KLOV linked to VAPS - since when??

[Guest]

Archived from groups: rec.games.video.arcade.collecting (More info?)

When did this start happening? Or have I been blind to it all these
years?

Pices - Rarity "Rare - there are 2 known instances of this game owned
by a known collector. Of these 0 of them are original dedicated
machines, 1 of them are conversions in which game circuit boards have
been placed in another game cabinet" etc, etc, blah, blah blah.

While technically, maybe true - only two are known to VAPS (and hence
"known collectors") since only two people have bothered to have VAPS
entries AND add that game to it, what a load of old bollox.

I can see it now. eBay - Asteroids, "LOOK @@RARE@@" only 10 known to
exist - LOL!

Pices incidentally just happened to be near "Pink Floyd The Wall",
which I was looking at for some reason. (Which is of course super rare
- 0 copies), didn't know that was a game?

Oh, well. Best get cataloguing all my really rare stuff ready for
auction )

Dunno exactly when? I am there fairly often and always scroll down for
the available manuals link. I can honestly say it happened early this
past week, or the one before.

I think it's neat myself.

Just noticed today myself. Im seriously crossing my fingers that vaps
doesnt get littered with jerks or possers. If so, so be it.

heh... ok.. time to create a vaps entry and give myself 100,000 Major Havok
cabs... maybe then the price will drop because it' won't be *rare* any
more... hey... klov will tell you it's not rare!

Rare? You want to know the rarest games? Eliminator 4 player and
Sarge. I'd have to say 3rd most is a Gauntlet for cryin out loud. I
can pick up a Space Wars before I can find an Eliminator 4 player.
Crazy.

Come to think of it. if a large portion of us posted wrong data on
VAPS, Klov would be entrely inaccurate. Not to say it isn't allready
inaccurate.

I am fed up with VAPS. This is the third time they wiped off all my
info because they never send me an audit email and when I go to the
site to do an audit I cant find the link or page to do an audit. You
cant get intouch with anyone to let them know their is a problem as I
have emailed them many times with no reply so untill they fix the site,
I am done with VAPS. It's a shame as I think theirs a need for the site
but I am not the only one that has given up on it.
