I am a little more than halfway there. I have been trying to get organized so I can get back to getting rid of some games. I guess the 98° weather had something to do with getting me motivated below ground. Smile

Yes Hats. They used to come in the Dreamcatcher/Adventure company games. Have you noticed my old win 98 PC? Smile Comes in very handy for the old games..Will never get rid of it. I know it was very hot at your homestead...the heat got me out of cleaning the garage and the perfect chance to go play in my games organize the basement. Very Happy

That is your old 98 ? Cool yes I did notice it. I will never get rid of my 98 pc either. I live in mortal fear that something will go wrong with it. I have played many old games on it. Very Happy

I think I have a couple of posters in some of my older games. I don't have the wall space to put them up in my little computer room.

Enjoy playing with your games..errrr umm I mean organizing your basement Smile

jk it must have been an incredible experience to be in the presence of Ang and her magnificent collection. I imagine the pictures don't even come close to doing justice to that collection. I'm glad you had the chance to see that collection in person cheers

It looks good, Ang, and I see that you have some more room on your shelves to spread out a bit (or buy more).

That's a nice collection, Hats. I see that you've kept the shrink wrap on most of your big box games. Are those the collectables or do you secretly slit the plastic and pull out the game to play?

Thanks Lady K The big boxes in the third picture are sealed in thier shrinkwrap. I have opened copies of them to play. All the rest of them look like shrinkwrap in the pictures but actually they are in plastic bags to protect them. Smile

WOW...She Pharaoh, That is quite a collection you have. You must have one of every adventure game there. That is a beautiful glass cabinet (3rd picture) that you have your sealed games in.


Miss Ang

Never fear, I am on my way to your house right now to relieve you of your burden in your basement. It will only take me about an hour to clean out everything in your basement and into the U Haul truck I am bringing. Don't worry I will also take those annoying posters and what is hiding behind those privacy panels. No need to thank me, its the least I could do. So just sit back and leave the rest to me. See ya soon.

Ang and Hats - lovely collections that you have. Zip lock baggies are really good to use to put boxed games in too.

Thanks GreyFuss. That lovely glass case was specially buit for those big box games. The door has a locking mechanism on it. The case in the last picture also has a glass door that locks. I wish I had one of every game, there are still a few that elude me.

Hi rainbowgirl I have uaed ziziplock bags also. I really like the ziplock bags for manuals and old game guides. Smile

LOL..GF....ROADTRIP! I have been trying to get you to come down to hit all the goodwill and bookstores. It will be fun.As far as my basement..I can deal...Thank you anyway. You will be the first I call if ever I decide to unload. Ahhh...behind the screens.. there are some goodies back there for sure. Smile


Hats and RAinbow..I too cover my games... in polypropylene bags that they make for magazines and comic books and tape the edges tight. They don't discolor and are always clear. The same type of thing for jewel case games too.

Are you sure...I am half way there with a big pitcher of Iced Tea (Long Island Style) for you. After a few mugs of this you won't even know I have been there. And when you wake up sometime tomorrow you will have a huge vacant recreation room in your basement

My goodness, I can only dream of being that organized.

First I'd have to come up with that type of open space (which I don't have)

I use the gallon size glad bags for my big boxes and retail size boxes. I cut the bags down a bit to make a better fit with the retail size boxes then tape them down snuggly. For the cd cases I use the sandwich size bags. The ziplock bags work really well for the loose manuals.
