands to run before that so no worries, you'll get a tracking # soon enough.

Help me out, folks!

My three games, everything was in perfect order, all the games manuals (soundtrack for Driver), and even old advertisements were in there. Even had the old musty smell attached that makes me smile! I shall be playing these soon!

P.S. Major props to you for keeping the game boxes and ads, that's like holy crap awesome.
