Yeah, that's the second container from that seller in the last week or so.  The condition of the games in the other container were pretty mixed, too.  And pricey for what was on offer.

I agree.  It would be a fair bit of work - stripping and parting those beyond repair but still a few good projects worth saving....

Looks to be a buyer with a low feedback - 150 items.

Best of luck to him, and I hope he has a lot of spare time !
