Warehouse Find, Large Stock of NEW Commodore Hardware

[tonyw]

Hey, what's that funny-looking old 'plane on the A500 box (picture 1)?

I believe that plane is from the game F/A-18 Interceptor.  I purchased my A500 as a "Starter Kit" and this game was supplied with it among other peices of software.  The inner box (that actually held the A500) in my starter kit is identical to those pictured.  I liked playing it for a time.  Sadly, I've lost the code wheel required to play the game.

How do people find these things? This isn't the first "find" of NOS I've seen posted about. Do people just go about snooping through holes in rusty warehouse doors until they hit the motherload of Amiga goodies?

It's strange that some businesses can order a ton of stuff, then just forget about for 20 years. You'd think that at least one employee would ask "what's under all that dust and dead roaches in the corner of the warehouse".

In one word: Commodore  :-D

Checkout Picture2 :  look closely at the top of the picture.... there is a sticker on the top of the box that says 'REFURBISHED' (u have 2 read it upside down). :-o

The aircraft isn't old, nor is it from F18 Interceptor.  It's an F15-c that was drawn or rendered with an Amiga (presumably).

BTW, give you $50 or a shedload of 1st edition AD&D books for one of 'em

Gimme, gimme, gimme!
