Odd subject I know, but sometime last year there was a story of a guy in
California (ish) who had 2 million Atari 2600/7800 games in a cavern
somewhere and he was selling them for $2 a pop.....
Anyone got a link to him?
also, anyone got a spare boxed Magnavox Oddysey they'd like to pass on
to a UK computer museum? :) I'm talking money here....though donations
are always welcome!

If you consider California part of "America's Heartland" then the place
where these are stored could be considered California (ish).

Don't have that one but I do have a web site where I sell 2600 cartridges
in quantity for less than $2 each.
Atari 2600 Games $3 each (4 for $10) (12 for $25) (30 for $50) plus shipping
10 of my choice for $10 plus shipping.
The link is as follows:

When I got rid of the last of my 2600/7800 carts I sold 25 of them for 10
bucks - we were totally bored with them after playing for many years. It's
all in how bad the seller wants to get rid of them.
