That's a relief. I save so much crap and i finally get rid of some stuff and i thought for a minute there i could have tossed some money but i searched ebay a little more and it's kind of a lonely road so i probably didn't lose out too bad by not trying to sell em. I think i still have the old space qwest series in the box somewhere though. Maybe I will try to hock it on eBay someday.

Hoarders with nothing better to collect...

Collecting AOL Disks
[link to www.techdirt.com (secure)]

"There is a growing hobby for people who definitely have too much free time on their hands: they are collecting those free AOL disks that have been sent all over the world. The Wired article talks to a few of the collectors, and they sound pretty obsessive about this scary little hobby. At least they're not spending too much money on it. Mostly they can find the disks for free (though, occasionally some of them resort to eBay for the really rare ones). When someone comes out with a book discussing the value of the various AOL disks will be the point at which it has officially gone too far."

Re: OMG !!!!!! Old AOL disks worth big bucks
The local post office used to have hundreds of them on display, free for the taking... no one ever took them and AOL would send in new ones every month... they had to replace the "old" one with the new ones

some sort of contractual agreement.

I used to go and pick up the ones being replaced.

I'd get several hundred at a time.

they made a nice poor mans skeet

I think TSN was way cooler than AOL. Those disks should be the ones people collect.
