Good to hear you both did well at the market Sean despite the darkness🤣 Thought the event was great and looking forward to the next one Definitely looking forward to the Secret Santa stream aswell 🤣👍

[@retrogamesrevived1189]

Yeah, the darkness didn't really affect sales though, like I said, we did better than expected 😁👍 😂it's gonna be fun mate

[@gib84gaming4]

🙏 thanks for the mention Sean, it was a brilliant experience, and one I am so grateful of. Blessed the guys came and gave it their all and the amount raised was AMAZING. Glad your 1st stalling went well and I need to get a keyring next time we meet 😁

[@retrogamesrevived1189]

@@gib84gaming4 absolutely mate, ill get our sam to find you a good keyring. Ill ask her if she will donate a bundle of goodies too for the next charity event 😁👍 You all did a super job of the stream mate, im just so glad i had days off to watch it 😁👍

[@tootyuk]

i cant believe you sold that much 8bit stuff i think you were giving them 2 for1 hahahaha Glad to hear Sam did well, tbh mate the prices of the tables your better off having 1 each none of the sharing nonsense. Buying stock you should have took me up on my offer, youd of been all set!

Sounds like the event was great! Gordon did amazing work putting that 24 hour livestream on! Him and the others deserve so much respect!

[@retrogamesrevived1189]

@@bundjohn they certainly do john, they were all troopers and i take my hat off to them. The event was good mate but we really didnt get a minute to chat to anyone...im used to being able to have a good chinwag with people 🤣

I’m glad you had a great time at the Black Country Gaming Fair. It was a cracking day and I can’t wait for the next one. Though I’ve got Doncaster in a couple of weeks. The gaming stream was sooo much fun and it was all made possible by the hard work of Gordon along with Ross and Paul on tech and hosing duties. Though it was tough near the end I’m not gonna lie. I may have even had a minor snooze in the wee hours, though not for long a hour tops. We were also streaming on Eddies channel too, but that was just me and Eddie to be fair.

[@retrogamesrevived1189]

We've said for now that we will just do the black country events until we get used to it and we get more stock 😁 You all put on a great show mate and such a fantastic result. You all should definitely be proud of yourselves. 👊

[@TheRetroBear]

Good to see you as always and glad Sam did well. Think that was our mate Mickey who came over at the end and got all your 8 bit stuff 😊 Yeah it was one heck of a few days just gone, such an emotional experience but so rewarding too. To raise so much money and to be so well looked after by Gordon and the staff was amazing. I feel so sad now it is over, hard to describe really 😢 Good stuff mate as always 😊👍🐻

[@retrogamesrevived1189]

@@TheRetroBear indeed, it was lovely to see you and mrs bear again mate but being on the other side of the table i just didnt get chance to have a proper chat with anyone 😞. Mickey is a top bloke, he just kept picking out titles and even returned right at the end. I did him a cracking deal both times, i was just grateful that he bought some 😁👍

Sounds like the Black Country event was excellent again 👍 It's a shame the Broken Sword trilogy didn't work😭 I noticed a Sam & Max in your games to sell on the Wii....it's a classic point & click that world great with a wiimote👍👍

[@retrogamesrevived1189]

It was excellent mate, it was just a bit weird on the other side of the table, just didn't get chance to wander around and chat to people. I know, I was gutted as I love the Broken Swords. I'll just have to get them for the PS1 instead 😁

[@davidretrogamesplayedbadly3533]

Great to hear you did well at the black country event mate, was gutted not to make it. Good look chasing the alternative collection, look forward to seeing what you find, any rarities? Was great what Gordon and the chaps did, didn't make the stream much but I chucked a donation in and that box of tat Al won 😂

[@retrogamesrevived1189]

@@davidretrogamesplayedbadly3533 Thanks mate, we enjoyed the market and hopefully can do it again at the next one 👍 Im not sure what rarities there are for the spectrum or the amstrad, im sure there will be as there is in every collection 😫 but ill know as i get closer to completing them. I didnt catch that bit with Al winning your box of tat 🤣🤣🤣 wish i had though 😁👍

[@GenerationPixel]

I'm glad you had a good day at the Black Country event 👍 Gordon pulled off a stunning event, and it was great to meet the lads for the first four hours of the stream 😁

[@retrogamesrevived1189]

mate, I missed seeing you on the stream purely because I was in York and couldn't watch it. At least you got to go and have fun with the gang 😁

[@HyperTriggerEx]

Great to finally meet you in the flesh Stewart and thanks for dropping by to show your support. Gordon did an amazing job along with Ross and Paul on tech and hosting duties. What a great night, though I was flagging by the end lol.

[@JudgeDrokk]

Did u take all the C64 stuff to sell that you were listing on eBAY? Imagine if u had all the PS2 stuff you unloaded a year ago! How many 8BIT (C64 in particular) do you have now? do you keep a catalogue?

[@retrogamesrevived1189]

@@JudgeDrokk hey mark, no i didnt take everything that was listed as i had a good amount of stock to take anyway 👍 I know, in hindsight id have made quite a bit of money with the ps2 collection 😫 oh well, never mind. I do keep a record of most of the games i collect but its still work in progress so i havent got a count of 8-bit games at the moment. I am working on it though 😁👍

[@JudgeDrokk]

@@retrogamesrevived1189 You can't beat a good up to date catalogue of your stuff. I recommend setting up a spreadsheet with tabs for each system, format, all the numbers. Load up some tunes on your day off and get typing!
