I'm interested in Speedball 2 & Powermonger and postage would be from UK to Germany. Just toss me a PM.
I would happily take all of the stuff but I also have limited storage space and the postage alone would surely kill my yearly budget.

I'd be interested in all of them I suppose, minus one or two anyone else wants. How much is the postage? I live in Reading.

Going by the Parcel Force website, I estimate postage to be around £60 for everything. I won't really know the exact price until I get it all packed and weighed so if you're still interested then let me know.

That's a bit steep. I've had larger packages come which didn't require so much postage.
What about Royal Mail? I know we're considering the dregs here but what's their price?

Like I said, it's just an estimate as I don't know the exact weight. Also, Parcel Force are part of Royal Mail so that may be why it seems expensive?
Keep in mind that all the stuff is very heavy so I can't personally take all it down to the post office as I don't have any transport. That's another reason I looked at using the Parcel Force service - they will pick up the package from me.....and Royal Mail don't.
Anyway, I'll try and get a more accurate price when I get the chance to sort through the stuff and weigh it all.

Just a quick update.....
Right, all the stuff did weigh around 35kg total.....however, someone has picked up the hardware and about half of the floppy discs from me.
All I have left now are the cover discs and the original software.
Combined weight of what's left is now about 15kg - it's still quite heavy with all the floppy discs, big game boxes and heavy manuals etc. So if I sent that by Royal Mail standard parcels then, according to their website, it should cost around £15 - don't quote me on that though as I would still need to pack it all up and weighed officially at the counter.
@commie Are you, or anyone else, still interested in any of the stuff that is left?

People, don't tell me that you will let him trash the stuff...
Additionally, I could use Shadow of the Beast I+II then... same postage ?

Beast 1 & 2 goes to vosla then.
As these are just discs only, I'm guessing p&p will be about £3.....
unless there's anything else you want from the list?
