Old PC Games

Not sure if this is the right place, but it is computer related:).

We have a large box of old pc computer games. The sort that were either on 3.5in diskette, or right at the very start of cds.

They are mainly old d & D games.

I am not sure we even have a pc that would run them now, so I was thinking of listing them.

My question is am I likely to get anything for them (ie is there any interest). Or should I just bin them and recycle the boxes.

Thanks
chev

    check ebay. Ignore the ££££ RARE adverts and tick the completed and sold boxes in the options and see if they do actually sell.

    thanks for the reply. Will do that. I was also wondering if there is a specialist site for old gamers or something?

    Yes there are. I can't give examples but I have a friend who's still into vintage computers and games so I know they are out there.

    I recently donated an old PC to a local charity. When I was checking it over I fired up a few old games before wiping the drives and was surprised at the number of people still playing them on-line.
