Mmm, that's a dang nice looking cd add-on. How many pennies did it end up setting you back?
+1 on re-greasing the gears and sled. What's on there now is probably dried up useless.
I don't normally collect cardboard. Really only made the exception lately for some Obey related items. Just something about the nostalgia for me, from either items I owned as a teenager, or wished I had owned (and visited at the local Radio Shack).
So I had to jump on this quickly .. not sure if the price was low, fair, or high. But I wanted it, and I am comfortable with the price I paid (which I think too many people lately worry about what others think was a deal or not)
I got the bundle (and I needed Buster Bros., Sherlock Holmes, Neo Nectaris for my collection and the case/spine to complete my Exile) for $300 Canadian (so ~$250 USD) and it was a local pickup so no shipping (and given the size of this box was glad I didn't need to get shipping on it)
I will look into greasing the gears and sled before I test the unit. Do you know of any links that could show me that process ? or should I ping Turbokon or Keith Courage to ask for how-to help ? I am not someone who typically takes stuff apart these days. So would be a complete newbie with this.
