I'm interested in Speedball 2 & Powermonger and postage would be from UK to Germany. Just toss me a PM.

I would happily take all of the stuff but I also have limited storage space and the postage alone would surely kill my yearly budget.

I'd be interested in all of them I suppose, minus one or two anyone else wants. How much is the postage? I live in Reading.

Going by the Parcel Force website, I estimate postage to be around £60 for everything. I won't really know the exact price until I get it all packed and weighed so if you're still interested then let me know.

That's a bit steep. I've had larger packages come which didn't require so much postage.

What about Royal Mail? I know we're considering the dregs here but what's their price?

Like I said, it's just an estimate as I don't know the exact weight. Also, Parcel Force are part of Royal Mail so that may be why it seems expensive? :)

Keep in mind that all the stuff is very heavy so I can't personally take all it down to the post office as I don't have any transport. That's another reason I looked at using the Parcel Force service - they will pick up the package from me.....and Royal Mail don't.

Anyway, I'll try and get a more accurate price when I get the chance to sort through the stuff and weigh it all.

Just a quick update.....

Right, all the stuff did weigh around 35kg total.....however, someone has picked up the hardware and about half of the floppy discs from me.

All I have left now are the cover discs and the original software.

Combined weight of what's left is now about 15kg - it's still quite heavy with all the floppy discs, big game boxes and heavy manuals etc. So if I sent that by Royal Mail standard parcels then, according to their website, it should cost around £15 - don't quote me on that though as I would still need to pack it all up and weighed officially at the counter.

@commie Are you, or anyone else, still interested in any of the stuff that is left?

People, don't tell me that you will let him trash the stuff...

Additionally, I could use Shadow of the Beast I+II then... same postage ?

Beast 1 & 2 goes to vosla then.

As these are just discs only, I'm guessing p&p will be about £3.....
unless there's anything else you want from the list? ;)
