maybe include swap for a time period

That idea has been suggested at least once before that i know of.. AP member 'howzat' did a thread some time ago about this very idea  *%*

He had about five of my pins for a few months a little over a year ago when i as in the process of moving towns and looking for a house to rent.
A few of them i set up for him so they could be played, and a couple i had shrink wrapped which he stored for me. I havent had any of HIS games here though.. well parts of them i have (to be restored)  :lol

I'm not too keen on the idea myself, but it was convenient for both of us at the time since i was moving and needed someone to store a few games, and he got to have some of my restored games to enjoy for a time! He still has my Solar City, which we are seeing if he can sell locally for me as i need the $$$ for bills. If no takers i'll bring it home.

is there a for sale thread or external link for your solar city?

No i havent listed the game for sale anywhere as yet.. i only offered it up on a whim when Ian (howzat) said he had one of his upholstery customers say he wanted to buy a pin and i said 'see if he wants Solar City' since its already at his place. Also selling any of my pins locally i'd be guaranteeing myself work keeping it maintaned  *%*

Two reason i havent listed it for sale anywhere...

One; its not one of my better restores, was done many yrs ago when i was still pretty much just a beginner at that time, and i just dont think its up to scratch to be put up for sale here. It works and plays FLAWLESSLY, but could've done a lot better with the cosmetics.

And Two; i'm really undecided if i want to let it go, i'd probably regret selling it. I'd really like to redo the game to a much higher standard than it currently is.

I'd only offer one my best resto efforts to any AP member  ^^^ Solar City, in my mind just isnt good enough (yet!!)  %$%
