I have for auction on ebay a LARGE lot of these educational Playstation games. Unlike other auctions, these discs are BRAND NEW unless otherwise noted in the auction. They are made by Lightspan. THESE GAMES ARE RARE AND NOT AVAILABLE IN ANY STORES!!! THEY ARE MARKED **NOT FOR RETAIL SALE**. The asking price ($1 each) is really cheap and I send via priority mail....without overcharging shipping!! I have 100% feedback.
All of the discs are ORIGINALS (NOT COPIES). They will work on a Playstation 1 or 2 (ie. PSOne, PS1, PS2, PSX). Collectors have been grabbing these left and right, especially in LOTs like mine.
These are PERFECT for Home Schooling as well!
Playstation COLLECTORS have been grabbing these in bunches!
**If you are curious, search ebay for seller "PSONE_EXPERT"
You can also search for item # 8169829282. If this auction has ended by the time you look at it, please click on the Seller's Other Auctions link with that auction. I will be posting MORE and MORE LOTS of these games (however, lots will be getting smaller so grab them while you can.)
**I Have references within the auction for more information on these games if you would like to do some research before bidding. If you miss this auction, I will be posting another LOT (however a few discs smaller) shortly afterwards.
