Hi from Australia

[kittychloe]

Hi, my names Chloe I'm 24 and have been collecting for a few months now, I will post a pic or 2 of the collection later as I'm at work, I collect most things videogame related, I prefer items in reasonable condition but I am not really a sealed collector, I like to be able to play and display the actual contents of the box for people to look at experience and want.. I have 2 sealed games because I don't own a pc, I'm very much a second hand store junkie..

Nice to meet everyone

Welcome to the forums!

24 is an age that seems to be popping up quite a bit lately. Interesting... Maybe people in their early 20's go through some kind of collecting or video game phase lol.

That aside, looking forward to seeing your collection and hopefully you will be able to find a lot of good things on here.

[kittychloe]

More information I've been playing videogames since about age 4 on Atari, I started to collect properly after getting a box of old sega games from my parents last year when they got sick of storing my crap...

This is actually my second collection attempt, my original was ruined back around age 14 when my parents washing machine exploded.. Fun time that was, back then videogames were not collectors items so insurance said they were worthless and to the junk heap they went.. It's was only a kids collection though pretty much games I didn't play and the boxes packed up with dolls to fill the extra space... The dolls survived -_-'

Pictures in maybe 3 hours? I finish work at 7am :(

I think 20 is when people get a steady form of income and move out of home so they have no parents saying dont waste your money..

I ticked the import export box but I'm not sure Australia gets anything exclusive or cheaper than anywhere else lol..

Welcome :) Nice to see more of us girlies joining the forum :)

I'm Vanessa, and I'm 19 (20 in July) :) Yeah, you Aussies get some exclusives from EBGames :) Had to get help to import a few of those before :)

Can't wait for pics :D xx

Welcome to the forums - I'm very much the same in terms of not keeping stuff sealed! I'm sure most of my collection has been scuffed or knocked over at some point by my cats!

But then "a person's collection should tell the story of their life" is always a quote I've very much agreed with!

[kittychloe]

Really? what have we got here apart from aussie sports games?

Couldn't agree with you more.. darn cats.. lost a naruto game and an xbox 360 to them.. cats sleeping on xbox's cause rrod XD..

Ive got a hanimex with the original owners name in red ink on the box.

Really? what have we got here apart from aussie sports games?

The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time Ocarina Edition
RAGE EBGames Exclusive Edition
Skyrim EBGames Exclusive Edition
Fifa 12 Ultimate EBGames Exclusive Edition

Probably some others too, but that's all I've had assistance with so far xx

[kittychloe]

I only just got rage from a second hand store for $30 I was pretty unimpressed with the contents, bar the windstick which I thought would work like a boomerang.

I wanted the greek edition of ocarina of time, it came with so much more stuff

[Amnoz]

I will buy it off you if it's for ps3!

Do you know the number of the art cell?

[kittychloe]

Its for 360, but I will keep an ear out for a ps3 one if you like, the number started with a 6 if i remember right but posters are always interchangeable, main stuff I have to sell atm are unboxed megadrive/64 doubles but they are unorganized

It wont be for another few hours but it looks like the eb online store is showing copies in stock in my area I will have a call around tomorrow to see if any are in stock or if they just failed to update, do you have a price limit?

[vhal_x]

I have two of the posters :) Won one in a competition, along with a bundle of other RAGE goodies, and obviously got one in the CE xx

Welcome to the forum enjoy your stay and would be nice to see pictures

[kittychloe]

These are gonna be bad images with a few things behind others as I dont wanna rummage around and wake my gf.

I had to separate the cupboards between games and consoles, bottom left is anime and bottom right are doubles and spare cases and manuals.. And a cat...

This is all done from an iPhone so I hope it works out (iPhone is also part of the collection lol.. And eventually an Ngage when I hunt one down)

:welcome:
Welcome to outer haven Kitty, very pleased to see you here and feel free to enjoy your stay :) Good see more Aussies on this site :bday:
May we ask which state you represent? Working night shift must be a :censored:

Hope to see you around more with more pics as well :2cool:

[Cosmic_Link]

Welcome to the boards! ^o^

I'm not one for sealed game collecting either. Don't intend on selling it, so why keep it sealed? lol only exceptions is if I have multiples of something or if I have no reason to open it! :P

I wanted the greek edition of ocarina of time, it came with so much more stuff

Trust me the EBGames one was better. All the greece stuff besides the tin with the seeds in was really cheap and naff... :S The Ocarina that came with the Ocarina edition was awesome! ^o^

http://i1071.photobucket.com/albums/u520/kixxychloe/1a31ae00.jpg

I see an FMA tin down on the bottom shelf! :P Love FMA! ^o^ Managed to pic up all 3 of those tins at a bargain price complete with the series region 1 last year! :D Just missing the soundtracks though, which I didn't realise they originally came with. Must get those... :S

Anyway, enjoy your stay! ^o^

Welcome to the fountain of knowledge,
may your time here bring as much pleasure to you as collecting does:)

[Kusuriuri]

"Thats not a Knife? This is a Knife!" :3

Welcome \0 you have the bioshock 2 collectors edition, so you are awesome to my eyes already, since im a bioshock freak xD

[foreverflash]

All I know is I see a beautiful cat.

:P

Welcome Chloe. You sure do have a mess of controllers and stuff in that second picture. :) Looks like they're used regular...

:taunt:

[fm4dj]

welcome!
nice cat!!
glad to see you have some retro games too ;-)
that master system looks like its in use every day.

[kittychloe]

@fm4dj That cat is my prized collection piece.. the other cat not so much... Im still missing a few things retro wise missing a dreamcast and saturn along with most of the 70's era consoles

@foreverflash most of the ones without boxes are used often or ziptied as extras also go an old vr headset reminiscent of the cheap mcdonalds LCD games in there

@kusuriuri I do have a few knives also if that helps :)

@cosmic link, not sure where the sound track is but someone stole my free stickers that came with them >.<

[kittychloe]

Got a signature now and a slowly increasing photobucket collection of pictures of my collection of collectors editions and games im collecting...

Sorry had to see how many times I could do it.

[themidlandmaster]

Welcome to the forums!

Australia seems to be fairly overrepresented :)

Imgur does pretty good file hosting if photobucket is a hassle

[kittychloe]

I should put these on the first page but I will just update as I have time but there are links to the photo bucket page in my signature.. Sorry about the quality I don't have my slr unpacked...
