View Full Version : Combat Flight Sim Online Auction

These things are gathering dust on my desk and I've no intention of installing them again. With the current problem we're having trying to fund bandwidth, I'm putting them up for sale to the highest bidder.
All items being sold separately and the proceeds are to go to the Sim Outhouse Donations Fund. The auction will end on 12 Feb at noon US Central time. As I'm the one footing the shipping on these, I'm going to have to limit sales to the lower 48 states. Sorry guys.
IL-2 Sturmovik
Jane's WWII
European Air War
Mig Alley
Pearl Harbor Zero Hour
Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe (no manual or case insert)
Combat Flight Simulator with original manual and strategies guide
Combat Flight Simulator 3 in box with manual, key assignment card & mail in card
Crimson Skies (original PC version with extra strategies and tactics book)
All items (except SWOL) are in their original jewel cases with inserts and were purchased new at full price by me. Few have had much time in the CD drive.
So, if you want to contribute to the Outhouse and get some Combat Flight Sims in return, let's start the bidding.

Just to get things started, $5 + shipping for Crimson Skies. I don't know when I'd play it, but what the hey.

Willy,
Holy cow, I can't believe that no one else has bid on any of these. Might I suggest that you post in the other forums. There's got to be someone that wants a copy of CFS 3 at least. Maybe, also, you should let this run for a bit longer since the site was down. Just some thoughts.

I was gonna PM you as you're the only bidder so far, but I'd like to extend the bidding to Friday the 10th if you've no problem with it.
To be honest, I hate to part with 'em but it was the best way I could think of to contribute to the kitty.

Willy,
I would have no problem if you decided to keep it open until sunday night, the 12th. That way, maybe we could get some weekenders involved. I would definately like to aquire Crimson Skies, as long as the price doesn't get to far out of reach.

Ickie, I've already started it and we need to start building up our funds again, so it's on with the auction.
Sunday the 12th works fine. And I'll post a link to the other forums that are applicable.

Willy I still have my copy of CS and my version of the Comic book/Manuel is different from yours....might want to check on the rarity of that.

Ceechow, that's not the original smaller MS manual. My son lost that one for me when he was playing it on my old comp. It's a separately purchased strategies guide with tips & hints on how to get more out of the game along with coverage for every mission in the campaign. It doesn't tell you any cheat codes, etc. but will guide you along through the world of Crimson Skies. Still wish MS had put out a PC version of the CS 2. I'd have sure purchased it.
With CFS 1, I'm including a similar strategies manual as well as the original MS manual as a package deal.
When I preordered CFS 2, it came with the strategies manual as a bonus. Another that my son "disappeared".
Stumpjumper, I know exactly how it is. Cash money is always scarce around the McCoy cabin, so this is my way of contributing to the kitty and build SOH's coffers back up in case we hit another emergency.

Greetings Willy,
I know of someone who would like to have USNF from Jane's. Is it in your collection or does any one know where a copy might be found?
Also, I'm thinking that I might purchase a couple more if you want to let them go.
