Amiga disk trading?
« on: March 05, 2010, 11:31:59 PM »
Back in the day some friends and I always traded amiga disks by mail.
I used to get disks in the mail from all over the world, and I remember
the excitement I had when one came in the mail.

I thought doing so again would be fun and wondered if anyone would
like to participate. You can post floppies by media mail very inexpensively.
 
I am hoping to trade less common things that you can not generally find on the internet, demos, apps or games... I also thought perhaps we could do email trading, but I kind of prefer the physical disks...
 
I also have some boxed amiga games that I am not using really and wondered if anyone would like to trade for them.
 
This disk trading network would also be great for people like me who recently came back to amiga and are having a hard time getting drivers
or whatever on to their ressurected amigas...
 
Anyone care to start trading?

Steven

I think it would be alot of fun to get amiga disks in the mail again, and besides this, it could be very helpful to those coming back to amiga...

I just went through quite a great deal of crap just to get the ability to get an a1200 going and it would have been tons easier if some helpful amiga user had sent me some much needed drivers on floppy...

So far, I think I'm trading some boxed games for some amiga floppies...

I will soon begin to get some demos/games/music/artwork together on floppy for trade.  Pm me if you'd like to do some trades. I think a 6 pack of floppies is a good idea, costs between 2.00$ and 3.00$ to send 6 floppies, and 6 floppies can hold a whole lot of amiga goodies...
